what i've been thankful for and a ton of photos

i have been loving seeing everyone "what i am thankful for" photos, lists, tweets, and posts over the past few weeks.  

 i cannot say it enough, we are so blessed.  this thanksgiving will be centered around praising all the joy in our life, starting with the simple things that makes our mornings, afternoons, and evenings uniquely special and truly beautiful.  ...from a snuggle on the couch to a fresh herb bouquet...life continues to give us many gifts and it's only right that we recognize them and share them with one another.  

here are some things i have been thankful for as of late.  i adore these photos and am happy to share them with you all.  

i am thankful for...long aromatherapy bubble baths with miss stella.   

i am thankful for...our charming galley kitchen.  these tin canisters were found at the KC flea and those sweet little pot holders were made by my great grandmother.  

i am thankful for...a little lady who can now feed herself.  she loves that tiny spoon of hers and manages to get most of her food near her mouth.  ;)

i am thankful for...my chapped-lipped sweetie pie.  i love her so much my heart hurts.  i mean, look at that smile.

i am thankful for...quiet evenings spent at home cuddled up in our new home.  see in andrew with stella just makes me feel over-the-moon happy.

i am thankful for...miss stella tenenbaum.  

the other west anderson cast member. hehe.

i am thankful for...a fresh herb bouquet, wild flowers, and a candle for a housewarming gift from some very kind friends.

i am thankful for...a wee one who has found a new obsession: drooling on crayons. 

i am thankful for...hearing him whisper how much he loves her from the other room.  melt.

i am thankful for...those sweet cheeks and a snuggle before bedtime.

i am thankful for...puckering up and getting a slobbery smooch from my lady.  

i could go on and on, really.  there is so much in my life to be happy about.
