I cant even explain enough how much Daxton is enjoying books these days. Basically anywhere we are he can spot any book in the room and want nothing to do with me and just discover it. Every morning when we come down stairs I put him down and he immediately crawls over with all the excitement one boy can have, looks at the book case of a couple dozen books and seems to find his favorite 4. "I love you Stinky Face" "The Monster at the end of this book" "Barnyard Dance" and "Where is Puppy?" He finds the smooth side, (the spine) quickly flips it over so he can pry it open and start turning the pages over and over again enjoying the illustration. McKay and I love it when he is reading he looks very wise or how he intensely reads by jabbering away like a pro as if he has been reading his whole life. Reading to him is even more fun.  He loves listening to the excitement and different pitches in our voice. Hes getting so BIG!
