Every parent just thinks their kids are the cutest thing ever, don’t they? I’ve seen, heard, and read a lot lately that posting too many pictures of your kids on your blog can turn readers away, or if you post too many pictures of your kids on Instagram you’ll lose followers as a result. Everyone has their own opinion on this topic, I’m sure, but in my opinion, it’s my space and I’ll do what I want with it. I use my blog and Instagram to help keep track and document my sweet little Alea Lou and it also helps me share photos of her with family who doesn’t get to see her too often. If you don’t like it, then move on.
Still here? Then I figured you might need a little hump day giggle to lift your spirits so you can make it through the second half of your week. These are just a couple videos I had been hoarding on my phone and finally uploaded to Photobucket after iOS7 came out. Mama had to make room for that update, ya know.
Anyways, enjoy!
Little miss thang has started using her hands when she talks. Her gestures become exponentially pronounced with the seriousness of the topic or the information that she’s trying to get across to you. In the video above she’s trying to convince me that she needs a play house. A playhouse for “humans” I must add. And trust me, a play house is a very serious matter to a three-year-old.
Those bedtime kiss attacks and the giggles that result are just about my favorite thing about bedtime. It totally makes up for the tantrums that come before when I’m begging her to let me finish brushing her teeth so I can get rid of the rest of the “cavity germs.” And god forbid I make her go potty before bedtime. What was I saying? Oh yes, these giggles make it all worth it!
Sometimes it takes a lot to get daddy’s attention, apparently. Now I know where Alea gets her selective hearing from 😉
Seriously, who doesn’t like cute little kid videos and pictures? I know my day wouldn’t be complete without them!

aww, these are precious!! i love her hand motions in the first video- she means business!
I love love love this! And, I love seeing pics and videos of peoples kids. It shows their life and their love for their family. It’s so silly of people to complain about something like that.
And, these videos.. so, so sweet! I just love her little voice.
What a sweet girl! My son (3 years) loved these! Thanks for sharing the sweet moments of your day with us!
She’s so adorable! And I LOVE it when bloggers post pictures and videos of their kids and when they write about them. My little family of three is the most important thing in my life, so I really enjoy reading about other people’s family lives and experiences with their kiddos. Don’t ever stop posting pictures of Alea. She is a doll. 🙂
Cute! It drives me crazy when people say stuff like that. And it’s usually people who post five times more pictures of their dog and their Starbucks drink than I do of my kids.
Ha!! You are probably right about the dog and Starbucks pics!!
I teach 3 years and I LOVE when they tell me something really important like that first video! So precious and funny! Post as many pics of her as you want, I know I do of my little man!
So adorable!! Thanks for sharing 🙂
Adorbs, and thanks for sharing! Personally, I love the shares. They help when I’m missing my little boo-bear at work… My baby is kinda my world. I’m thinking the naysayers don’t have kids, ’cause come on! They’re such little rays of sunshine! 🙂
AH I love these. Thank you SO MUCH for sharing! The one where she’s telling you how she needs a house for humans, I LOVE how she says “Come on, Mom!” Hahaha. So precious.
i am of the mindset that if you have something to brag about regarding your kids, then brag about it. if you have cute pictures and videos to share, share them!!
She’s so cute and reminds me so much of my Aubrey.
The first video is so funny! Serious business, clearly.
Aw how cute! She’s so precious! 🙂
can she get any cuter!!!!??
I’m with you…if people unfollow, oh well…moving on! People should follow because they actually like you and what you are about. Some people might unfollow because they aren’t in that season of life and can’t relate, but that might not mean they won’t come back when they can relate…and if not, that’s okay too!! I personally love videos and pics of lil cutie pies like Aleah Lou….accept my iPhone is not even showing me there are any pics or videos in this post so I will definitely come back when I’m on my computer!!
Super cute videos and I love what you said about this being your space. I feel the same.
