Books

These are a few of our most favorite books. Books that are read over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over...

... you catch my drift.

Lincoln loves this book. It has almost fallen completely apart. When we are not reading this book, we are talking about it. Team Swish is always on the look out for pond monsters and shadows.

Goodnight Gorilla has been the #1 book for Lincoln, {Lila too, but mostly Lincoln,} from the beginning. (We are talking very beginning here people. Like just a few months old!) Lincoln has always adored this one and it began his infatuation with first 'mon-ees', and then gorillas. Man, this kid loves gorillas.
Miss Lila has this next book memorized. No page skipping on this one! It is a cute story that these twins think is awessssooommmmeeee. (DJ Lance Rock voice.)


Dr Seuss was a genius. We read all of his books often, but Mr. Brown is a favorite. Especially if daddy reads it. What is it with men and sound effects??? Must be in the chromosomes because they just come out knowing how to make them.

Hooray for Fish is a gem. We love all the fish especially the gripey fish, the win fin-fin fishes and the pineapple fish. It just is so dang cute.

We read so, so many books. I love books, Brian has grown to love books and hopefully Lincoln and Lila will continue growing their love of books.

It would just make me so happy if they did.

  1. You know NOTHING makes me happier than to see these kids love books so much! You know, I know, why doesn't everyone know that reading to our kids is THE most important activity we can share with them. Keep reading, Team Swish!
