14 weeks on...

It's been such a great 14 weeks since this little tyke came into our lives.
Despite the sleepless nights (mine mostly) and the howls and whines from time to time, he's brought just so much joy and sunshine -

that winning ready smile that melts your heart;

a look that says 'carry me please';

those rolls of fat on the tummy and thighs

perfect responses to words like 'splash', 'kick', 'tongue'

thunderous passing of gas be it from the upper or rear end which sends girls into peals of laughter

We love you so soo much and couldn't imagine our lives without you.
Something i created to celebrate our wonderful boy...

Scrappy happy

I had a rare reprieve over the last couple of days and created these using shots taken by my nieces.

Cousins @ Play
a treat for the girls as they got to
catch up with their cousins at a recent family get-together.
a lovely lovely day that certainly had to be captured for posterity.

(supplies: Crate Paper "Random"; American Craft "Garden Cafe"; 7G word stickers; Prima blooms) 

Crate Paper's 'Random' line is just awesome and the chips are too fun to play with. 
Mixed and layered the 'random' chips here with 7G word stickers.

Love the 'pop' of pink and yellow here against the more muted greys
i love love love this pic.
