wild roses, swamp lilies, scissors and things

Have been getting out more, finally! Before all the rain came we took Little O to the lake and sat down a bit for a short picnic. Now the skies are rainy and gray and it is quite depressing. I usually like rainy days but I have spent so much time inside I am itching to go exploring with my little one! Indoors, I have been playing with all my new collections and things.
I have been collecting ship plaques and tiny antique scissors.
The wild roses are still blooming here.
Tomorrow is the start of my most favorite month!

welcome!

A few days ago our little one was already a month old! (Hence the lack of postings here.)
Little Owen was welcomed into our world on August 26th 2010, weighing 7 lbs 13 oz.
It has been incredible. Also very tiring! I am still recovering and will be for a few more weeks, but slowly getting into the grove of things as I adjust and balance my new role as mama.
For now, our cat Max has taken permanent residence in my little nook of an art studio.

I am so excited about the fall! Yesterday I finally felt ready to venture out, Owen and I went for out first walk together. It was nice to take a breather away from home, have him sleep in his stroller while I daydream a bit.
And I am finally catching up on all my blog-readings and emails, so please bear with me. Have a great weekend and a very happy autumn to all!
