Sunday lunch with friends.....

Last Sunday we spent with our friends having lunch at their house. It was a perfect day. The kids played beautifully and us adults....well put it this way, lunch started at noon and I think we left just before 7pm!!! We also had many cuddles from Molly the dog. Thank you Jenkins family. We must return the favour soon.

William & Jacob (from Tamworth)

William & Jacob came all the way from Tamworth in January to visit us. They are Oscar & Jasmine's cousins. Much fun was had by all !

Beautiful Stradbroke Island.....

A day trip to Straddie......could it be more beautiful???? My next holiday destination me thinks.

Lil Miss Sophie and big brother Quinn.....

Farewell to my best mate......

Sadly, we got the news on Tuesday that our dog, Zak had bone cancer. Zak had been limping for a while but after 2 x-rays nothing was found....bloods then finally revealed that he had an aggressive form of bone cancer and because of this form of bone cancer, we were told that he had somewhere between 2 and 4 weeks to live :-( We were also told that he was in incredible pain. A tumour had formed in his shoulder (which explained the limp). Zak was 13yrs old, and suffered from arthritis in his back legs. But when we learned that he was in such terrible pain, we had to do what was best for him. Sadly, that meant giving him wings and sending him to be with the angels. Zak was an incredible dog. Almost human-like. We are devastated at having to give him up and watch as our other dog (Elly) grieves very deeply for him. He was put to sleep gently in mine & Geoff's arms on Wednesday afternoon. We hope you rest so very peacefully my darling boy. Gone, but never, never fogotten.

My first twin photo session....

Lil Miss "E" and Miss "A"

Talk about throwing myself in the deep end. Have never taken photos of babies before so I thought I'd start by having a twin photo shoot !!!! Ok, so it was a little more challenging than I first thought...only cos the babies are the boss on the day, NOT ME !!! We had one little one who co-operated beautifully and the other one was just over it all ! So after much wee, poo and crying, we managed to shoot some nice piccies...I even got to have a cuddle (or five).

Liliana.....

Just so you know.... I was the first one to take shots of our next Australian Top Model !!! This little girl (also featured below trying to feed her lollipop to her mummy's twin belly) is incredibly beautiful (and cheeky). I hope to shoot her soon with her new bubby twin sisters :-)

Tis the Season.....

My First Maternity Shoot...

Thanks to my friend Carla and her little girl Liliana, I managed to shoot some great photos. Carla is due to have twin girls in about 3wks time and she had such a beautiful belly!!! Liliana was such a doll, trying to feed her lollipop to the twins. We had a lot of fun....It was really a great morning.
