to the sand and seaweed at twenty weeks

.

 

and here is the little bit of fun that we had while down aimee's way for our 20 week shoot.

keep thinking how lucky we are to have you photograph this special time for us xx

to the beach

Maybe it is the memories

the change of pace that brings us there
the sense of vacation
maybe the smell of the place
the sights of the gulls, the dunes, the grasses
sliding beneath the soles
smoothing my skin
clearing my mind
unburdening me of the rest
drawing me to the tactile, the feel
of beach sand.

over the first week of january, we took ourselves on a much deserved holiday to the seaside! and not just any seaside - we went back to the summer holiday destination of my childhood. ah yes, port gregory. what more can i say? endless hours spent relaxing and frolicking on the shore, sunny days, happy nights, and being surrounded and loved by our family made for a really special holiday. mmmmm so relaxing. will try and savour that feeling for a moment longer x

'till next time xx

comic relief

i just had to share this little video with you all - hopefully it will bring a little humour to your day, as it did for us :)



this was the first time eamon had managed to climb into his toy box - and i couldn't resist the temptation to record it in some way - quickly grabbed the point and shoot and started filming.

and then...oops! poor little fella. such a coincidence that i happened to be filming at the time.

i showed ben after he got home from hospital - the laughing hurt so much he made me promise not to show him again for a long time. you see these kinds of vids on funniest home videos all the time but its SO much funnier when its your own kid :)

a spring in your step

we've made it! winter is over and spring has finally arrived!

to celebrate the return of long sunny days and lovely balmy nights i took some outdoorsy shots of the girl next door... harper d. :)

she was having as much fun on the swing as i was, taking photos with the beautiful big sun behind her... hooray for warmer weather!
