My Sunday Photo – Tired out tots!

July 13, 2014

On Thursday I took the girls to London for a fantastic Amazon Instant Video event. I’ll be posting more about this in the next week, but for now I wanted to share this photo from the train journey home.

Georgie rarely sleeps in the daytime and hasn’t allowed me to put her in the wrap for months. She was happy to be snuggled up against my back and slept there for well over an hour – all really unusual! In this photograph Lydia has only just woken up from a quick nap in the pushchair and isn’t too happy about it. I couldn’t convince her to go back to sleep but we had lots of cuddles on our way home.

My Sunday Photo – The Italian Gardens

July 6, 2014

I went to London earlier this week, child-free, for a product launch and enjoyed spending some time in Hyde Park before the event began. The Italian Gardens are beautiful and it was such a treat to be able to sit and admire them for a quiet spell. So very pretty!

My Sunday Photo – Lydia Sleeping

June 22, 2014

I just love this photo of Lydia fast asleep after a busy morning at playgroup earlier in the week. She usually naps for around two and a half hours in the mornings so Tuesday mornings mean she has to stay awake a lot longer than normal, and she ended up crashing out on the way home.

She was very happy to wake up as soon as she realised it was lunchtime though!

My Sunday Photo – Spring

May 4, 2014

Spring has definitely sprung in our garden, and I have been out taking some photos. This one is my favourite, I just love the colours:

We have been delighted by all the flowers and plants that are blooming in the garden since we bought this house, and I look forward to seeing what else comes up!

My Sunday Photo – Happy Easter!

April 20, 2014

I just couldn’t resist doing this when I saw these sweet bunny ears in Paperchase on Monday.

It is going to be chocolate overload for our girls today, and we are off to have some fun at a National Trust Easter Egg Hunt today! Hope everyone has a lovely Easter & is enjoying the holiday xx

the outtakes – 18/04/14

April 18, 2014April 18, 2014

I love taking photos of my girls, and I have some pictures of them that I am really pleased with. I also have a lot of the other kind of photos; the complete failures, the downright ridiculous, and the unfocused, poorly-timed disasters. The outtakes.

Welcome to #theouttakes, my weekly linky for the funny photographic failures that don’t belong anywhere else.

This week I have several photos to share, all from the space of around 5 minutes! James was in control of the camera and Lydia was being a little bit nutty, enjoy the results…

Pic of the Week

My favourite photo from last week is the final photobomb from this post over at The Brick Castle. I just think it is absolutely hilarious!

My Sunday Photo – Lydia

April 13, 2014

Last night we were in the girls bedroom sorting them out for bedtime, reading stories and generally settling them down for the night. We must remember to pick up some batteries today, Lydia was unimpressed that Ewan has started to sound a bit ill!

James was taking a few pics of me reading to Georgie, for an upcoming review, and Lydia wanted to get in on the action. This photo is the result of that, and it seems to sums up her personality perfectly. There are also a lot of quite amusing not-so-good ones that will probablly be cropping up in #theouttakes next weekend!

Welcome to #theouttakes, my weekly linky for the funny photographic failures that don’t belong anywhere else.

This week I have a photo from our visit to my Grandparents to share. Trying to get a nice photo of my girls together isn’t easy when they don’t want to co-operate!

My favourite photo from last week is this one from The Soup Dragon Says… – that face really does say it all, and made me laugh out loud!

My Sunday Photo – Train tracks!

April 6, 2014

We finally had enough clear floor space to get out the wooden railway this week, and Georgie and I built this marvellously wriggly track! It was hilarious because Lydia was awake and so she kept trying to interfere. Every time Lydia tugged at a bit of track Georgie would yell “No Lydie, no d’stroying!”

I was pretty impressed by this track, we managed to squeeze in three rail bridges & one road bridge, a tunnel, a level crossing, a rail crossing, a turntable, and an awful lot of corner pieces too. Bonus points if you spotted the fat controller having a little lie down!

Georgie proceeded to then drive a bus all around the road & rail tracks singing “the wheels on the bus” which is one of her favourite songs right now. It was pretty adorable!

Welcome to #theouttakes, my weekly linky for the funny photographic failures that don’t belong anywhere else.

This week I’m going for this charming photo of Lydia with her beloved brown sauce. We let her have a little of this on her meals sometimes as she loves it… but if we make the mistake of leaving the bottle on the table she does her best to get it & consume it straight from the bottle! I just think her facial expression in this photo is hilarious.

My favourite snap from last weeks is this photo from Motivating Mum – it brought a huge grin to my face, talk about an animal invasion!
