Morning Hair and Library Books


This was an extreme enough case of morning hair (well, after-nap hair) that I thought I would document it for Clark's posterity. Apparently, I take police line-up style pictures of my children. Clark looks like all he needs is a number to hold up in front and the height lines behind.


Bruce also wanted to be in on the action. He had been up a little longer and was much more chipper. He seems tall for almost 2. Generally I try to avoid a messy room scene if I can, and I guess that leads to this style of pictures.

(As a disclaimer, I'll let you know that we went to the library which always ends up with a room littered with books until the excitement of the "new books" wears off after a few days. At least they're excited about reading... It's a trade-off I guess.)

We've been into nature/science books recently. Snakes, lizards, bugs, airplanes, etc. I attribute this newfound interest to Uncle Mike, who spent a lot of his visit hunting/catching lizards and frogs. Clark's made a request for volcanos next time.

Bruce is mostly into board books, due to the aforementioned book ripping. These incidents are fairly regular, but usually reserved for older books which are showing some wear (which are usually the ones that WE own). Personally, I like to read books with a good rhythm and rhyme. Like Dr. Suess and "Bear Wants More".

Most contested book from this library trip: A field guide to amphibians and reptiles.

  1. YAY story time!! I love going to the library. :) Remember how you used to come over and we'd just read books sometimes. Morgan and I do that for dates occasionally. :) Love the nap hair. Morgan, his dad and his brother all have hair like that when they sleep. :) I love it!
