oh the holidays

'found art' between s.p.i and mansfield day after thanksgiving.


paul and i kinda freak out around holiday time. we have much to celebrate within november and december + it all gets to be too much at some point. we managed to secure christmas at our house this year, something i rallied for last year while pregnant with you-know-who. this has become a blessing and a curse. i'm in another nesting mode where i want the house to be nice, inviting and christmas-y for our family. luckily i've got a break from work to make this happen. somehow my months off from work have actually become way more work than they should. somehow i don't let myself sit still for any period of time. i'm starting to look forward to january - this being the first day of december.

here are some photos taken in the last month or so - of course most feature the aforementioned you-know-who. we seriously can't get enough of her (most of the time). she's pretty awesome and we feel oh, so very lucky.

june's grammy likes to get her nekid. does this kid favor paul or what? after i saw these photos i started to call june "paulina".


june's nana likes to dress her up in all sorts of clothes. i actually never thought i'd subject my daughter to stockings (especially as an infant), however now i am quite enamored with junie's encased sausage legs.


june accompanied gammy on the piano at thanksgiving. haunting. they'll be taking it on the road once junie can wipe herself.


on the beach after thanksgiving. cold, rainy and windy. june was mucho bundled and fell asleep like this on our beach walk. little kolache that she is.


junie's first santy photo - taken at local shop with local celebrity as santa. she didn't cry, but she did try to snag the beard for our costume box.
