on my shelf | five books for mom + baby

“when you were too small to tell me hello, i knew you were someone i wanted to know.” emily winfield martin, the wonderful things you will be

{via}
for mom |
+ no-drama discipline by daniel siegel
+ the morning miracle by hal elrod
+ the handmaid’s tale by margaret atwood
+ podcast: parenting great kids with dr. meg meeker (any podcasts you love lately?)
starting to look into more podcasts options + just starting to get discipline advice for our (almost) eighteen month old… please let me know if there are any you love.

for baby |
+ the wonderful things you will be, emily winfield martin (the most beautiful illustrations and message)
+ pat the bunny by dorothy kunhardt (his favorite + i love the vintage feel and he loves to do each page; patting the bunny is his very favorite though)
+ bare and hare – where’s hare? by emily gravett (fun, perfect for counting and he thinks it’s funny)
+ pantone color book by pantone (colorful, creative, and parks looks at it over and over again)
+ if i could keep you little by marianne richmond (cute photos and will make any momma tear up)
i think all of these are great picks to bring to the home of a new baby or a shower in lieu of a card

The Wonderful Things You Will Be is one of my favorites! And Pat the Bunny, too! I still remember loving "daddy's scratchy face" in that one when I was little–so much fun to see my child with the same book! I will definitely check out some of your other picks, especially that podcast! Thanks for sharing@
