hello march.

breakfast. my grammy's banana bread via my mama.



what i woke up to...



my little walker holding a picture of her daddy as a baby



baby sam

as you may be able to tell...it is snowing. again. it is really beautiful, but i have MAJOR cabin fever. toddlers indoors all day is not ideal. when we went outside to look at the snow this morning, matilda did not want to come back in. there is something magical about snow, but i'm looking forward to some (hopefully) warm savannah weather.

what should we do in savannah? where should we eat?

i've really enjoyed checking out some new blogs here lately. here are some blogs of recent followers:

two downings a day

tales of me and the husband

olive my life!

thanks so much for reading. i'm always so flattered to see a new face and to get a peek in to all of your beautiful lives. i'm going to be linking to new blogs once a week. stay tuned!

**thanks for all the shoe advice! i wore them. they're lovely, even if it was 15 degrees too cold to have them on!

making me happy this morning...

from the wonderful rachel

signs of spring in my house, even though the forcast for the week contains all lows in the 20's. pssshhhhhh. i am so ready for tank tops and dirty knees from being outside all day. i want dresses and sandals. speaking of sandals. i need y'alls help. here are the gorgeous swedish hasbeens that sam surprised me with (pair 2, the first pair were mustard and too small) in cognac. the problem is that i loved the mustard and these are a touch big. i really need the 9.5, which doesn't exist. i love them, though! should i keep them?



ps just painted toes are always a tad messy. what can i say?

and how great are these?

but what's really, really making me happy this morning? our little matilda walked all the way across the living room today. that's right! of course we didn't catch it on video. we're not that smooth. while she was walking she said "yay!". i mean, come on. she is the cutest!

hope you all have a restful, reflective sunday.
