Roses...

My friend T is moving into an apartment and doesn't have time for the plants I've been holding onto for her, so she gave them to me and is also going to be giving me her roses. I never thought I would want roses, but I'm looking forward to having some pretty flowers in the yard. Manperson is going to build me a raised bed for them.

Pictures of my updated Mei Tai...

Here is a picture of my Mei Tai modeled by a friend and her daughter. I made the straps a bit longer so they could be tied under baby's bottom and back for extra support and adjustability.
