Going up north to Sudbury for Thanksgiving was a chilly wake up call- it was way colder there than in Toronto! There has been a few bouts of early frost, so sadly a lot of leaves were already off the trees, which is completely the opposite of Thanksgiving last year, when it was a riot of stunning colour and so warm you could hike in a t shirt. Here is Lila all bundled up for the drive out:
She is wearing: A bonnet and mitts I made for her, a baby sophisticate made by Erica, and tucked under a rainbow blanket made by me. She is also wearing a Ghostbusters onesie. Because she ain't afraid of no ghosts.
Every year when we do the hike, Guy and I have had our photo taken in the same place. This year, we had a family photo:
And of course, got some photos of Lila's new bonnet, which I absolutely adore. It was a very quick knit (I knit it in an evening), and I made some matching mitts as well. I absolutely love this on her- the colour, the style, it's perfection.
The baby carrier is this one if you are curious.
We did gritty, obvious cell phone snaps in the weeks before the hike. If I leave it untied, she has a tendency to pull it so the whole thing covers her face, and then she flails her arms about. It's hilarious.

Lila looks so adorable in all her knitted attire. Love her hat! What a great family memory. Looks like you had a great time on your hike. Thanks for all the links.
so much cute! love all Lila's knitwear :)
Love the knitwear and thank you for the links. Lila continues to grow into her beauty and the look she is giving her father is priceless. You are truly blessed.
Really nice pictures of the adorable Lila and her family!:)
She looks super adorable covered in all those hand-knits!
haha! The arm flailing is hilarious! I laughed out loud at that shot. I love that Lila has so many awesome knits and she's not afraid to wear them all at the same time. You go girl!
The bonnet and mitt combo are super cute :-) I got a good laugh after seeing the last photo where her bonnet fell over. I'm expecting in March so I'm looking forward to these moments :-)
Also: Thanks for the link for the Beco Gemini Baby carrier. I've been on the look out for a comfortable, ergonomic and somewhat stylish baby carrier. I just purchased one. Thanks :-)
Oh my goodness, cuteness overload! :)
She is so cute =) Love all knitwear.
She is such a cutie! I love seeing all of the amazingly cute things you've knit for her.
I'm with Tanis - love that shot of her little flailing arms! And the fact that she's a handknit maven with all those handmade goodies worn at once.
I also love the hiking tradition on Thanksgiving and the fact that you're getting her out there on the trail at a nice, early age.
I can't resist commenting on every post with pictures of Lila, she's so cute! And you're right, that bonnet is the perfect color on her. I love bright, bold colors on babies!
Your whole family looks beautiful, Julie! Lila is a delight and those handknits made me smile. She'll never be able to wear store-bought knits ... ever!
OMG! She's so cute! I love the bonnet, it looks great on her. :-)
I love the entire baby ensemble! She's adorable and looks quite cozy.
Lila is a lucky girl, with a Mom who can make such incredible knits. Thanks for sharing the pictures, and the pattern.
That bonnet is adorable! I absolutely love the yarn choice. So vibrant and colorful!
What a beautiful little family you are! I love all of Lila's wonderful handknits :)
Gorgeous knitwear all around! What a fun way to spend Thanksgiving :)
Thanks for the smile.
You , Guy and Miss L! :)
I don't miss the cold weather, at all! But I do miss the lovely woods.
Lila is so photogenic! Love the bonnet (especially in that color!), and the baby sophisticate is extra cute!
Just when I think she can't get any cuter, she flails her arms. Priceless!
so so cute!
Lila looks so cosy in all those woolens! To paraphrase Elizabeth Zimmerman, there's nothing more heart warming than seeing a sweet baby covered in hand knits!!!
Love all the glamour shots, but my favorite photo is the bottom left, where she's sharing the love. So cute!!
Olá, que belas fotos, que bela família, é tudo tão lindo, e a Lila está mesmo bonita, uma amor, adorei o gorro e as luvas a combinar, tudo lhe fica bem. Parabéns por tudo, bjos doces
