Week 8 of 52

Hi,

Another round of colds this week and two grumpy, snotty bears, three if you include me. I still think it's important for them to get outside even on a cold blustery February day such as today.

Haydy: I think that sad little face and the crusted snot under his nose sum up a large portion of this week quite well :o(


Marla: Sometimes I take a shot in which I feel I get a little preview of what Marla might look like when she's older, this is one of those.


Bonus sibling shot:  It is normally impossible to get a photo of these two together! Luckily I had their Dad around to help me out today.

Week 7 of 52

Hi,

Haydy: So happy to discover a new playground this week


Marla:  This is supposed to be a Woody from Toystory dressing up outfit but I think she looks more more Fleetwood Mac circa 1976

Week 6 of 52

Hi,

Another week rolls by, if nothing else, this project is highlighting to me how quickly time is moving.

Marla:  I don't know if other people experience this with their children but Marla is just a little bit obsessed with pregnancy and babies and spends a fair old chunk of her day with dolls, teddy bears, balls, drinking beakers etc stuffed up her jumper pretending to be pregnant.  It is often also demanded that I join in the game toO.


Haydy:  Nothing to say about this other than, I love that little face.

Week 5 of 52

Hello,

Here are this weeks offerings:

Marla:

It irks me that this picture isn't quite in focus (blooming hard to do with a moving target and a slow shutter speed) but I like her expression and the image of her at 6months old in the background*

*all the pictures in our house that are within Haydy's reach are permanently crooked, apologies to any OCD sufferers out there!


Haydy:

There is no reason for this image of Haydy other than for some reason his little head popping over the tabletop makes me chuckle.............simple things eh?

Week 4 of 52 (aka iphone sicknote week)

Hi,

Okay, so Marla has had a heavy cold for about a week and Haydy has had the teething snots'n'trots, then mid week Nick came down with the flu and I followed shortly after.  Excuses out the way, the truth is that with us all being unwell, the camera has not been picked up much this week.  My aim was to stay honest with this challenge so this week my photo submissions come courtesy of my camera phone.

Haydy: This is Haydy's Axel Rose impression, yep, the things I do to amuse myself.


Marla:  This was taken on the day that Marla insisted she was "too poorly to go to playgroup", doesn't look too unwell does she?, won't be falling for that one again!  She insisted on wearing her new swimsuit in the bath that night in case you were wondering

Week 3 of 52

Hi again,

It has been very grey and rainy this week but my little bears have to get out and have a run around at least once a day otherwise I pay for it at bedtime.  I took these pictures during a trip to the local park.

Haydy:
 
This is how my little man likes to swing 


Marla:

I like catching Marla mid expression, this was actually taken a split second before a 'stop taking my blooming picture' tantrum but it's quite cute nontheless!

Week 2 of 52

Marla:

It has been a grey and wet January so far.  This is Marla's 'bah, it's rubbish weather again' face as she stares out of her window.  

As a side note, this photo really shows up how grim and mucky our windows are.



Haydy:

This isn't your usual blog kind of image as pacifiers or dummies in my experience still seem to remain a bit of a controversial topic.  However, this is the truest representation of Haydy over this past week.  He has been suffering with the dreaded teething over the last few days and refuses to be separated from either his pacifier or Ewan the sheep for even a second.
