I have things to show you, I do! The past three days have been days of snow, clouds, and more snow: not particularly ideal photo-taking conditions, sadly. Peanut and I have enjoyed some lovely, snowy walks outside in our fuzzy baby-wearing fleece coat. I'm not sure she has entirely noticed the snow, even when it falls on her face - there may not be anything prettier than snow flakes caught in your baby's eyelashes - but I've enjoyed showing her her first winter.
So, since I don't have any pictures to show you of anything interesting I've finished lately, here's a meme currently circulating.
