Daily Photo Challenge - Week 25

Another busy week in our little world but another week of photos done and dusted!  We had the shortest day of the year this week which is great because it means the days will start to get longer (and hopefully warmer!) soon.

This week I had the pleasure of photographing the lovely Bundy family.  Candice and I have been friends since high school, and late last year her and Josh had Mila who is now a smiley bubbly 7 month old.  Normally I dread these types of shoots, I'm by no means a professional photographer and even though the shoots are favours as opposed to professionally-paid, I still feel a lot of pressure to get it right.  Fortunately though Mila was fantastic, and just as photogenic as her amazing parents so I was pleased with the results - the best of which you can see as my daily photo for June 24th.  It is wonderful to see how she has grown - you can see a photo of her as a ten (?) week old on my Jan 14th photo of the day.

So here's the round up for this week!

Daily Challenge - Week 24

Blessed with lovely weather this week, and more determination I managed to get some the light at each end of the day (or at least more creative photos without it!).  This week saw me being solo mum for a couple of nights while hubby went to Wellington on business, I don't know how single mums do it!  And fair to say I'm in need of a break (I say while the 2 year old is busy trying to get onto my chair while I type - thinking a tantrum is on its way in about 30 seconds!).

So that said here are the photos from this week!

Daily Photo Challenge - Week 23

Highly disappointed with my photos this week.  The end of the day is killing me, and lack of time is killing me more.  Mostly snap shots this week as that is all I could get, bring on June 20th!

One highlight of my week though was Saturday afternoon when my good friend Saph brought up a little playmate for Ash.  If you follow my blog, or are a friend you will know who Jen is, and we were very blessed to have a chance to play with her gorgeous wee girl.  For someone who has lost her mum at such a young age she is indeed remarkable which isn't surprising given her amazing mum and even more amazing support network.  I hope that Ash gets to hang with her more often :)

Enjoy!

Daily Photo Challenge - Week 22

We're officially on a Winter timetable now, the mornings are chilly, weather far less reliable but still we are blessed with many autumn leaves and some stunning days.

No official theme this week so my shots are just of our little world.  This week has been remarkably busy again so my photos have suffered but at least I'm getting the shots in and keeping the momentum going for when we have a bit more light at the end of the day once again.

The toot toot obsession continues
