When I was pregnant I swore that I would read to Harper every night starting from the day she came home from the hospital. And, while she was little, we would take turns trying to read to her in the evenings. However, like most itty bitty babes, she had no interest in sitting and looking at a book. More often than not, she would become bored (and fussy) by the second or third page. So, my plan of reading to Harper on a nightly basis quickly crashed and burned.
However, now that Harper is getting older, she is finally starting to appreciate the pictures in books. She likes turning the pages and is especially fond of pop-up and feeling (soft, furry, etc) books. Although she still has a short attention span, we now can sometimes get all the way to the end. Perhaps it's time to reinstate the nighttime book!
