Some little things lately…
Kensington thinks my blardigan is so soft and comfy that I found her sleeping in it.
They were watching an intense episode of Bubble Guppies together (about Pink Foot)…and look how they’re both fretting the same way. Sometimes, they’re so much alike ;).
Sponge Rollers…yes.
She was practicing her selfie :).
Andrew brought me home my favorite candy…love that man.
I love Sinatra and standards. My favorite Sirius Channel is Siriusly Sinatra.
Yes, I’m kissing my Starbucks cup. It’s the little things…like some afternoon caffeine!
Rain boots for rainy days…
Snow!
This kid.
Snow Angels!
I love watching them play games together. They were building a puzzle and taking turns putting the pieces together.
He looks pretty relaxed, doesn’t he? Car, check. M&M cookie, check. Mall with friends, check. Relaxed, check.
I let her pick out her own outfit for dinner on Friday night. I actually think she did a really good job. She’s already into mixing patterns like her mama ;). (And she’s holding up her “diamond” hair clip because when she took off her hat, she put it on her head…but for the picture, you couldn’t see both…so she’s modeling it too.)
Her new haircut 🙂
He was tired at Costco…so naturally, he found a new place to sleep…
…and then Andrew and I found him an even better spot for sleeping :).
And there’s nothing like a hot dog at Costco with your Papa Jay :).
I’m always trying to stop and focus on the little things in my life…because at the end of the day, they’re always my favorite things.
Speaking of little things, my friend Megan has teamed up to do a pre-sale of these super cute plush nativity scenes. Aren’t they adorable?! I know it’s only February but people…these will be gone when Christmas rolls around. Click here to see all of them.
Don’t forget, click here to check out my Meal Planning Mondays!
Have a great day everyone!

Shay…I met your brother and his new bride yesterday at the Tampa Walmart where they were "appearing". We were near the end of the line of 1-200 people…and they treated us as if we were first in line. What a beautiful couple showing God's love to each and everyone who came for their "chance in a lifetime pic" with them! 🙂 They are a blessing that God is going to use in a big way! 🙂
Aubrey says
The pic of your kids fretting is HILARIOUS. They could not be any more precious.
P.S. Did you know that you can get Cadbury creme eggs YEAR ROUND in the UK?! It's one of the biggest perks of living here. If you need a creme egg fix in June, I'm your girl. 😉

That pic of K modeling her outfit is PRECIOUS! LOVE!!!

Kensington's haircut is SOOOOO cute! And that picture of them cuddled up together watching Bubble Guppies? I die.
Narci says
I love that picture of them playing games together!! So sweet!! 🙂
Alison @ Get Your Pretty On says
Yep, we were separated at birth. It's official now. I am always listening to Siriusly Sinatra and standards are the best! Loved that pic of the foam rollers. Great memories! The little things are truly the best.
Tab & Erika says
LOVE that they're snuggled up and a little scared about Pink Foot. My kiddos feel the same way! Well…scratch that…Ebby Lee feels the same way!! LOVE K's new hair!

Oh my goodness! Smith sleeping on the bottom of the cart at Costco KILLS ME!!! Kids are a riot!
Susan Pelizzaro says
It really amazes me that Smith can just fall asleep anywhere! My kids are decent nappers but they're nothing like him! Have a great week 🙂

Your skin is seriously flawless in that picture with the Starbucks! Gorgeous!!!
I look forward to your blog everyday 🙂 Happy Monday!
Elaine Welte says
Twice since sitting down this mornig (about 15 minutes) I have already read two blog posts about Joy and finding the little things… think God might be telling me something?! Thanks for this post today!
{Hi Sugarplum!} says
Such sweet pics of you and the cute family…happy monday!
Maureen W. (Maryland) says
It is so nice that not only do YOU appreciate the little things, but you are raising your children to do the same! XOXO
Katrin says
Love all the pictures of your "little things". It is what makes life so good. My baby loves to cuddle with my blardigan too. I have thought about putting it in his crib at night in hopes that he will sleep better!
kteacher22 says
Could you please share the name of the nail polish that you are wearing in the Starbucks picture? LOVE it!! 🙂
Crystal McDonald says
Kensington's outfit…. PRECIOUS FASHIONISTA! Too cute!!!
Laura Fuller says
Yes, Life is about savoring the little things. Beautiful pictures!
Tammy says
I've been known to kiss my Starbucks cups too. There's nothing better in the afternoon than grabbing a cup of my favorite coffee drink !!!!
Jaren says
Seeing your little ones reminds me so much of mine. They are now 7 and 5 (17 months apart) with my girl older than my boy. They are best friends and worst enemies at the same time. I love those moments when they just play so sweetly together. I wouldn't trade having them so close together for the world though. Our baby girl is 3 1/2 years younger than my son. I find it a little more challenging.
Jeanie says
Your kids are SO CUTE!!
Kate Craig says
My two year old always asks for "pink foot" and it taught her to be "scared of the dark"!

And Smith sleeping in Costco is hilarious!!
It really is sooo true ~ the little things really are the big things!!
Brian and Sarah says
Does it make me a creeper that I totally recognized y'all at Costco on Saturday?! My husband thought I was crazy when I told him "oh my goodness – I read that girl's blog and her brother was the Bachelor! I use her recipes all the time!" 🙂
Ashley @ Fancy Ashley says
Love all these pics! So sweet how they were laying watching Bubble Gups together!!! I am still laughing over Smith sleeping in Costco. Those are the funniest pictures I have seen in a long time! Hope you guys are having a fabulous week! xoxo!
