  2. I love it, too! The times when they're sleeping seem to be one of our opportunities to fall in love with them, all over again!! I mean, in spite of the HUGE mess they leave behind. ;)

    PS That necklace on the left is gorgeous. I love this linkup, just because I get to read so many new, awesome blogs!!
