This one is especially for you "Poppy"

Ok so this post must be way overdue, I keep being reminded by my dear father in law that I need to add some more photos. So here they are.

First off we have a few pics of her cute little face, she is changing daily and I'm just trying to absorb my beautiful baby girl as much as I can. Sometimes my face literally hurts from smiling at her. She is simply DIVINE in every way, it never ceases to amaze me how much love you can feel for your own children.

A sneeze action shot. Hehe it makes me laugh out loud :) 

And here is a colour photo because I know my parents prefer a bit of colour :)

As for life with us, all is good, actually NO all is GREAT. Minna loves her sleep YAY!!! just like her brother and sister she loves to be in bed dreaming about her favourite things. Her record for sleep so far is 11 hours straight, yep what a good darling, she knows how to make her mum happy. As for other things she is making all sorts of baby noises, she loves to have deep long conversations. She loves listening to me sing nursery rhymes (I'm sure that will change soon, I was not blessed with a singing voice)

Thanks for checking in and don't be shy, add a comment.....

Oh and here is a macro photo I took the other day, I'm sharing it just because I can :)

2 Months old already!

The last 2 months had be jam packed with all sorts of adventures for us. Wow having 3 kids is not what I thought. In many ways it is easier than 2 but in other ways it is so much more hard work. The easier bit is that the older kids have each other to play with and are not jealous that Mummy is spending so much time with the new baby. The harder things are juggling normal duties like getting one ready for school in the morning while also trying to do a load of washing, do breakfasts, make sure teeth are cleaned and kids are dressed, Lunch is packed and baby is fed and happy! Oh and yes there is myself to attend to also. 

On with some photos.................. 

Sadly she gets that frown from me and the other 2 kids got that gene too. I swear the frown doesn't mean we are unhappy people ;-) 

Day - I have no idea............

So I need to slow this blog down a little, everyday it seems to get harder to find the time. From now on it will be when I've got the chance :) 


Minna is doing well, she is now gaining weight quickly and even has chunky thighs! she is getting more and more active and her favourite thing to so it smile and chat when she is awake.  8 weeks have gone by so quickly, she is now due for her immunisation and Leo is just about due for his too. 


On with the photos, these were taken a few days ago :) 

Oooops a bit late: Day 24; 25; 27; 28

Photos from the last few days minus Australia Day, I was too busy taking it easy at our friends parents house by the pool, water + camera don't mix. 

Day 24 - my parents came down for a couple of days to visit :)  here the kids are doing the obvious..... drawings. 

Day 25 - Someone got their hair cut!!! she wanted a fringe badly and I think it looks quite cute.

Day 27 - Yesterday I had a visit from an old mate Pete, we used to work together many years ago.  The last time we caught up Abby was only a few months old!. This photo was taken with his 50mm Sigma 1.4.(I won't be buying one :P)

Day 28 - Back to School!!!!!! it all went well considering someone was a bit nervous about which teacher she would get. She got a good one :) actually they are all great there so there was no issue.

Day - 23 My Big girl

She really loves having her photo taken, it's good for me too. I not only get to play with the camera but I get to have nice photos of her growing up. 


Oops forgot to take a photo of Scott! oh well it will happen one day. 

Day - 22

Posted a day late. Someone asked me the other day how I get time to do this blog, well I don't really have time that's why the posts are a day late every now and then :) 


Yesterday we tried to give Minna a new hair style, her mohawk is a bit out of control but Scott does think it looks cool. 


Today I'm going to try and get a photo of Scott, as a friend of mine pointed out he isn't in one photo yet, but hey neither am I, but I rather it that way. I'm not promising a photo of Scott but I will try. As for me I'm now on a health kick so when I'm feeling better and looking better you'll get a photo of me. 


On with the photo. Minna having a cuddle with her poppy. 

Day - 21

We took the kids to the Ophthalmologist today for their eye check up. Leo's vision has improved slightly which is great! We also had Abby's eyes checked and were given the all clear, phew! 

Minna is changing so much, I swear I can almost see her eye lashes growing, each day they seem longer and thicker, I'm hoping she takes after Anne (my mother in law) she has the best set of blinkers. Oh and her hair! talk about mohawk we try and flatten it down but is springs right back up, she looks like a little punk rocker. 

Photo/s of the day, Miss Abby, I always find it hard to decide on colour or Black and white so here are bother versions. Her smile isn't 100% Abster true but I didn't have time to get another so it will have to do and hey it's still cute.
