Deck

So one of my favorite parts of our new home is the big, beautiful deck we have!  I love it!  My husband and I actually spend time outside now!  We bought lights and strung them along the railing so we have some light in the evenings when it gets dark.  We really like it!  Tarcil got a chance to explore it some, and I think he likes it too!  :)

Chalkboard and Chalk

My sister gave me this cute chalkboard and some fun chalk for my birthday!  I can't wait to get it hung up and start using it!  :)

Yummy Banana

I love spoiling Tarcil with his favorite treat: Bananas!  He takes his time to eat them instead of immediately stuffing it into his cheek.  And I love seeing his furry paws gently hold the banana!  Seriously, I could watch Tarcil do almost anything and think it is automatically adorable!  He makes every little menial task sooooo cute!!

Plants

Today has been a lazy day in our house.  I unintentionally slept in, which wasn't that big of a deal.  I was pretty surprised that I was actually able to sleep that long!  I guess I needed the extra sleep!  Tarcil loves having lazy Mondays!  He liked looking at this flower pot of plants that I have had for a while now.  The plants no longer are contained within the pot; they are hanging over the edge onto the table.  :)

Penny and Tarcil

These two make me SO happy!  I have noticed that Tarcil's hair got a lot lighter when it got long, so they don't look like they match in color as well as they used to.  But they are still adorable buddies!  :)

Roses

My sister is the best and last week she gave me these BEAUTIFUL roses as part of a housewarming gift!!  She is so sweet!  She also gave us chocolate and a gift card.  The flowers are actually dead now, the chocolate eaten, and the gift card spent.  But the thoughtfulness will never be forgotten!  I love her so much!  :)

Cuddles

So....  Today is my birthday.  :)  And Tarcil is just unbelievably cute!!!  I really appreciate the fact that he likes cuddles!!  I seriously love this little guy so much!!  He makes every day so much better!  :)  Also, I would be a jerk if I didn't say Happy Birthday to my twin!  She is wonderful, amazing, and awesome!!  She is a huge part of my life and one of my best friends (my husband being the other)!  She is such a blessing to me, and I love living so close to her!  :)
