FINALLY, we have nice weather, and it is set to continue all the rest of the week. I made the most of it by popping out for a walk by the river and spotted this heron. I was very far from it, but as soon as I moved, it flew off and so I am […]

My normal full on day with the little ones, meaning I always find it tricky to take pictures on a Monday, but this afternoon I popped outside when the boys were momentarily occupied and had a bit of quality tie with Charlie.

After getting the little baby shoes out to use as props when my friend came to take some maternity shots, I have not been able to pack them away as the kids keep playing with them! Here is Felix, trying to stuff his porky toes into the delicate loafers, determined that they fit!

Today the circus is in our village! The boys have been behaving well whist daddy is away on a massive cycling trip to Paris, and so I treated them to the circus show that is in town for a few days. They loved it, although Alexei did keep muttering that the acts were not scary […]

Today was my turn in front of the camera, as the lovely Claire was here taking pictures of my bump and, when they agreed to participate, the two youngest kids! Barnaby missed out as he was at school, but when we chatted later stated that mummies and daddies had to have the same eye colour […]

I had a few hours to sort through some paperwork, but popped outside to enjoy the brief sunshine. I have not had a chance to do any gardening this year and this is normally my veggie patch, now full of weeds. But to me, a weed is just a flower in the wrong place, and […]

A quick stop on the way back home from swimming lessons, to admire the view and capture a cheeky smile once again.

Today we went to the field where the boys have football and tennis practice, for my husband to compete in the Hairy Legs Challenge – a 5k run, followed by a 20k ride, finishing with a 5k run again. Paul did really well and came 19th overall and 8th in the old fart category he […]
