When Vienna was only a few weeks old, a salesman stopped at our door in attempt to sell us some educational books for children. With a fresh brand new baby in our arms, it wasn't hard to convince us. Now we just laugh about it because it was totally an unnecessary, impulsive buy, but...oh well.
But despite our spur of the moment splurge, it seems to be paying off. Vienna is especially benefiting from one of the books specifically...awhile ago she suddenly became interested in this specific book- because of the animal pictures. At first she only wanted to look at the animal page and then would be done. However, now she'll read the whole thing as we describe all the pictures, and sometimes she just likes flip through it by herself. I thought these pictures were just too cute not to share. :)
She gets really excited about animals. She's learning to say their names but already knowns several sounds that they make. My favorite is her duck "quack" and her horse "neigh." I ask her all the time what certain animals sound like just because it's so cute to hear her version of them. :)
20 months old and soaking things up like a sponge. I've said it before, but I'm going to say it again, it really is awesome to watch her learn and experience life.

That is such a fun age!! She is a doll!!
Aww. She is so cute. Great pictures. I know what you mean about them soaking things up. It is crazy the things that Sam and Simone are learning... and most of the time it catches Anna and I by surprise. We think that they are not paying attention and then they repeat things back to us a week later.
I hate those book salesman! But Vienna is absolutely adorable! Glad she is loving the books! That's the key to early reading in my experience!
