A quick shot of Friday's afternoon pick up at the store. High Street Market is crazy busy, fulfilling holiday orders (and will continue to do so until 12/23-- our LAST OFFICIAL SHIPPING DAY of the season).
Winter Wonderland. We received a bunch of new snow here in Philadelphia. It's been pretty magical. This picture was taken from the car, on a road near our home (I wasn't driving). Nothing like fresh snow to get you in the Christmas spirit. :)
I decorated the new carriage house with simple (cheap) green wreaths and huge red bows. It took me about 5 minutes to hang these and they make me SO HAPPY every single time I pull my car up.

The cozy living room sofa -- my favorite spot in the house.
(cable knit pillows are from our store, and available here)

Also, last week, William experienced his first snow! We only had him out there for about two minutes, but obviously he was not impressed. :)
William is about three months old now. And, life as a new mom is really good. Very different, but wonderful all the same. Besides the NO SLEEP (and I like writing it in all capitals, because it's THAT MAJOR)... besides the NO SLEEP, the biggest change in my life is the amount of smiling I do every day. Seriously. I don't think I've ever smiled so much. So much smiling that my cheeks hurt, that's how much smiling. :) :) :) William makes me really happy. When your child smiles at you, your heart literally melts into a gob of warm mushiness. And, you will do anything to get him to do it again. Sing silly songs, make funny faces, and give that wet mouth a million kisses. I will do anything for a good, gummy, toothless smile. It's the best thing in the world. :)
Oh. And, the other biggest change in my life-- I'm constantly dealing with pee, poop, puke, and the smell of spoiled milk. Also, LAUNDRY. Lots of laundry.
Here are some recent pictures of my loveable, smiley, precious little poop machine. :)
Love this tiny bear
