Books About Grandparents

There are so many great children's books out there and though my boys are starting to get a bit too old for many of the picture books I have so many fond memories of reading to them.



We loved reading about families and found so many great stories about grandparents.  Here are a few of our favorites:

What Do Grandma's/ Grandpas Do Best?-- My boys always loved this reversible book about what Grandmas and Grandpas do best.

    Grandpa Bud is a picture book that I enjoyed as a child, and my kids love it too.

    I think I'm still amazed that I am a grandmother! That was always somebody else, somebody much older then me, but now it is me! lol. And it is the most wonderful love I've ever experienced toward my precious granddaughter.

    Thanks for sharing all these great books about grandparents! :-)

    Lots of lovely books here. My kids doesn't have their Thai grands here with them. So this is such a nice reminder of them. Thank you for linking up with us on #FabFridayPost

      Mine are quickly getting there! They'll allow me to read picture books about science, history and geography but even with those I have to be careful they're not to young looking.

Friday Favorites: A Hot Week at Home

Image
We have had a real heatwave passing through that started on Saturday and still has yet to break.  With hot, muggy days we haven't had a whole lot of ambition for anything other than swimming, boating, jet skiing and reading.  Not a bad way to pass the time!



I had plans to meet up with Alec's girlfriend and her mom to drop Alec off with them for the day on Friday.  But first I spent much of my morning on the phone and emailing various people at Alec's new school.  Somehow we missed a few letters and emails telling us he was accepted back in June and going over things like summer reading, making a class schedule, etc.  It was a bit stressful but everyone I talked with was so nice and helpful!  Hopefully we'll get everything sorted out soon.  It's such an unusual year for everyone and I've been warned that even now they aren't really sure what school will look like when it does start up next month.  I used a bit of downtime to start a new puzzle.



While I was …

Friday Favorites: The Week My Husband and I Took a Little Trip to Maine

Image
We had another fabulous week with good weather, good food and lots of family and fun.



We spent a rainy, gray Friday at home.  The boys and I cleaned the upstairs.  We played some card games did lots of reading. I tried to finish up my latest book- The Woman in Cabin 10.



For dinner I made Weight Watchers pizzas and a salad.

The boys had a birthday party to attend on Saturday.  It was supposed to rain but the weather ended up being quite beautiful.  I'm not sure who was more excited the boys or I!  I spent my morning finishing up my book and starting another one-- Big Summer.  Alec began putting together my birthday dessert for my party.  He settled on making some triple chocolate cheesecake cupcakes and it was hard not to swipe one!




In the afternoon/evening we spent a good 4 hours hanging out with our friends in their backyard.  They rent a huge blow up slide and have a small above ground pool and I think the kids spent the whole time between the two (when they weren't eating!…

My Prime Purchases From June

Image
For once I can honestly say I didn't buy that much through Amazon!  Well, for me anyway.  Normally I have to pick and choose what I share here but this month I shared EVERYTHING I bought. With our stores opening back up, we spent more time in stores than online.  That said, I do still find it so incredibly easy to just order what I want and have it shipped right to me!



Health/ beauty products:

Our favorite sunscreen!  I love this brand and any of their scents are fabulous.  I am really loving this coco- mango one. 

The boys needed some more vitamins and the ones we bought last time were out of stock so we tried these.

Ben and Ian needed some more body wash.  Ian likes Axe Pheonix and my husband uses Dial.




I need more shampoo; I like this set of shampoo and conditioner



I also needed more facial cleanser.



Clothing:

I reordered this dress in a larger size and in navy and now I just love it.


I ordered this romper in another color/pattern. I thought this navy/ star pattern was just too …
