My new baby

Wow… so um… it sure has been a while!

I’m so pleased to announce that my precious baby boy has arrived and somehow (in the blink of an eye) is already 7 weeks old. Where does the time go? Newborns really are such delicious time wasters. We’ve named him Grady, which means noble and intelligent. He is such a delightful little thing and is totally adored by the whole family especially his big brother!

He loves…

Snoozing in his rocker. Snuggling with Mummy after a feed. Kisses from his older brother. Raspberries on his tummy. Soft cotton wraps. Kicking his legs in the air. Chatting to Mummy when no one else is around. Long walks attached to Mummy.

We love…

His chubby little legs. His gorgeous gummy smile. All that hair! Sleepy cuddles. Bubbly gurgles. Bright eyed stares. Perfect little toes. How much his big brother loves him.

Life with two little people to care for is slowly starting to settle into some vague routine so I’ll be taking a small number of clients again starting in the next few weeks.

If you are interested in booking me for a shoot, make sure you get in early as places are very limited.

More photos of my new baby to come soon!

Maternity leave

I’m counting down the days until my latest bundle of joy arrives! My darling husband was kind enough to take this photo for me of my ever expanding belly. He did such a great job as I am a terrible model (talk about backseat driver…). Fortunately he is extremely patient and also pretty handy with a camera too!

Anyhow, I’ll be taking a little time off to adjust to life with two little ones but will be taking on new clients again from September of this year. So if you would like to book a session, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Newborn sweetness

This gorgeous little guy gave me a run for my money and decided that it was much more fun to be awake! We won in the end though and boy was it worth it! Such a little sweetheart and so lovely…

This little guy was such a great little model. So calm and happy! Mum and Dad came a long way to have these photos taken. Thanks so much for letting me capture your gorgeous little man.

Day twenty eight

I made it! Today is the last day of my photo a day challenge… I can’t believe I actually managed to take a photo for each day! I had big plans of actually putting lots of effort into todays photo, but as usual, the day got away from me and this was the best I could do. I think Riley will be relieved to be able to have a bath without Mummy hovering over him with camera in hand!

Day twenty seven

Little Riley, all ready for bed. Bath? Check. PJ’s? Check. Teeth brushed? Check. Story read? Check. Acting like a crazy little jumping bean? Check.

Day twenty six

This is Plex the magic robot from Yo Gabba Gabba. He is a firm favorite in this house and always brings a smile to Riley’s little face. If you are a regular viewer of ‘Gabba’ you would know that Plex has many powers – he can stretch his arms really far, add up large numbers in his head and remember the answer and most importantly he can often entice Riley to eat something just because Plex likes it. What a handy little robot!

Day twenty five

Yes, another bath photo… I had plans for all sorts of photos today, but they just did not eventuate. My boy and I were having too much fun just hanging out together to think about the camera until bath time!

Day twenty four

He still looks so small from where I’m standing. Still looks like a baby to me… but I know he is not going to be my ‘baby’ for much longer. *sob*

Riley turns ‘the big’ two in a bit over a month. I just can’t believe it! He still seems so small, but then he does things like yells at the TV to warn the cartoon dog that a train is coming. “Watch out Doggie!!!” he yells. Or chatters excitedly to Daddy about his day when he is going to bed. “Park! Swing! Slide! Horses, grass and carrots?”

I just wish I could bottle him at this stage sometimes. Surely 22 months is the cutest age ever?

Day twenty three

Due to popular demand, we went to the park again today. Much fun was had by Riley. Mummy also got quite a workout chasing Riley from activity to activity. Riley was not too happy to be told that the firemans pole that started 2 m above the ground was not within his solo abilities, but besides that he had a ball. Leaving is another matter of course…

Such a sad little face looking longingly out the car window to the playground. All good things must come to an end.
