Last night Aiden read his first book! It was a library book titled "Electricity." This is huge for him. He's very resistant to sound out words and read books by himself. (Even though I know he can it). He was so proud of himself that he read the book twice and his grin was so precious. Another milestone checked off, sigh.

Book about "electricity", hmmm...following his daddy's footsteps? Way to go Aiden, reading books is awesome!
Yeah Aiden! Audrey recently got over a reading "bump" herself. She read "Pinkalicious" last night and now thinks reading is "just great!" She was also resistant to sounding out words. For us it was just semantics. We've always told her what a great problem-solver she is - so once I started using the phrase "work it out" or "see if you can figure this one out" she was much more receptive to slowing down and sounding out a word. Aren't they funny??!!
And oh my goodness, Aiden looks so much older than I remember!
