Sunday night we were watching Aladdin together and while the boys were giggling together over the antics of Genie, the magic carpet and Abu, I was struck by the utter adorableness of BB’s new cotton tights. Really. Yes, I know – so many things in this picture to sigh over – like those cheeks, those curls, the daddy cuddles… But seriously?

How adorable are those stripes? I couldn’t stand it. So I got up to get the camera and take a picture. The second she noticed what I was doing she got up and went to another room. Spoil sport.

One of her new favorite games is to run away from me, giggling maniacally whenever I pull out the camera. Unfortunately for her, I find this adorable and call it a challenge. (PS: Look, it’s Dolly!)

You might be wondering what that yellow string she’s holding is…

Isn’t that little froggy adorable? We actually got this when MM was her age and I love seeing it become one of those toys that passed down to the next kid and loved and cherished all over again. Also – full view of the tights which was my goal after all. Please ignore the cluttered, messy pantry behind the adorable girl. Focus on the adorable – not the clutter.
