It is so cold outside. It is 32, but the wind is quite a bit colder. Yesterday the cold front blew through. It was beautiful. There was just a little rain around five thirty. The sun was low in the sky and there was a double rainbow, (just a reminder that the earth is truly lovely.)
My daughter is prepared for the front. She is wishing for snow. I'm afraid it will not happen this front. In the spirit of the cold, however, she decorated her door. It is so neat. She did it all by hand, without scissors or any tool. She is so creative!
The baby is not fond of the cold. He is always fighting being covered, trying with all his might to get out of the blankets. This was not the case today. He stuck his hand out of the blankets I had covering him when I carried him to the car this afternoon. He whimpered and pulled his hand back in. That wind was like nothing he has ever experienced. I'm glad we bought him a heavy winter coat last week. Its a bit too big for him but he will be warm. I have to admit, though, he looks a little like the kid from A Christmas Story!

Ilana is so creative. I need to be more creative right now (my portfolio is due in a couple hours and I need to finish some sketchbook stuff) but I am completely dainbramaged from finals.
But at least I'm done with finals. I really only had.... well, two, but that's because I worked hard early in the semester to be exempt in Astronomy, and had a big-ass project to turn in for Figure Drawing last week. I am soooo happy this semester has drawn to a close, but I fear the semester to come.
Baby is sooo cyuuute (cute) in his large coat! Experiencing winter for the first time must be tough. It has been very cold and very windy here too, except we dont get any rainbows that we can see. But there was some pretty freaky lightning when I was walking to the library the other day. Intense. :)
It is very cool that you have this website, btw. It is interesting that you have all these stories to tell, and photos to go with them. That'll be something nice to look back on years from now.
Love the terrific door decorations - very appropriate for the season. Great to see her big smile, too!
The baby/coat pic is great, and I guess the colors being "Cowboys"-like are just a coincidence?? ;^)
