Day 74 (3/15/11) - Storytime

This morning we attended storytime at the local library.  The theme of today's session was ducks, which absolutely thrilled Gavin.  The librarian read 5 books about ducks; each time she turned the page and Gavin saw a new duck he would gasp, point excitedly and quack loudly.  We attracted a lot of attention! 

Afterward, the boys played in the children's area.  Ryan spent most of his time on the kids' computer and Gavin played with foam blocks and puzzles.  It's only a matter of time before Ryan is teaching me how to use a computer and all the other latest technology! 

Before we left, we explored the aisles of children's books.  Ryan checked out a book about airplanes to give him an idea of what to expect when we fly to Jamaica next month.  He also got the football book, "Family Huddle," written by Peyton, Eli, and Archie Manning.  It's a cute story that describes basic football plays such as the button hook, quarterback sneak, fade, and hook and ladder.  I read both books to him at least 3 times today!  Gavin discovered the book, "Toot Toot Beep Beep,"which is written by the same author who wrote his favorite book, "Tip Tip Dig Dig."  He has carried it around everywhere with him, not letting it out of his sight for a minute.  In fact, at bedtime, after reading it to him, he insisted that I put it right next to his crib since I wouldn't let him sleep with it!

  1. Sounds like the Mann family was noisy in the library: Quack, Quack, hut, hut, toot, toot, beep, beep!
