Along with the fact that I haven’t posted in a few weeks, paired with the constant reminders of my Mum that she hasn’t seen photos of our girls in too long….I thought it best that I pull up my socks and post a little something. Of course as every other person out there knows, it’s a crazy hectic time of year – and on top of client orders, Mummy duties, Christmas shopping, sick kiddos and party planning I’ve still got to remember to get a few festive shots of the girls. I got out the fancies the other day, but much to my surprise Miss Nevaeh was having none of the frills. She wanted “cool” clothes…..”like I’m six, okay Mummy”?! Well, why not. So, although there isn’t much of anything festive going on in these photos, try to imagine me singing Christmas songs in the silliest voices possible in order for them to pay attention….that’s festive, right?! Nevaeh somewhat cooperated, and Miss Eve? Well, at 9 and a half months she is a little fireball. Go, go,go…I had to catch her with my feet while I was crumpled into a corner trying to fit them both into the frame. The things we do:) I can’t wait to see what she’s doing in the next few weeks……she’s now able to stand completely on her own for a good 15 seconds and is saying her first little words…..Papa’s watch gets ” gick…….gock” ( tick-tock ) and “book” is pronounced with a “g” in front. Silly little thing. And at 4 years old Nevaeh is starting to learn about hand-eye coordination, as her Dad would say. She is learning to LOVE video games. Drives me absolutely nutso, but of course there are limits set by moi….. and she is pretty darned good at games, even if I cringe every time they play! Does this form of entertainment drive any other Mum’s bonkers?! Oh, it gets to me……..the hubby thinks it’s hilarious and says I’m just envious that she could kick my butt!
So here they are….my attempt at some shots for Nanny to see how grown up the girlies are getting. I must say that this time of year feels soooooo restricting; these shots are the same ol thing I keep taking when it’s yucky out. Next shoot I’ll attempt outside in the white stuff…..once it warms up a bit, of course:) Alright, enough babble from me…..hope each and every one of you has a fabulous Holiday Season and a wonderful New Year; and don’t forget to leave a little blog love – it’s for a great cause this time of year…..1 comment = 1 can of food donated to the Food Bank. What better reason is there?!
Merry Ho-ho!!!!!
This one makes me want to go wake her up for a snuggle:)
How does time fly so quickly again?!
* Edited to add*
I almost passed this one by…..one of Eve’s “firsts” – a mini play with her little friend Milla. I did 3 shoots at our home this day so we got in a lot of play time! Little M is 6 weeks younger than Eve and I think they may be two of the cutest little things I’ve ever laid eyes on…..and can’t you just see the hair-envy in Eve’s eyes? I mean, come ON !
