We like books in this house. All of us. Even Lucy likes them. She chews on them and tries to grab them from her sister. Britton would let us read to her all day. We try to keep the reading time to about an hour. We are also strong believers in trying to create a balanced life.
But our book addiction is a little out of balance. It makes up for our lack of tv time. Or, that is what we tell ourselves when we go to the bookstore. Plus, we are trying to create an entire library of our own. We've even designed our own house with a huge library. It's beautiful. Aaaah. Maybe we aren't quite balanced.
But we were very very excited to find out about paperbackswap.com! This is a really great place to get rid of some of the books that have just been laying around. I've already sent four old recipe books out and have something coming my way. It is all so exciting and I just can't wait for the magical day when my new free book has arrived in the mail.
My only problem is I might run out of books to swap.

What's your user name on paperback swap? I wanna be buddies~ and I want to see you list...isn't grand? I've always wanted to live in a library... I used to day dream about living in the Fairwood library.. in Kent... when I was kid... good times.
We are book lovers too. That is my biggest sigh about our house right now - not enough book shelves. I've often thought it would be fun to get a job as a librarian. I'll have to check paperback swap - I've never heard of it. Cool!
Paperbackswap is the BEST!! I've gotten a lot of homeschooling books through there. We got rid of almost all of our books before we moved and I'm in the re-stocking phase, it's pretty fun :)

We love books too! I will have to look up that website.
Did you paint stripes in Britton's room? How cute!
