Harry Potter - Love It!

I started reading the boys the Harry Potter series this summer.  They love it...and I might love it even more :)  We're only on the second book...which is also cool.  It's awesome to know our nightly tradition of snuggling in Mommy's bed with Potter will continue for at least another year I'm guessing! 

Tanner remembers every detail and spoils so many surprises with his deductive reasoning.  He's very serious about it.  He's also going to be Harry Potter for Halloween.

Alex is LISTENING AND COMPREHENDING...so cool!  The language and verbiage is a little complex but he's surprisingly keeping up!  The first half of the first book he didn't want to listen, so I let him read Garfield in bed next to us.  Mr. Multi-tasker got hooked though halfway through however and now listens intently without other distractions.

When we finish the book, we watch the movie.  We're all very excited for the next movie.  I hear they get a little dark as the series continues, but maybe having read the book already the movies won't seem so scary (at least that is what I am hoping).

So we're reading the series of books passed down from Aunt Jenny/Uncle Ricky, and the fellas are already talking to Emily and Adam (their cousins) about passing them their way next.  So fun to pass things like this through the family  :)
