February!

Bean is saying goodbye to January this weekend as he begins work on some valentines for you. Count on a Bean Valentine every day leading up to the 14th!

not so good

Leftover snow is definitely not as good as fresh snow, which leads to the conclusion that snow is unlike Mexican food, in that Mexican food is somehow always better as leftovers on the second day.

winter wonderment

Snow never ceases to amaze Bean!

hideout

Bean, don't think I can't see you there in my bed, under my covers.
I know it's cozy in there but why don't you come out and practice your harmonica today?

you serious!?

Is it really Monday already? But it's the last Monday of the month!

winter weekends

Cold winter weekends equal staying inside which means board games!

Like my favorite...
or Bean's favorite...

i'm late!

Oh no, Bean! I'm late! I'm sorry I don't have any time to draw you doing something cute! We'll think up a good one tomorrow.

he's packing

Bean packed my lunch this morning.
He's been known to pack items such as this and that.
He's very heath conscious.

cozy spot

Bean has staked out a cozy spot on the reflecting pool to watch the inauguration. But he just happened to forget his high powered telescope at home.

sticking to it

I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.
-Martin Luther King, Jr.

super things

Bean just loves Fridays!
But not as much as he loves miracles!

snow day

It's a snow boot day today and you know what that means!

going underground

Poor Bean. He's got a whole list of things to do today but it's too cold to go outside. If only there was an underground tunnel system that could take you places with minimal outside air contact. Oh wait! There is!

snack time

Turns out Bean can be coaxed out of his hole with some mint hot chocolate.

nice long nap

It's around this time of year that Bean likes to experiment with hibernating.

movie night

Bean, I'm sure the Blockbuster guy knows his stuff, but that just doesn't seem like your genre. I think you'll like this one much better.

silver mining

Some days just have too many clouds and not enough sunshine. Bean wants his silver lining!

it's magnificant!

Bean thinks magnifying glasses are way underrated.





















*the photo in the link was taken by a friend of mine. She is amazing! See more of her stuff here if you'd like.

sweater shopping

Bean is realizing he needs more sweaters that are not holiday themed, so that he can stay warm during the four months of winter post holiday season and not look like a crazy loon.

vay-cay

Bean and I are still on vacation this week, but I would hardly call it a vacation when the whole neighborhood has learned how to password protect their wireless internet so I get stuck with mom's AOL dial up.
