hammock required

Isn't there something just so wonderful about a hammock?
Here at the resort in Mexico we have a hammock right on our patio...everyone does.
Actually, a hammock is a vacation requirement here.

I love everything a hammock represents.  It feels like a hug when you get in one.  You immediately feel snuggled, held...supported.  And then when you have little people it only adds to the sweetness and snuggly feeling.  Here half of our family is in our own little snuggle fest cocoon.



Tessa is often so busy being a toddler that snuggling isn't on the top of her list of things to do.  But the hammock brought it out in her.  This position was her favorite, I think because we are together, but she is also independent of me while being snuggled in.  I love how relaxed we are here.  I love the way our skin is contrasting.  I love how her little body just fits right into mine. I just love it

Can you just feel Tessa's inner sweetness below?....Here her sweetness is coming right through.  
She is totally relaxed, at ease and being oh so sweet.

A hammock might be required right now for me to see this sort of sweetness....
that is fine with me.  I can swing in a hammock all summer if that is what it takes!

    Adorable photos. I love love love hammocks. Unfortunately, whenever I get in mine, so do my dogs. Tessa really does look like a sweet soul. I've been researching adoption lately but I'm not sure my husband and I would qualify.

    So sweet - reminds me of my grandfather's hammock as a child. It was so comforting and relaxing.

    The picture of Tessa with the blue hammock behind her is adorable. Nice analogy of what a hammock represents. I completely agree.
