#LittleDude
blurb

Went for a nice #audiowalk today — it was our first in over a week due to the recent heat wave we‘ve been surviving in DC. In honor of the Peculiar Children (whose stories intrigue me) #LittleDude & I walked to the Mushroom House. My mom used to walk me here when I was a kid (another perk of living in my childhood neighborhood!)

Very glad I gave the #audiobook for this sequel a chance. It‘s a different narrator & that‘s making such a difference.

JSW I love funky houses like this! There‘s one near me that I call the hobbit house for its rounded roof and low, squatting frame. 6y
britt_brooke So cool!! 6y
SassyBookworm That is awesome!! 6y

MicheleinPhilly Do people live there? 6y
lauren.lerner Yes! @MicheleinPhilly It was actually up for sale recently and for about ten minutes, we considered selling our house and buying it lol. 6y
MicheleinPhilly HA! That‘s awesome. From the outside it looks like it would be claustrophobic but the inside looks very open and expansive. 6y

A gift from my mother for my first #MothersDay. She gave it to me at lunch with my grandma & #LittleDude at a local estate-museum (Hillwood) on Friday. I immediately opened it and read aloud, much to her amusement and my grandma‘s bemusement. I can‘t wait to share Cookie Monster and Sesame Street and Wonder Woman with 👶🏻 when he‘s old enough!!

Leftcoastzen Yay cookies! 6y

#LittleDude had some shots yesterday so he‘s a bit needy today and wants to nap on Mama. Moments like this are why I‘m glad I keep my #kindle in his room!

Took a two hour aimless walk around my neighborhood yesterday with #LittleDude powered exclusively by listening to this book. Every time I thought it might be time to go home, I‘d tell myself just one more chapter.....

I think I‘m an #audiobook convert, y‘all! 👌🏻

SomedayAlmost Aren‘t they freeing? All that kid laundry (I swear It multiplies while we sleep) becomes reading time! 6y
CoverToCoverGirl I listen to at least one audiobook a week.. 😍 6y

#friyayintro time!

1. Seeing Cirque du Soliel tomorrow with my hubs & our BFF, otherwise keeping it low-key this weekend. 🤸🏻‍♀️
2. I don‘t have a preference, each has its place. 🍩🍡
3. LOL I definitely haven‘t finished anything yet this month. 😂
4. #LittleDude now giggles & says “hi” unprompted. He‘s also working on sitting up unassisted! #19weeks 👶🏻
5. If you‘re seeing this, consider yourself tagged if you want to play along! 📚💗

Some recent #LittleDude-related #bookmail. ???

Clearly I am terrible at keeping to a #bookbuyingban. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

asiriusreader Bought Baby Signs recently for my two month old! Good intro to baby signing. 6y
lauren.lerner I don‘t think I knew you had a baby, congratulations @asiriusreader!! 👶🏻🎊❤️. I like the book a lot. I took ASL in college, really excited to use a version of that with Little Dude. 6y
asiriusreader @lauren.lerner thank you!! Yes — we had a sweet baby girl in early Feb. and of course, we are in love. 💗 enjoy signing with your little one!! 6y

The Book of Joan: A Novel | Lidia Yuknavitch

Now that his stroller is here & the weather is improving, #LittleDude & I are finally able to get out & do some walking! Our first long walk was to the library earlier this week to pick up this book which I‘d forgotten I put on hold because it took that long for it to come up for me. 😂

Joan of Arc in space calls for a space-themed bookmark. #irememberwhenplutowasaplanet #oldAF#currentlyreading

rubyslippersreads I have that bookmark too. 😄 6y
StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego That book mark 😆 6y

I was going to skip a month but I couldn‘t resist these two April #BOTM picks. My #TBR is completely OOC and after this I really do have to be on a #bookbuyingban for a while — #LittleDude doesn‘t allow for much reading time and my #TBR and #BOTMtbr shelves are literally overflowing! 📦📚

What did y‘all pick this month?

SilversReviews I read THEN SHE WAS GONE. It was good. ENJOY!! 6y
Eggs How is #thelittledude??? 👦🏻👶👋🏻😊 @lauren.lerner (edited) 6y

One of my best friends sent me these soon after I told her I was pregnant and I‘m just now finally getting around to looking at them. Now that he‘s almost 12wks (or 4wks adjusted because he‘s a preemie) to get #LittleDude on a schedule ASAP; hoping I‘ll find some useful insights/tools inside these covers. (Wish me luck getting any reading done!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻)

Do you have a favorite baby or parenting book that you recommend? 👶🏻📚

1. #nightfeeding with #littledude. 🚰 🍼
2. The Night Shift via Netflix. 🚑
3. Currently attempting to read a bunch of stuff but not far enough into any of it to recommend yet.... 📚
4. It‘s still dark out & the snow that fell last night is gone; forecast calls for cold & rain today. ☔️
5. A star on my hip; double pierced ears & a cartilage piercing. Had a nose piercing for about a decade but I let that close five years ago. ⭐️

Cinfhen This photo brings me JOY 😍 6y
Suet624 Love this photo. 6y
Chelleo Those were the days 😊 6y
lauren.lerner There‘s something very special and sweet about those middle of the night feedings, @Cinfhen @Suet624 @Chelleo. I know these days won‘t last for long so I‘m enjoying them while I can! 💗 6y
