Watching the Department of Children and Families go after her parents isn't something that would make me say "aww" but is something I would thoroughly enjoy. Watching the story line of her and Angela being adopted materialize in the game on the other hand was cute. Seeing Dirk hold his Blue Crew cheerleader (Lily) in his arms after he proposed at the same campanile Cody proposed to Angela at was adorable; it's like a whole different side of Lily was brought out when she was no longer being treated like garbage. The Pleasant twins are just awesome in general.
When I made Roxy, a Mad Gear member from Final Fight, it was kind of a joke turning her into a goodie-two-shoes, but seeing the end result materialized was actually kind of cute/awesome. She ended up becoming one of my favorites, something I wasn't expecting at first.

My favourite is the toddler/pet animations. I will never get tired of that. Adults snuggling a toddler is SO cute too. And I agree the animations on the two Store baby items are perfect. I couldn't believe it when sims 3 babies turned out to be permanently swaddled making them look so maggoty! Especially since, it turns out, they actually have bodies under all of that!
A funny/cute one - have you ever had a sim teach their pet to "play dead"? This is absolutely hilarious because the sim will pretend to die (very realistically!) and the first time around, the pet actually looks worried and goes to sniff them to check they are OK. Then the sim gets up and the pet is so relieved.
On the devastatingly heartbreaking side - the way that a bonded pet reacts when their owner actually dies. It's too much

The store baby items saved babies. I use the danglemonster so much just to get them out of their cribs and in the same room as the rest of the family.

The Welcome Wagon is one of my favorite things, and I have had many good friendships and relationships grew from that.
It is especially nice when you move in a single sim as an intended partner for one of your hood's single sims - and he knocks on the door, leading the welcome wagon Love at first sight, awwww....

Yet another Pets related cute feature: Clicking on the Pets EP icon while on the neighbourhood screen plays a woof sound from a puppy besides from displaying the usual EP description!

I've had previous issues with CC included in lots, so I tend to avoid them these days.

Unless it's a stylized lot concept, I rarely see Maxis match lots where the CC items make or break the overall vision of the lot for me. I'd rather have the CC free version and use CC I already have to tweak the lot versus adding a random assortment of CC recolors or items that just happen to be that builder's fav.
FWIW, I upload a shell of my houses that are unfurnished and undecorated and still get about 50% of the downloads of the fully furnished version. Sometimes people hate your vision and just want the shell

I'm far too lazy and untalented to furnish stuff myself. XD

I just started a new hood, and the Ferndale family has been growing at an alarming rate.
As dad comes home from work, the first kid runs out to hug him but
the youngest toddler is a very active litte sim and he crawls out at Olympic record speed to Dad at the mailbox too (Awwwww).

The unintentional hilarity of the social debug dialogs.

The most bizarre part there is that the options are "Accept" and "Decline". It's either "Yeah, okay, you're right, bad timing, maybe we can talk about this again in a few weeks" or "No, I don't care how you feel, we are getting married NOW."

-Other sims' silly reactions to PDA depending on their personality/relationship. Recently I had a teen reacted with "You're crazy!" and rolled her eyes at her parents slow-dancing in the living room. Then I had a shy sim shake her head in disapproval at her cousin making out with her boyfriend
-The moment when a sim's last name changes on their cursor after marriage. For some reason, that makes the marriage feel more official than just fulfilling the wants.
