True life, I purchased these IKEA wall ledges while I was on maternity leave for Fitzie and we just recently got around to hanging them in our basement to create a reading nook for the boys.

That’s about par for the course these days as we juggle full-time jobs, traveling for work and getting two kids where they need to be somewhat on time and fully clothed!

And you know what, that’s okay. Both Marcus and I know that this is our forever home, so if updates and home projects take a little while to get to, it’s not a big deal.

I’m obsessed with how this turned out! I also like that it takes up very little space so it could work in homes of any size.

A few of our favorite books:
Technicolor Treasure Hunt
ABC Color
Secrets of Animal Camouflage
Good Night Trains
Otis
Home
Goodnight, Goodnight, Construction Site
Mighty Dads
The Giving Tree
The Little Dumptruck
This Moose Belongs to Me
