Many small wonders..



Over the past week many small and beautiful wonders have filled my life! To start, I gave birth to a gorgeous 7 lb 8 oz baby girl on the 13th. (Hence my previous post) I never thought I was carrying a girl. My 'older' little girl just turned 2 years old yesterday. Sisters. I never had a sister, although I desperately wanted one. 2 years apart with their birth dates only 4 days apart. I am hoping for them to be best of friends.

I also received some most delightful treasures from Melissa at The Garden of Pink Shadows. I had ordered some sheets of birds and butterflies and entered into a contest on her blog. Well, to my most pleasant surprise, I won a fabulous little bag of goodies! (shown in the pics) Her shop at Etsy is most delightful place to stop and smell the flowers.


I am typically not so florally. But I guess I should have noticed that my new love of vintage birds, florals and fabrics most likely sprung from the fact that I was secretly carrying a girl!
