September Reads

1. Potty Training in a Day and tons of little potty training books & videos for Trey. Didn't happen in a day. In fact, I stopped. Now we are trying again. There isn't any pressure since it is just Mr. Adorable and me everyday. Don't you like the photo as if he is cheering for himself. Actually he was cheering because of the Buzz Lightyear underwear.

2. Castle in the Attic and Battle for the Castle by Elizabeth Winthrop. These two were our read alouds at night. We couldn't read fast enough for Trevor who checked it out at the school library.

Great read for boys!

3. Cake Pops by Bakerella. Obviously, I am impressed. I may just make the cake balls and call it good though.

4. The Pioneer Woman Cooks by Ree Drummond. Yup, I checked it out again. Some recipes you cannot get on her blog. Shocking I know considering how many recipes are on there.

5. The Children You Want with the Children You Have by Marie Calder Ricks. I loved this book. It reminded me of my friend Brittany and her wise motheringadvice. I am going to read this again in the spring because she has specific training for the summer. I actually have wonderful children and this book will help me continue to help them.

Happy Reading to You!
