All in White for Halloween

 

Canadian holiday traditions are pretty great. I must say that I wouldn't mind if Australia cultivated a bit more of a celebratory spirit. Until such a time, I'm learning all I can from the pro's and plan to do my utmost to get into the spirit of the holidays that come along. I haven't always been a Halloween fan, but in Canada it really does make a lot of sense. The last leaves of fall cling to the tree's and there's a crisp nip in the air, it starts to get dark early which all adds to the ambiance of the holiday.

Baby Mine

Seven weeks today, I love getting to know you, holding you close and singing you off to sleep. You are such a beautiful boy. We are seeing little smiles now and you love being cuddled in close and sung to. Your hair is starting to look very strawberry blonde and you love sucking everything insight especially your hands. Know little baby that you are surrounded by love. 

A Perfect Fall Day

 

When your time in a place is quickly drawing to a close, those would have's, could have's, should have's start to rear up. Nova Scotia really is so packed with beautiful things to see that I would have needed a good few more years to get through all I would have liked to see, but with just over a month to go until we would be leaving her shores a few old favourites and a few must do's became the focus. One of which was Victoria Park in Truro, best admired in fall when the leaves are just so and the air calls for rugging up in your finest.

Knit in Love

You are growing so fast little Quill. Just one month old and only just fitting into the knits I made you. I worked on the little hat and bloomers for you in the last few months of my pregnancy and thought of you and and holding you in my arms all the while. I love seeing them on you. You are such a sweet and gentle baby. You feed and sleep and come along on all the adventures with your aunties, uncle and cousins. They are all here in Canada at just the right time to see you as a newborn babe, fresh from heaven and sent to us. Oh how we love you.
