I wasn’t sure what to shoot today, as my back was hurting and so I didn’t move around much – but after a ride out with daddy, Alexei wanted to show me how good he is on his balance bike, so I quickly popped outside to watch. Think he is ready for pedals now!

After a go-kart party, and a winning performance, Barnaby was on great form and happily obliged to be a model in a field full of rapeseed. His willingness to pose did not extend to having a natural expression, or even smile, and so I had to let him show off his medal in order to […]

May The Fourth Be With You…..

It was Grandpa’s birthday on Wednesday, but we didn’t see him then, and so everyone was very excited at his visit today. I am not sure if the kids were more worked up about seeing him, or blowing out the (numerous) candles on his cakes …. two cakes and each child had to take each cake […]
