Mornings with Merrilee

Merrilee is such a good little girl.  Every morning we take her out of her crib and let her kind of roam around to play and do whatever.  Without fail, every morning we see a scene like this...


Merrilee will sit and read books for an hour at a time! She is usually very gentle with her books and we've only had one or two book casualties from moments of despair.  She'll turn the pages and "read" to herself.  She even does cute little voice inflections like she's reading in her own baby language. Lately her favorite book is Chicka Chicka Boom Boom. She'll read it by herself, but she will also bring it to either me or Ben several times a day for us to read it to her. We are proud parents of our little reader! :)

jealous! Jackson loves bringing me books, but has about a 5 sec. attention span for them. Merrilee looks so cute among all those magical pages of books :)
