Sittin Pretty!

So Noah has started to like sitting on chairs. I think it's so cute. We've tried to find a chair for him that is a reasonable price but we can't find one. We do have a children's Poang chair from Ikea which he likes ok. Here's a few pictures (He likes to make funny faces when I take pictures of him .. )


He's so cute.
Lately Noah has been waking up in the middle of the night crying and then won't go back to bed. He used to do it and go back to sleep so I thought it was night terrors ... and now sometimes he wakes at 3am and stays up all day. He won't even take a nap. He'll just cry and cry. It's annoying and tiring.
Anyways, I am done reading the Twilight Series. I gotta say ... the only book I really liked was Twilight. Breaking Dawn was very disappointing to me. I heard the there was anthor book called Midnight Sun that I guess won't be published because it got leaked. I would've loved that book because it was similar to Twilight but Edwards version. I still think it should be published but oh well.

Twilight Series

Ok, so I was really against reading these books for a long time. One, I am NOT a reader. I don't think I've read a book for the last 5 years I've been with aaron (not counting pregnancy books, I felt OBLIGATED to read those). Two, people here talk about these characters as if they are real. I seriously have to laugh about it. One of my good friends, Melissa, always tells me how much she "loves" Edward. I am always like, "you know he's a fictional character, right?" I just think it's amusing because I've never been that way in books.

So, anways, Aaron bought me the book Tori Spelling wrote, So Nortorious (which is a really good book) and I read it in two days. He was amazed because I never read. He was really interested in me reading the Twilight books. He finally bought me the first book and I was hesitant. I have to really REALLY like a book to read it all. If it doesn't interest me, then forget it. I am surprised by how captivating the first book was. I read it in two days. (now, I read fast, but i also skip boring parts. If there is a part that doesn't strike my interest or it goes on for way too long I can't read it. Maybe that's wierd but I can get the gist of the book without have to bore myself to death)

So, Aaron bought me the second book of the series, New Moon, and I was so eager to read it. I was actually sick the day after he got it so I spent the entire day reading it. Ok, so I am not so fond of the second book as I was with the first. The first is about vampires and the second about warewolves. I actually had to skip a lot because it was so long and drawn out. It was so boring to me, but still intriging enough for me to finish it in one day.

I borrowed Eclipse and Breaking Dawn from my sister in law, Breann, and I just finished Eclipse and I was happier with that book, but also it was predicitable to me. Now I am reading Breaking Dawn and so far so good.

The only thing about these books is that they're SO DESCRIPTIVE. I would have to say that these books are rated PG-13. LOL. I would still have to say I like the first book better out of the last two ... but they are still very intersting and I am surprised of how into them I am.

Anyways, that's my life these days, being a book worm. I guess I am catching up for all the years I was a horrible student in high school.
