When in doubt....paint

WE have been doing a little painting lately... I have been preparing for the move outside that comes with the warmer months (if our weather dares to make a decision!). Making sure the garden is weed free, sweeping, moving play things around outside. All in preparation for the adventure I am hoping that summer will be.....

Peaceful

I took this photo the other night - I think he will flip when he finds out I have posted a photo of him asleep. It is funny I am finding now men are a bit like children -in that they are so quiet and peaceful when they are asleep that you forget all the 'babe could you? or babe why haven't you?' that happened before they went to sleep.

Kisses

Went to the zoo - came home and told our Max the turtle that there is hope she will find love one day.

Family portrait

The words escape me at the moment - but hopefully will be back soon - this was the first family portrait the Madam drew for us.

L’éclipse...... my new love

Sean Lennon & Mathieu Chédid- L’éclipse


I am in love - shhh don't tell the Mr!

Suddenly last Summer

I thought this was a beautiful way to start the weekend (almost!) x

I think I can, I think I can......

Why does common sense more often than not mean not doing something? I have come up with a few ideas over the last few weeks and basically talked myself out of them with rousing round of common sense.
I can't do it because...... I shouldn't do it because.......Everyone will think I'm insane because.......

I know I have to be more 'sensible' (bloody hell) now that I'm 30 and have a miniature person to look after but I did not realise until this morning that being a 'grown up' and having a healthy dose of 'common sense' was making me a bit (in the words of the legendary Billy Connelly) beige.

I'm not being totally self deprecating - I assure you (and myself) I still have a healthy dose of lunacy within. It may be covered with a bit of sav blanc and reading far to many How to .. books but it's there!

I think I have just figured out though when it comes to making fairly hefty decisions whereas before I would be the one in the front seat driving without a map - now I am looking for a taxi and a GPS.

So.....

Screw the map, the GPS and the beige safari suit (great mental image huh!) I'm going to take the front seat in all my rainbow brite glory!
