Submerged by Dani Pettrey

Bailey Craig has been running from her past for many years now. But when tragedy strikes, she is forced to go back to the small town in Alaska and face the ghost of her past. And Cole McKenna, the one person she most desperately wishes not to meet again, is one of the first people she runs into. The two are forced to work together when it appears a murder is one the loose and Bailey could be the next target.

Submerged by Dani Pettrey is a great beach read for the summer. High energy action, interesting location and just enough romance to keep anyone turning the pages. I also liked the bit of history and folklore that was mixed in. The characters may have been a bit farfetched at times, but they are likable and most will find one or two characters to relate too. If you are looking for a book that will draw you in on the first page and not let go until the end, this is the one for you. I would certainly read the books that are to come in this series. If they are out this summer, they will be in my beach bag.

I was given a copy of this book by Bethany House. All of the opinions are my own. I was not required to write a positive review.

He's Rolling!

Gideon has master rolling this week and sometimes, he is not too happy about it... He can go from his back to his belly all on his own. And if you lay him on his belly propped up on his elbows, he will roll over to his back.
He started rolling in his crib at nap time, so that means no more swaddling. Which also means we have to relearn sleeping through the night. He has done two nights swaddle free, which have gone okay. He stirs a few more times during the night, but I only got up once to actually feed him so he will settle back to sleep. So, not too bad and hopefully we get back on track quickly.

A Farm Boy Already

I don't fully understand how this happens, but Gideon already loves the tractor. If he is in the kitchen or the living room and he hears the sound of the tractor, he crawls to the closest window and has a look outside. When he sees it, he often starts drumming on the window sill, so excited. He repeats a little "T" sound, like he is trying to say tractor. He hasn't actually gone for a ride in the tractor, yet. But I think he will be pretty excited to that some day soon.

Storybook Character Day 2016

Today was Storybook Character Day at Joash's school. I tried to make it easy on myself and encouraged Joash to use one of the costumes we have on hand. So, he picked the chef costume and took the book Sam the Chef. Notice anything about his face? I didn't have time to take a picture before school and we got a call right around lunch time that Joash had a pretty bad fall on the asphalt at school during recess. He was pretty shook up about, so I went to pick him up early today. He seems pretty much his normal self now, so we are not too worried. And of course, school pictures are on the 31st, so we will have to see how well he has healed by then.
