First Trip to the Library

     Today was a rainy day, so we used the opportunity to take Madison to the library and spend some time looking for books together.  The librarians brought her stickers and bookmarks while Mommy and Daddy looked into the pre-school storytime reading schedule.  

     Madison picked a few books (she's suddenly into "Maisy" the mouse), while we found a few children's books about fall, and one funny children's book by Garrison Keillor which had us cracking up.  It's called "Daddy's Girl," and you might as well go ahead and put it on Daddy's birthday list.

     While the rain poured outside, Madison explored the library and had to be constantly reminded about how to behave in a library:  "Shhhhhhh!  Indoor voice please!"

     Actually, we were in the children's section - and that sort of behavior, though not necessarily encouraged, is somewhat expected.  What I'm saying is, don't expect to go to the children's section if you're doing intense research for a term paper!  

     We'll be back for the Storytimes, where each week the library follows a different theme as they read to children (and parents).  It was a nice first trip to the library, and something good to do when it's pouring rain outside. 

     Well, we've got some great books waiting...so if you'll excuse me, we're all going to go do some reading!
