Baby and Me

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?

Five for the price of one

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

Weekend Endeavours

I had a very productive weekend last weekend. I made pumpkin soup and lemon cupcakes with lemon cream cheese icing. I also made a stormtrooper shirt for J by appliquéing felt cut outs.

Baking

Once upon a time I had this idea that if I didn't have to work, I would be at home baking all sorts of wonderful things. Now that I am at home, I am managing to fit in some cooking around child care. Last week I made triple choc biscuits. They were delicious and somewhere between a biscuit and a brownie. I had too much dough to fit on the two baking trays I have so there's some in the freezer for later!

It's been awhile

So it's been a while since I've posted anything. I've been getting back into my photography lately so I decided to resurrect the blog. This is what I've been doing since I last posted...
