libby at the library

Last weekend we discovered that they have story time at the downtown library every weekend. We weren't sure how Libby would do, but we decided to give it a try. She loved it!
They had a big saltwater aquarium and she loved checking out the fish. When we walked in to story time, she squatted down, looked over at the little boy next to her and said, "hi!" She was certainly the most animated, but overall was very well behaved (pardoning a few awkward moments where she'd stand in front of another kid and just stare at them).
After story time, we looked at a few books (see photos and video below). If we had let her, she'd probably still be there. Taking a book off the shelf, walking over to the table, opening one page of the book and returning to the bookshelf for another book. Over. And over. And over.
Because she had so much fun, we're heading back tomorrow and meeting up with our dear friends the Whites for a little story time followed by lunch at Lavomatic, one of our favorite weekend restaurants.
Here's to enjoying our city now that it's finally thawed out!

Maybe we can go to the Story Time at the library next week before I go home.

Oh Libby our little scholar.

You look great Sarah.

Aw, how sweet! I came across this post while looking for info about the library's Summer Arts program, which is a series of weekly activities (everything from container gardening to dance to painting "art" on the windows) for children.

When the time comes, you guys should check it out--I usually volunteer and wind up having more fun than the kids!
