Clothing Treasure Basket


Dressing a baby in the winter is quite a ritual, so I put together a clothing treasure basket for Téa to introduce her to her winter clothes.  We bundle her up in quite a lot of items of clothing, so I thought it would be nice for her to explore what they are herself!

Here we have her knitted pants, a onesie, a homemade winter baby bonnet and her socks.  I also keep a diaper cover in this basket sometimes.  How are you bundling up your babies for the cold this winter?

The Outdoors

We are on holiday in Arizona and we've been spending our entire afternoons outdoors, in Téa's grandmother's beautiful oasis garden in the desert.  We lie back and observe the racing clouds, the many birds twittering in the treetops, the delicate lacey pine needles framing the sky.  When she gets restless, we walk around and feel the flowers, the ferns, the large dangling fruits, and smell the leaves on the lemon tree.  We rattle the windchimes.  And I tell her incessantly about it all.
