In just six weeks I will to meet my sweet lil nephew, who has already lived 3 whole months on this earth. Until our vacation across the country, where I will play with, photograph, and smother the kiddos with all my pent up auntie fervor–sending some love with hand-knitted snuggles will have to do.
