Members of the Enoch Pratt library

With the boys loving books as much as they do, we figured that it was finally time to get them their own library cards.  We decided on the Enoch Pratt branch in Roland Park as there is adjacent parking.

It was a beautiful day and the boys were super excited. 

We had discussed that being quiet in the library was essential.  And, they were reminded of this again prior to entering.

We found the children's books and the boys were incredibly excited to see the large number of books available for them to review.  Prior to our next visit, we will do our best to compile a list of our favorite authors to see if there are books available to borrow. 

We were able to read several of the books and make a selection of books to bring home with us.  There was a large pile of books to be returned to the shelves and both boys wanted to picked through this pile and retrieved anything that they could find with an animal on it.

After completing the paperwork, the boys were given their very own library cards. Connor provided his pile of books and handed over his library card. He was so proud of the card and immediately put it in his pocket for safekeeping.  

Besides their library cards, the boys also helped carry out their own books. We were limited on the number of books that we were able to borrow for the first time and were informed that we couldn't borrow any DVDs.  Apparently, when we return, each boy could borrow up to 16 books and a set number of movies.   Before we get to the 16 range, we will have to manage the books we were able to borrow this time.
