Yea, so I’m just a tiny bit obsessed with this little human.  But how could you not be!

His little socks that look like shoes!

His little hand gloves!

His adorable hair for a 3wk old is the just the cutest!

His little long skinny long legs!

His Binky dependency!

His dimples!

His little double chin the appeared in one day!

His fussy face!

His adorable outfits!

His little shivers when he gets out of the bath!

Yea, he pretty much makes me want one of my own.

We love you little Monkey!

Meet our kitty, Mister Linkin, as in Link, as in the video game.  I call him Linkin, Lowell calls him Link, and Bubbs calls him *Grrrrrrowls*.  He’s a sweet kitty who is always underfoot, and thinks that all day is dinner-time, and his favorite spot is behind me on the couch where he can nuzzle my neck and try to eat my hair!  His purrs give me goosebumps, and he likes to “make dough” on my belly.  And his breath smells like tuna.

We adopted him when we lived at our first apartment in Lafayette, IN while Lowell was finishing school.  He was 4 months old, and the cutest little thing we ever did see.  Of course, we only went in to look, and left 30 minutes later with paperwork filed out and an appointment to get him neutered the following day, and he’s been with us every since!

Do you have a kitty?  We’d love to see a photo of your kitty (or kitties) on your blog!  Comment with a link to your blog post featuring your kitty!

This looks almost exactly like our master and our bed!

Love it and MUST DO THIS!

These are such a great gift idea to throw into a gift basket for the holidays!  Or a great gift for a new neighbor to welcome them into the hood.  Or for yourself!

Throw in your own Homemade Marshmallows and your own Graham Crackers (I probably wouldn’t recommend makin your own chocolate), to make them super delicious and something you can be super proud of!

I don’t know about you, but I just LOVE to make things homemade rather than just giving store-bought when it comes to giving gifts.  More personal and shows you care since you took the extra care and time just for them!

YUM!

Visit Twig & Thistle for the DIY instructions on how to make these Smores Kits!

I would die to be able to visit Paris for a weekend, or a week, or a month, or maybe even a year!  Check out Haven In Paris if you’ve ever dreamed of living or visiting there.  It will indulge your every dream & fantasy!

I could probably look at photos of Paris all day long!

These apartments are available for rent and to die for.

Isn’t this apartment just…{fill in the blank}.
