These Are a Few of My Favorite Things

• I LOVE cooking dinner for my family every night.  Last night as I was making homemade "skinnied up" tostadas I was thinking about how much I love to cook and how I love that 95% of our meals are homemade.  I love that we sit down as a family at the dinner table, every night, and eat dinner together. 
• I love the time that Brook and I have during the night.  Yes, she is almost 8 months old and still wakes up 99% of nights but as I held her and looked at her last night (as she she was wide awake), my heart just melted.  Even at 3:00am, a big smile from my sweet girl makes it all worth it.  I was the same way with Braxton and rarely asked my hubby to get up because I enjoy this time that I get with my babies. 
• Braxton's love for his sister is another favorite.  Braxton is such a sweet and kind spirited little boy and his voice is just so sweet.  Last night as we were playing in his room, Brook started fussing and he went over to her and said "ok, sissy" "ok, sissy." (It's ok sissy) and during the same play time he decided that we needed to dance so we put some music on and the first person he went to was Brook.  So, I held her in the standing position and he took both of her hands and danced with her for a very long time (my arms might have been burning, haha).
• My nightly cuddles with my little man.  This is something that we literally do EVERY night.  He gets up beside me on the couch or I get beside him and he just nudges and squirms until he finds the most comfortable spot.
