Another trip to the used book store !


The Wheels on the School Bus by Mary-Alice MooreAnimal Strike at the Zoo by Karma Wilson

I love scholastic books ! This was quite a find, I had just seen the story books at Barnes and Noble. Although these are soft cover books, the illustrations are nice and of coarse my son loves them. I have taught him since a young age (he's 20 months old) to always respect books. While this policy currently only applies to non-pop-up books. I don't have to worry that he will rip up the books. So, the fact that they are not the hard cardboard is fine. Definitely $2.00 well spent :)

8.29.13--UPDATE
So, the fact that the story of the wheels on the school bus is not the same as the wheels on the bus has been the downfall of this book. My son loves, loves, loves the song 'the wheels on the bus' and the fact that the book's story line doesn't match the song lyrics has made him hate the book :( The graphics have also been too overwhelming for his age. Meaning, that there is a lot of details in each page making it hard for him to locate items when I ask him to search for something. So, for right now that book has gone in his 'when he grows up' pile. Maybe someday he will like the book.

Leachco - Cuddle-U Nursing Pillow and More, Jungle

This nursing pillow is a great alternative to the boppy pillow. The extra seating accessory is great for wiggly babies. The item can be purchased at walmart for $20 compared to the $50.00 for the boppy pillow. You should consider purchasing two: one for the traveling and another for home.

UPDATE : 8.29.13
Baby #2 is on her way !! hooray!! As I sort through all of the baby items I have from my first child, this nursing pillow is definitely staying. For me, my son never need the seating accessory but maybe baby #2 will will need it. Overall definitely $20 well spent. I have purchased a lot of baby items over the last two years and I can honestly say this had been on of the best!
