There isn't much of a difference between these two phrases. The only difference between them is "I'm loving having" is more specific to the current situation. Whereas, "I love having" is more generalized and is more commonly used. Regardless of the minor difference, they both can be used fairly interchangeable. Ex: I love having a cat. Cats are great companions. Ex: I'm loving having a new computer. So much better than my old one! Ex: She loves having sisters. Ex: I'm loving having my own bathroom instead of sharing one with my family.
