Peeked in Hayley's room last night on my way to bed and saw this...
She managed to stay asleep even with a book fallen over on her head. This girl LOVES her books and insists on a big stack in her bed every naptime and bedtime. She "reads" them out loud (don't ever try to tell her that she is only "looking" at them and not "reading" them) and makes a neat pile on the other side when she's finished. We often struggle with her about how many books she can take with her -- some nights there is not much room left for her!
I had all the kids at the pediatrician yesterday afternoon for McKay and Courtney's annual well-check exams. Hayley sat in the room with a pile of books (from the book basket in the room) and read them out loud to herself. The pediaitrician commented a couple of times about her expressive reading.
(And FYI from the check-up -- McKay now officially weighs 103 lbs! We do need to start watching his weight more as this time his height and weight increase weren't as proportional as they've been in the past.)

What a precious picture! I'm glad she loves books so much - maybe she'll take after her big sister and be an early reader!
