101 Things

I came across the Day Zero Project on a forum I visit and thought it would be a good thing to do. The basic idea is you come up with a list of 101 things you would like to complete in 1001 days (about 2.75 years). For me, it took a while to think of 101 things but eventually I got there. I started my list on 13th Sept 2010 and I'm due to finish on 11th June 2013 (the day before Xanthe's 3rd birthday).
As part of my list, here is my self portrait from week 1 and some pictures from the weekly trip around the lake.

Daddy's Day Out

Last Sunday we celebrated J's special 1st Father's Day with a picnic in Kings Park. It was a perfect day for a picnic and Kings Park was packed. However, one of the good things about Perth is that even on a busy day, there was still plenty of room in the park.

So there's not very many photos of me and Xanthe because I'm normally behind the camera. I find it hard to take self portraits because I never know whether I'm in frame or in focus or if my hair looks any good! But practice makes perfect so I headed into "the studio" today to take some shots. This was pretty much the only decent one, I love the look on Xanthe's face. I have a feeling I'm going to see a lot more of that look in the future.

Beach Time

On a beautiful winter Saturday we took Xanthe to the beach for the first time. While J and Xanthe went for a walk along the coast I took some landscape pictures.



When they came back, I took the opportunity to take some portrait pictures.

Outing

At 10 weeks Xanthe had her first trip to the WA Museum. A scientist in the making perhaps?

I recently made this story board of baby pictures for J to take to work.
