Just a few of my favorite things...

When Reese was about one, I bought this outfit for her at the gymboree outlet store. I loved the whole flip-flop line. Needless to say, this was one of my favorite outfits. I was so excited to use it again on Brooke.







I just love her cute smile and the way she poses when it's time to take her picture.






We went to the store after I picked up Garrett from school yesterday. While going by the seafood section, the man working in the meat and seafood department asked Garrett and Reese if they wanted to see an octopus. Of course they said "yes". He came back with this frozen baby octopus. He let them touch it and feel the tentacles (with gloves on). They thought that was just the coolest thing.



One of mine and the kids' favorite dinner is Linguine with shrimp and lemon oil. I saw it on Everyday Italian. Garrett asks me to make it every chance I get and I don't mind because it is so simple, easy and flavorful.
