Hobby or something more!? Books, books and more books!

In order to finish clearing out the nursery for painting and furniture delivery I emptied all of the book cases in there and in the office. We are going to flip the office in order to fit a third matching book case for my books that were in the studio.

I put all of the books lining the hallway and, wow! It doesn't seem like so much when they're on the shelves. But, laid out like this I think we could open a small book store. This does not include any baby books we have or the books I have at school. I'm also thinking about the many Eric Carle books I added to the Target registry and those I know we'll collect for her. I already know I want to get a small book shelf for her room asap.

I try reading my books to her out loud when I'm home alone, but I feel a little silly. Sometimes I grab one or two of the books she has already and read them aloud. But, I know once she's here we'll be reading to her ALL the time and we won't feel silly at all.
