So, the other day Ezra, Luke, and I had nothing to do, after the sixth straight day of rain. (We received a lot of rain because of hurricane Fay that hit Florida.) We decided to go check out the local library. Suprisingly, it has a really neat children's area with art tables, couches, lots of really big stuffed animals, a table full of puzzles, a puppet theatre, story time, days they do art projets witht he kids, and other fun activities that go on during the week. The library is decorated in the theme of Where the Wild Things Are and it has trees and a mural of the monsters and is really really neat. Ezra loves the library and he picked out a bunch of books for us to read. One of these books happened to be a book called pigsty, by Mark Teague. It is a great book about a boy who doesn't keep his room clean and pigs come and take over his room. Well for some reason Ezra really internalized the book and now is always concerned about us leaving his room or the house messy in fear that pigs will come and live here. It is hilarious, aren't three year olds sweet!

Must find that book for my boys...surely the reaction will be different, but it's worth a try huh? He is so cute!
that is so cute! So...you're there. How many times have I thought about calling you and having you over...sigh. regrets now. Well, I'm glad that you are over there and safe and please keep us updated.
I miss you already.
Ha ha, I miss that very funny little boy and all his great comments!!! :) I love that he is scared of pigs taking over your house now...hey whatever makes them clean right?! ha ha... call me...i called you back the other day but only got your voicemail again:(
Good to know! Just in case Sadie didn't inherit a love of cleaning from her parents, I'll have to keep that in mind for later down the road.
Sounds like a cute book! Congrats on the move! Hope you are loving it there.
Hey! I didn't know that you had moved!!! Well I hope that you are loving your new home! Anyways, I have been wanting to take the kids to the library forever and you have officially inspired me to make it happen!!! I will have to look for that book :-) Good luck with everything!
That is funny-- I will keep that book in mind when I have kids.
Hi, it was good to talk to you! Hope you are feeling settled;) Love the book...definitely gonna try that out on my kids (do you think a 10 year old will fall for it??) Excited to see your place, post some pics when you can. Take care!
What a fun library. It's nice to find a fun place to take the kids for free. And I love he is worried about the piggies. How helpful it will be when he picks up after himself. That is great!
We love the library! I'll have to look for that book- it looks cute.
