This is better


This looks so much better after my friend Tracy has tweaked it - looks completely different and I can actually do something with it now - thanks so much - not only for that because you are the only one that ever reads my blog.
We had some family photos taken in Christchurch by Amanda Haynes at Hagley Park - I could have stayed there all day - it was so beautiful with the autumn leaves on the ground. She had a ball and he fell asleep just near the end. The lighting was fantastic.

More of the same?


I like this one of you as it's a bit different - some days I take heaps of photos and then go for a while of not - just wish my camera would fit into my handbag.

More of you both





I love to see sleeping babies. There is something so totally angelic and vulnerable about them. I am loving the age you are now(almost 6 months)- although you are so wriggly you aren't as cuddly as you could be.

You're pretty cute

I had forgotten you started so small


Was just looking through older photos and found this - you look so cute - you still are adorable but you have changed so much - I know newborns and babies are heaps of work but there are some adorable things that I wouldn't want to change about a baby starting so fresh and new. I loved how at 4am this morning after a feed you snuggled your head into my chest and fell back asleep. There is such a cute baby smell and I love how warm and snuggly your head always is

Constantly on the move

At tahuna playground and him working out at home - crawling and sitting. First stood 16 March just 5 days over 5 months old. A bit wobbly on it but very determined. Little madam has dropped her afternoon sleeps almost altogether which quickly catches up with her later in the day (and us). I am loving being a mother but there are challenges but I just need to look at them and thank Heavenly Father for such beautiful and precious gifts. He is a whopper weighs 8.5 kgs - very solid thighs. As she says "baby has no hair" - he does have bit of fluff on his head. I cannot easily express the depth of my feelings for them both

funny funny faces

You are now another year older - what a wonderful 2 years - not always easy but worth it! These were taken on the way to playgroup - you decided you wanted to walk while I pushed the pram - you didn't mind posing along the way. You aren't camera shy anymore - sorry my son - I will take more of you soon and post them - we love you too - you are amazing - crawling and sitting at 5 months and you stood by yourself holding onto the couch the other day - your dad took the photo just as you fell backwards. I love seeing your toothless smile. You are keeping me up a lot at night though.
