The room where we had Granny's birthday party was about 100 degrees celcius. Insane! The heater was on full blast and no-one could work out how to turn it down. So all our family photos look like it was the middle of summer - we're all in singlet tops and t-shirts with red cheeks, lol.
And here's another layout, now that I can finally update:
[removed for publication]
Early this morning as you finished your feed and I sat you up on my lap, I caught sight of your face in the faint dawn light. We silently exchanged smiles and then you heaved a giant contented sigh - almost exaggerated - and slumped forward, totally relaxed and milk drunk. For some reason that silent communication, that combination of smile and sigh, touched me. Was this my first thank you Mum?
And this one, of my brother-in-law and his two gorgeous boys. Unfortunately the scan has cut off about a cm off the LHS of the LO. But you can imagine it being balanced :).
The regular trip to the deli for bread and the paper. Two little boys. One steep hill. Four little legs that tire easily. One strong rope that pulls little bikes up hills and controls runaways on the way down. One very weary dad at the end of the journey.
Yay! Finally I get to upload some piccies again. Well, it's bedtime again. Jamie doesn't seem to want his midnight feed. Again. So I'm off to bed. This weaning thing is making me a bit sad. No more milk at midnight. No more milk at lunchtime. No more milk at teatime. And you know the worst thing? ;) no more cake and biscuits for mummy.

Gorgeous Layouts!!!!
Wow, where have I been? You've been up to so much since I last checked... and I thought I checked every day or two - obviously not! Your layouts (and photos) are just beautiful. Love the softness of Jamies photo, and I just love the pic of your BIL pulling his boys on their bikes - classic! And so beautifully scrapped. Gorgeous, gorgeous work, you are getting me very motivated.
your photos are really beautiful!
i know what you mean about weaning... its great to have the extra sleep, it makes going out a little easier etc etc - but it is a little sad too!
Kathie, Your layouts are beautiful. I LOVE your journalling....so profound, honest and touching...and the same thoughts keep coming into my head when I see your work, how blessed is this little boy, when he sees his mummy's work and reads what she had to say....WOW.

Im not enjoying the weaning thing much either - only the morning feed left - which has been at about 4 am the last couple of mornings :( and he hasnt seemed all that interested really. OUr babies are growing up way too quickly!

What a gorgeous collection of photos...I love the ones of Jamie with Granny...and your layouts are just stunning too....particularly like the one of your BIL with his boys..that is just too cute.
I once again...just feel morphed back in time by your journalling ..you are such a talent.
Terrific photos, what precious memories for Jamie as he gets older.
I saw your layouts on the boxx gallery and as always they look stunning Kathie.
Have a wonderful day and enjoy the week end:)
wow Kathie - I have finally had some time to catch up reading some blogs and I have to say that your work is just beautiful - so hard to pick a favourite, but i do love the 'tiny one' LO.

Wudnerbare Layouts, Kathie! Und die Bilder sind so schön. Kleine Kinder mögen irgendwie immer total gerne alte Leute.
