i love my kids

Of course I do, for so many reasons.  Very often though I just want to capture the precious things that they do and hold on to them.  Then a week or a month goes by and they are gone- not the amazing children of course, but the little things that were making me smile.  Lately, here are the things that I have been loving. 

Playing peek a boo with Beckham

Drinking coffee in the morning with Jov.

Watching my kids be themselves around each other.  Like Jovie wildly dancing and jumping off of the fireplace while B sits and calmly watches and appreciates her.

I love that it is not mandatory for Jovial to be a princess.  She loves to just hang out with the guys in her tennis shoes as well. 

Jov is creative.  This is what she did with her valentine stickers.

My sweet man is so happy.  He loves to play outside.

Jovial loves to go on dates with her daddy.  This one at Tazzaria was pre dance class. 

My kids seem to really value the friends in their life.

I love to watch them be artists.

 good sharing B

Jovie is down with dressing up to watch the Lakers with daddy.

I have LOVED watching Jov in her ballet class.  She soaks in everything she can and I can see that she loves it. 

She is such a good listener.

silliness. love.

I really need to get pictures of them holding hands in the car.  I also need to get video of Beckham playing with playdough which is his new love.  He (my 17 month old boy) will sit in his high chair for 30+ minutes while molding and slicing and poking.  I also need to get video of him saying Jovie's name which he started yesterday.  It sounds like this, "da sheeeee!  da sheeeee!"
