We got a Kindle for Christmas and have been exploring this new-to-us world. Recently we discovered that you can check out books for your Kindle from the local library! How awesome is that? This might be old news to you, but just in case you are like us and new to this type of stuff we thought we would pass it on!

To see if your library offers this option we recommend typing in your county + the word library + books for Kindle into google.

Example: Thurston County Library Books for Kindle

 That was the fastest way to get the check-out page. Once there search for your desired book and place a hold or check it out! Our library sent us an email that then walked us through the steps to placing it on our device. 

Our first check out?
Half The Sky
Reviewed here. Happy Reading!
Anyone have those moments? We do all the time. Start telling a cute kiddo happening and poof! It is gone as quickly as it came. Unfortunately so much is happening right now that tracking it all is very difficult. Baby Love is so amusing and we don't want to forget an antic or episode. Which is why we are in love with these following items and look forward to seeing how they help us document our very documented little proteges.

LOVE this idea! One simple line, that is all it takes.

Simple, easy to use, colorful and all in one place. Can't wait to show this to our grandkids someday.

So messy, but oh so fun and outside of my normal Type A picks.

Purchased this for Kevin for Father's day and can't wait to have the adorable pages filled.

And TONS of these!

We have stacks of these all over our house and whenever a memory comes to mind or is created, we run to scribble the date and details in short hand (heaven help the translator).  These will be pasted all over that lovely journal that was purchased awhile back and has only a handful of complete entries.

How do you document your little ones precious moments?
...The Bachelor just did their hometown visits on Monday and one of my favorite moments was when Constantine's father expressed the importance of working at a marriage in order to keep it healthy. This is something most of us have heard, but I am not sure many of us truly understand. What does it mean to "work" at a marriage? And how does a couple stay motivated to continue this calling, year after year? We of course have our own thoughts, but would love to hear yours! So please, take a second and pass on your pearls of wisdom.
