Friday's Loves

Right now I am loving

The Hallmark channel! Yes, it is that time of year for 24/7 Holiday Movies!!!! I love this time of year because no matter what you are guaranteed a happy ending movie. Even Jeff gets sucked into them, which I love. I know he has a soft spot for that kind of stuff, even if he doesn't admit to it. Corny, sappy, on repeat? Thank You More Please!

Brody! Duh I always love him, but lately he is showing true love for his blankies and I LOVE this. Every time he wakes up, be it from nap time or bed time, he 1) is always smiley and 2) will grab his blankie and snuggle it before he reaches for me. He can not leave his crib without it! It seriously warms my heart! He always has to have it in the living room with him, in sight at least. If I am sitting on it he will tug it out from under me. If he decides he's tired of mommy snuggles he'll grab his blankie, straggle over to daddy and snuggle with him! The cutest thing. This is the first time he's really shown an affinity for anything in particular. I have to tell you, I think he gets that from me. Embarrassing admission, but I kept my "blankie" way longer than I probably should have! My mom pretty much had to pry it away from me. Ohhh pinky…I do miss you!

Christmas Music! I know you might be thinking it's too soon, but here's the thing, in years past I was working and forced to listen to Christmas music non-stop. To make matters worse, it was like jazz Christmas on repeat. Now it's all up to me! I get to pick how often, and I get to pick the style. And it seriously just makes my heart so cheery and bright!

Yoga and dance.  Just because I don't do it doesn't mean I can't love it. I'm kind of obsessing over it. Just ask Jeff. I saw a picture of a girl doing a headstand and thought it looked so cool and easy so I decided I would do one too. It took multiple tries and sweat and Jeff helping me with my balance but dammit I held it! AND I made him take a picture so I could see if I had ab muscles. OK maybe that sounds a little vain, but ya know what, once Jeff saw me do one, he had to do one and then it just turned into silly fun. The reason I love it so much is because I love the idea of being focused mentally and physically and seeing just what my body is capable of. I know it can do so much more than I give it credit for. Now I just have to get out of my own way and try come classes!
