  1. the color palette is so beautiful in these photos. it almost looks as if your friend coordinated her outfit to match the park and the trees.

  2. this is unrelated to this post, but i was wondering if you, lena, or any other readers could share what some of your favorite mom or baby gifts have been. I have so many pregnant or new mom friends on my holiday list, but i want to give something useful and special. thanks!

  3. hi amanda
    hmmm… good question!
    i received some really amazing gifts… many were handmade: two knitted blankets, a knitted baby sweater, a crocheted baby hat, a tie dyed onesie and receiving blanket… those things are really special. i also received the cutest pair of keep sneakers for eli, and that was fun because it was something to look forward to using since he couldn’t fit into them for a while. another friend gave me vintage books and children’s records. and several friends brought food over and i appreciated that SO much.

    • lena – thank you! who doesn’t love hand-knitted gifts? great ideas, i like the sneaker thing too, so sweet. thanks again šŸ˜‰
