Books

Ever since Gabe was really little, maybe 5 months old, and we started his bedtime routine, we read him books.  Gabriel has always loved books and having them read to him.  It's still part of is bedtime routine.  Bennett has trouble staying awake and it has just been easier to put him straight to bed.  Now that Bennett isn't nursing to sleep, Scott is getting some great one on one time with him and reading to him before putting him down. 

This is all happening while Gabe and I are reading my old Berenstain Bear books.  Gabriel cannot get enough of these books, and as I read them as an adult I love the message in every book.  We have at least 25 books and Gabe is engrossed every night and has to read himself to sleep(just like his dad).

Since the new bedtime routine, Bennett can be seen with more and more books.  Scott and I could not be happier with this change.  And besides, he is crazy cute when reading.
