Oh my, how we love handmade in our little home!
A few weeks ago, we went to a Homegrown Festival down our street. At one of the booths, a mother and daughter were selling onesies and knit hats for little ones. We really wanted to buy one for Forest that had Washington state on it, but they were all sold out of bigger sizes for the Winter and since our wee one is quite healthy and plump, they told us they could make one for us and we could pick it up in the next town over at a shop. We also checked out their Etsy shop and decided on a little bear knit hat. (We had grand plans to be Goldilocks and the three bears for Halloween, but Sienna has since changed her mind...)

I also wanted to share a very sweet, little pair of booties that our neighbor made for Forest. We hadn't even spoken to her before, but she is often sitting in a chair on her porch. She told us that she had watched me grow and toward the end of the pregnancy she was waiting for the baby to come, since we were out walking every night the last few weeks before his birth day.
Sweet, little booties for Winter.
They should keep Forest's toes nice and toasty.
And this evening, friends, we are going to see a few rental houses at the beach! Hopefully, one of these may work for us. One of them even has a wood stove, which we do miss dearly from the little house. Fingers crossed.
