saturday: lazy

single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, heart warming moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. If you're inspired to do the same, leave a link to your 'moment' in the comments for all to find and see.

jolly holiday

I am not afraid to admit that I downloaded the Mary Poppins soundtrack to my iPod the other day to make me feel happy. We are all dorks in our own special way.

If someone's trying to ruin your good time, barf on them and move on. Practice positivity.

Three things that I love, today:

1. Winter trees

2. Mailing a parcel wrapped in brown paper

3. Using the word "barf" in a blog post

boys

Just so you know, there isn't a single thing I love more than receiving pictures of where my toys end up. Even if it's in a mouth, it gives me a great sense of purpose in my work which I can't quite describe. And the cuteness involved? Don't get me started. This is why I love making toys!

Connor is our current top model -showing off his editorial skills- with one of our (NEW!) monsters. Thanks to Connor, and many other baby boys born recently, I have become inspired to explore a slightly different demographic. Bring on the toys for boys!

Thank you Colette for these beautiful shots of Mr.February.

inner narwhal

I found this old piece -which I made in college- and felt the sudden urge to start writing again. I don't know why I've had such a difficult time focusing on it lately, but I am taking the time to dig up pieces for inspiration to get the wheels in motion. I need to write!

I'm not sure what it means to dream of narwhals, but it has happened more than once this week. There's something mystical and fairytale like about them that makes me want to sit down and pull out some loose leaf and get writing. I'm paying attention to my inner narwhal.

I need to write!
