Crazy Daisy

In years to come she'll kill me for posting photographs of her for all the world to see just how crazy she is, but seeing as she's not old enough to go on the internet on her own then i'll chance it.




Sometimes days in the garden make the best portraits.

Two new pics

We went out for a wintery walk last Sunday, Iris took her camera with her, but i don't think she took any photos at all, they were too busy posing for me and having fun.
I now have lots and lots of lovely photos for me to play around with now.

Daisy - Ziggy stardust

She did this herself yesterday and i realise it's still in her eyebrow now!

Girls on a bike ride

We went on a little walk today.  Iris scooted and the others rode their bikes.  After a while Iris decided she didn't want to scoot so she pushed instead, she decided she might like to bike ride instead.


We met a big horse who was rather sweet.

Three little girls being silly in wellie boots, in my boot.

Glinda with fancy borders

I've downloaded a new bit of software that acts like instagram (link or link) but on your computer instead of your phone, which is handy.
This one is called pixlr.com/o-matic/ and you can use it within the web browser or you can download it to your own computer.

2nd Cousin George (in law)

I guess he's my second cousin in law, though he must be Daisy and Iris's second cousin or second cousin once removed or whatever, lets just call him a cousin.

He's extremely cute and squidgy and small and cute and squidgy and he smells nice and he's got lovely squidgy legs and he's light as a feather oh and he's cute.

Polly, i'm now an expert again at holding babies, so you can go ahead and have your baby soon.

A few photographs from the last week.

Here are a few photographs from the last week.

Iris in her favourite position whilst being entertained by the Christmas telly.


Daisy being entertained too.

Girls foraging for yoghurts.

Iris's note for Rudolph pointing to her bowl of oats mixed with green glitter (which helps them fly back on the way home)

A very moldy cake i found in a tin in our kitchen, i have absolutely no idea where it came from, it's not home made cos it had a paper case.

And Stonehenge as we flew past on our way to Kent.

An old drawing of Iris'

I found this old drawing of Iris' in a pile of papers in my office, i'm not sure who it is of and i think it must have been done a good six months ago, i just like the teeny tiny letgs, so sweet.

School Photographs

I didn't really like the school photographs that Tulip Photography did of the girls, so i did my own.



Grandparents be warned you will be receiving these soon, make room on a suitable surface.

A Cardboard Skeleton

Blimey, it's about time i updated this old thing.

My dad (Grandad Nick) gave us a 3d cardboard skeleton jigsaw kit thingy a while ago.
He'd been given it by Michelle i believe and he thought it would be much more interesting giving it to me to try to put together.

Well i can tell you it was a bloomin hard job to put together.

The instructions were worse than IKEA, and a little knowledge of the bones inside your body would be helpful, which was why i enrolled Andrea in to help me who rather helpfully is an orthopedic nurse.


Now i believe i'm allowed to put these photos up of the children in Daisy's school as long as i don't name them, so these children will remain unnamed.

Cross Country Running

Daisy is in a cross country running team at school and on Tuesday she ran in her first race with lots of other children.
She did really well, she ran faster than a couple of girls who are older and bigger than her.

Fairies

In my never ending quest to create the perfect flower fairy portraits, here is the latest experiment with Daisy, just before i chopped some of her hair off.


This is Iris posing in her birthday nightie (that i made) and her birthday wings, wand and crown that she bought from a toy shop in Wells with her birthday money.


oh and this is just a little extra photo.

Fish Stock

We went down to Devon on the 10th to go to 'Fish Stock' in Brixham and the TAF's production of "Bugsy Malone".
Fish Stock Link
Torbay Acting Factory
Fish stock was fun, it was a bit fishy, the paella was rather tasty, there were some rather strange people, the music was a laugh and Marc did compering for a ready steady cook off .
The cook off was with Andy Sewell, the head chef at the Quayside Hotel in Brixham, against Richard Hunt, the head chef at The Grand hotel in Torquay.
Andy won.

Here are the girls on a trawler, they loved going down under the deck and seeing the little bunks where the men would sleep and little galley where they would eat their dinners.

Here is a rather strange fishy creature.
Here the girls are having their feet cleaned by tiny little fish, they said it tickled rather a lot.
This is a lady crab.
Daisy doing the rabbit ears on Iris.
Bugsy Malone was brilliant, the children who were in it were fantastic, well done my sister Polly for putting on a brilliant show.
