Sisters : January

I’m going to make sure I post a picture of the girls together once a month to try to get a sense of their growing relationship.  With Marlowe now on the move its certainly shifting more towards playing with each other, she wants to be anywhere that Roxy is and play with everything Roxy is playing with, not always to Roxy’s enjoyment! Roxy regularly walks into me with armful of toys she doesn’t want Marlowe to get a hold of and the pitter patter of Marlowe crawling behind is never far away.

Hello 2016

Well its over 3 weeks into 2016 already, I hope it’s not a sign of the speed of the year to come! Its been a little strange not doing The 52 Week Project posts, I’m still not sure what will be best to do to make sure I keep up the regular photos! I think I’ll do monthly posts of a photo of the girls together and will see what takes my fancy or what inspires me beyond that!

2016 has brought so far a crawling baby, more winter colds and flu, a husband away for 8 days and a new camera. Its been busy but more the staying at home kind of busy!

Im super keen to get more use of my new camera, I love it already and have only had it a week, as the year went on I was getting less and less happy with the quality I was getting from my photos so I’m hoping for more sharpness, especially at lower lights as I take a lot of my photos indoors and lets face it there isn’t a lot of great natural light over here at the moment!

So like my 2015 weekly posts here are a couple of photos of the girls.

Roxy – Still totally in love with dressing up, this was her serving at Roxy Rapunzels Cafe, I think I got served a carrot a tomato and a sparkling water, can’t say its the most inspiring menu I’ve ever encountered but the exceptional service will ensure my return!

Marlowe- there is nothing stopping her now. My baby doesn’t feel like such a baby anymore, from crawling to climbing she is learning new tricks every day.

I did it! I finally finished the 52 project. For many weeks there I didn’t know if I would finish, but I did just in the nick of time!

I’m so glad I documented the boys for a whole year, its an amazing keepsake to look back on. I feel as though I have captured their personalities and traits as well as our daily life here as a family.

2015 has been a massive year for our family as we finally moved onto our property and into our shed. We started building our new home and Lukey and I went on an amazing overseas adventure! It was jammed packed but I wouldn’t have it any other way. My three boys mean the world to me!

Lauren and I started this blog as a way of connecting our day to day lives on a weekly basis. I also wanted a creative outlet, a reason to get my camera out and improve my photography skills. I think we have both grown and improved immensely. What an amazing thing we have just completed considering we both live on opposite sides of the world. Imagine what we could do if we both lived in the same country!

Also a huge thankyou to my beautiful Lauren this blog wouldn’t of continued if it wasn’t of you but you kept this running when I couldn’t. Thankyou!!

Cheers to 2015, I cant wait to see what 2016 will bring!
