please excuse the lack of posts over the last couple of weeks. early october is typically a crazy time of year around these parts, and this year is no exception. there are some fun posts waiting in the wings so don’t go far ๐Ÿ™‚

(and despite not picking up my camera a whole lot, i still usually have my phone with me so i’m posting quite regularly over on instagram. i’d love to see you there too!)


it’s a little book by lane smith
sparky by jenny offill
i like you by sandol stoddard warburg
miss lina’s ballerinas by grace maccarone
the miraculous journey of edward tulane by kate dicamillo
touch & feel farm by dwell studio

a few things of note about this weeks’ selections:

i had forgotten about i like you until i heard it read as part of a wedding ceremony i photographed earlier this month. we pulled it out again this week ๐Ÿ™‚

i cried multiple times while reading edward tulane with lila. it is far and above my favourite novel we’ve read together. i can’t recommend it enough.

and oscar cannot get enough of grabbing at the touch & feel series right now.

have a great weekend ๐Ÿ™‚

when oscar was about a month old, we had a little bbq to celebrate his arrival.

this is what it looked like.

it should be noted that it is never a bad idea to add crushed up oreos to your favourite white cake and/or buttercream recipe.
