Is this book worth getting? I got Go the Eff to sleep as a gift... I assume it was for my child. But not likely going to read it to her until shes 20+ or never, its funny but kind of a wierd gift for a baby shower.
ha ha! You will be able to read Goodnight Ipad to her for sure! Its the newest version of Goodnight Moon. If you don't have that one, It's a classic!
Your family is adorable! I was peeking at your blog. :)
I had never heard of Blog Lovin. Do you like it?
