Book recommendation from Elijah

I picked up this book at the 57th Street Children's Book Fair last weekend. I had been closely examining the Curious George books and books about trucks (we got a steam shovel one) and at the last minute I grabbed this one without really looking that closely at it.  It had animals and it was a board book and those were really the only things that caught my attention. But...Elijah thinks it is the funniest thing we have ever read.  He started cracking up the first time I read it.  He was laughing so hard that it was making me laugh so I could hardly read it! What makes him like this book so much, I can't really say, it's a cute story - kind of like the old woman who swallowed a fly, they keep sending in more animals to catch the other animal.  Seriously, I read the book three times last night and he kept making the sign for "more". Maybe your kid will not find it as funny but Elijah highly recommends it.

Before 9 am

Elijah slept until 8am this morning! Normally, he starts making noise between 7:15 and 7:30 while I'm taking a shower. I finally went in to his room, you know to make sure he was still breathing.  He was waking up and as soon as I got him out of bed, he wanted me to read him books.  Then I was changing his diaper and he was throwing away the wet diaper before I put his dry diaper on, which was dumb on my part.  Yep, you guessed it, pee all over the floor (but you gotta love the hardwood floor).  The walk to daycare was full of talking (about what I don't know). As soon as we get to daycare he kisses me and says b-bye before I even take off his jacket.  I kind of like being able to take our time in the morning and not feeling rushed, but if you are thinking about having kids, this is what a morning looks like.
