Birthday babe

What a wonderful day The Bean had with her friends and family.

Happy Birthday my beautiful girl x

A new best friend

To celebrate The Bean’s second birthday (where has the time gone? Honestly!), we had a little family outing to the ultrasound clinic for my 12 week scan—yes, she is expecting a little brother or sister! After many months of trying, weeing on sticks and anxiously counting down the days, we are finally looking forward to a new addition. 

Bush extravaganza

A nice little trip to Tidbinbilla today for the annual 'extravaganza', although a little on the warm side again—looks like winter will definitely be the best time to visit. Tidbinbilla is so very close to home and usually, wonderfully, feels a world away, except on days like today where it seemed half the city had turned out for the festivities!

Bye bye 'baby'

With my ‘baby’ girl turning two this month, I have cause to reflect on how quickly time has passed since I first saw those two lines on the stick – two little lines that were to change our lives forever.

Where there's a will...

A friend and I pushed the button today on what may turn out to be a very exciting adventure – our own photography business! We’re not giving up our day jobs just yet, but it sure would be nice to earn some pocket money doing something we love. At the very least we will be working our way towards our 10,000 hours.

I must admit my heart was pounding when we published our Facebook page. It’s nerve racking putting yourself and your passion out there for others to see (and criticise!).

Yesterday we shot some freebies for a friend of a friend, a young boy who keeps getting told that he should be a model. I have to say I agree!

Phew. 'Job' one down, what's next?

Welcome back summer!

After a fleeting appearance from autumn, it looks like I'll be packing the beanies and ugg boots away for a few more weeks yet! Lovely... 

We spent this evening in the glorious sunshine exploring the brand spanking new play equipment that has finally been unveiled. What fun!

Welcome autumn

The first day of autumn certainly arrived with a cold and blustery bang! A short walk in the park today provided lots of lovely photo opportunities and a few newly discovered locations.

The Bean and her dear little friend even managed to chatter and explore for a while before The Bean's complaints progressed to tears...
