Rest

After such a busy holiday season (which is still going on-and is wonderful!!) sometimes we just need a little rest. My kids certainly get that-they requested that I made them beds to lay on downstairs.....I completely understand.

snuggly loves

i want to kiss his cheeks all day long

and lay and chat about life with this little gem

These are a few of my favorite things....

making Christmas cookies

just looking at them makes me happy

watching White Christmas with the kids-and Isabelle having to dance with daddy just like the girl in the movie (check out the screen)

the first big snow

little bundles of love

Isabelle's hilarious shovel

my love with his new snow thrower

that face

the "smiles"

sibling love.

                  Merry Christmas...I hope your day is filled with a few of your favorite things!!

Seriously??

So I was happily sitting at my computer....checking email, facebook, etc when I realized I had not seen Isabelle for a few minutes. And yes, a few minutes without seeing Isabelle is cause for alarm since that sweet girl lives attached to me:) Now Judah was asleep so I knew she was not playing with him....so I crept upstairs (hoping to catch her doing something mischievous) and this is what I found.....sweetest little sleepy girl ever!!!

I love this day because...

warm soup and grilled cheese

homemade latte with whipped cream and no bake cookies.....perfection

a bowl of ornaments

dance party to Christmas music with my peanuts

Sometimes my mornings look like this.....

my little babes watching out the basement window at birds-they are buds

my (as of late) early early little riser who is just too cute in those jammies for his own good!!

 what is your morning look like??
