Shhhh... don't tell the girls

but they have surprises in the mail now! I absolutely L.O.V.E. children's books! My mom and dad still have a bookshelf full of books they read to us when we were young. I am so grateful for parents that shared their love of reading. The other night Emily and I were discussing favorite Christmas books and I knew I had to send some to the girls. These are just a few of my favorites! I hope they love them. :)

Olive is for Maddie. You will notice Alli and Emily also have ornaments. I mailed Maddie's the other day with orders I was sending to my sister.


Here is Alli's ornament. I just LOVE my ornaments from over the years with my name and I know they will too.



Sorry this one is turned... blogger is not really a good friend of mine. I thought Alli would love the one about Little Critter. It even comes with a CD.

Emily Claire... my buddy. She is growing so fast.

I adore Fancy Nancy and could not pass up Auntie Claus. Emily LOVES to read! She is always asking what letters spell and is at a point where she really enjoys reading to us. I miss her crawling up in my lap and reading the same book over and over and over again to me. I cannot wait to read these with her at Christmas.

What are some of your favorite children's books?
