Jeremy and Kelly's wedding..

It wasa beautiful Spring day. Perfect for getting married! Jeremy and Kelly both looked fabulous and were radiating happiness - which show in the photos I think.. Narmbool is such a gorgeous venue and the biews were amazing.. Evie and Piper were the flower girls and I could hve kept snapping away taking photos of them all day - way cute!

I was lucky to be a guest and enjoyed myself immensely. Although a wedding with an 8 week old takes it's toll on you! I was very tired by the end of the evening - especially seeing as my husband was a groomsman and was kept very busy all day!

Milla was an angel though and slept most of the reception..My beautiful baby girl.. I didn't take one photo of her or get one of me and Rodda...

Congrats guys.. They will be winging their way to Europe righ now!

Here are the girls bday cards, I always make all my girls b'day cards and write a special note in each...I can still barely believe they are five..

It has taken a full week to get their presents housed..

For the layout.. I have used a tag from a piece of her baby clothing.. Mel's idea..She gave me the little suit..that the tag was from.. The phot is one of my most cherished from her birth...Her first feed..I was shaking so much from the anaesthetic, but like the little trooper she is she got and went gangbusters!

Speaking of being a trooper..My poor little angel had her first immunisations today, at 8 weeks old.. one in each of her precious little legs and she has been off colour ever since.. I gave her some panadol and that helped a bit. Real tears for the first time... So I have included one of my fave photos of her little footsies..Close to being her legs..and a better photo prop!

I have more layouts to share asap..Had a bit of a play with the new Sassafras ranges.. Yummy and so cute with all the brights and animals..
Will share once I get them off my camera..

Night!

Happy birthday..

It was a very big week in our household last week. Jemma and Grace turned 5! We had cupcakes for kinder, cakes for their birthday dinner, cakes for their party.. Let's just say - I won't be baking for a while!

The girls also got HEAPS of presents. So much so that many are still in their packaging on our lounge room floor now! We could start a modelling agencies for barbies and bratz we now have that many!!

They also got clothes, make up (shame!), jewellery, Little People, playdough actvities and reading lamps for their bunks.. AND..

They got their ears pierced after their not so 'little' party at the plaster fun house.. Yikes! Grace cried a little but not Jemmy, who proudly went first because -

" I was first born!"

The photos above were taken during dinner out at a local Italian restaurant with family on their 'actual' birthday.. They owners gave them all a ball of pizza dough - which kept them all amused fr the entire evening!

Love you babes.. My little twinnigans, my angels, my growing girls.. Now with cute little shirt dresses, leggings, pierced ears and a new little sister, you appear to have grown up overnight..

Happy 5th Birthday..

Trying my hand..

at photoshop brushes, blog banners.. Like I don't have enough on my plate!

I think it looks ok??

I alsohave some photos to post..I did a mini photo shoot for one of my BFF.. and these were the results.. Little Lucas is ony two weeks younger than Milla..

Hope you like them Nik...They are ready for you..

It's nice for the occasional touch of blue on a pink girly world..

Creativity alive and well..

Well it was! I did these last week..

This week a little more tired... I have just got up from a nap and am waiting for M to wake up now too.. So a quick post of what I have done.. I love the first photo.. Rodda took it when she was only minutes old..

Felt a bit wistful about my bump..So I scrapped those photos.. Mind you I am completely overlooking the swollen hot feet and associated conditions that went with the bump...The human condition I suppose to ensure we all have more kids!! LOL!

I have done nothing but scrap Milla...So I changed course and scrapped Jemma. This was one of the first RAW images I took - whilst we were on holdiday in QLd in May... I love the circle..

And of course my Ali Edwards inspired birth layout that I simply love the result of... A bit of a change of pace, using a slightly more graphic feel..

Mind youhaving completed all of these. I have noted my current obsession with all things scalloped!! LOL!

Bye for now!

Black and white beauty..

Here is my attempt at some traditional black and white photography with Milla Moo...I had her laid out on some black fleecy material I have bought for other photoshoots..

I nuded her up - for authenticity of course (hehe) and she obliged by weeing all over the material in five minutes flat! But I did get these three lovely shots and a sweet one of her bottom (which I thought I had best not post!)

Check out the tiny little rolls developing - yay baby!

Having a busy school holidays so far - we have been out or had visitors every day this week. Still going out tomorrow and Friday.. But kinda need to as Rodda will be sleeping off his 2 night shifts - eek! On my own ALL night...

Wish me luck in getting three girls, one baby, two dogs, three cats and me fed and ready for dreamland!

Bye!

Some layouts at last!

t's amazing how quickly after giving birth the creative energy returns. I was itching to scrapbook fairly promptly.. Had to wait to recover and I also had to wait until I wasn't napping all my spare time away!

Mind you spare time is at a premium aroud here. It is 8.30 in the morning and Milla rises around 7.30.. The other 3 girls get up MUCH later.. So I have found this a good time to post anyway. I have already put on a load of washing and am boiling the kettle for my brekky..

Thank goodness for the school hoidays.. It means 2 more weeks before I have to work out the nightmare of the school/kinder run with a 6 week old! Rodda has gone back to work today.. So it's D-day around here.. How will I cope on my own - with four..

I'll let you know tomorrow!! Hehe!

It's amazing what you learn to accomplish in little snippets of time though.. My scrapping and photo editing is done when she is asleep, or content in her bouncer.. I am learning that 'near enough is good enough'... I am happy with the layouts.. Just happy to be actually WANTING to scrap really!

Mind you I have also made to frames for gifts and I think I might attempt to get the sewing machine out for a layout today...

I must be mental..

Wish me luck for today.. Gonna go hang with my Mum and even might grab a little exercise.. OUt for a walk on this windy Spring day..

Bye..
