around here . . .

it feels like we missed summer. we haven't had nearly enough beach days.
the baby sprouted three new teeth this week. our nights went from bad to worse.

i've just finished reading the riders. now i'm dreaming of the greek islands. 

the early mornings are breathtaking. i drag myself from bed to witness it once in a while.

i was given a slackline for christmas. i'm loving mastering a new skill.
oscar is now nine months old. he's as cute as can be and pretty hilarious too.
the fig tree is loaded with fruit. i'm waiting patiently for it to ripen.
i finally taught myself how to braid. thank you, you tube.
sam and i enjoyed a lovely long lunch on the weekend. thank you, mum.
the veggie patch is getting some attention at long last. tomatoes are go.
we robbed our bee hives. the honey tasted like medicine.
i'm buying mavi jeans on ebay. a little bit obsessively.
we're picking berries every day. the silvans are delicious right now.
i'm making an effort to drink lots of water. shooting for 3L a day.
i'm noticing that life feels better when i blog. or maybe that i blog when life feels better?
