This weeks' photo-a-day..

Before we (that's a giant family 'we') got ill, I got quite good at doing this one a day thing, however am now getting good at letting it slip, it seems. Anyhow, here's my catch-ups...

 

16/31

Sunglasses.

Nothing like a bit of comedy sunglasses wearing from the boy.

17/31
Green.
My favourite Anthropologie glass (currently being used as a toothbrush holder).
From the 'time before children' when I didn't mind paying over the odds for a toothbrush holder if it was pretty.
(Also from the time before my passport expired, the time before Anthropologie existed in the UK, and the time when I used to travel (wow!)
I've had this a while.

A corner of your home.

Lots of things I haven't seen (or touched) for years. Aren't everyone's bedside cabinet corners full of 'unthrowable away' stuff like mine??? 

Ah compilation cassettes, the good old days.

Oh no... scarlet fever...

Not quite the weekend I had anticipated unfortunately!
Despite today's glorious weather we are bundled up at home until the antibiotics kick in and we can go out and play again. After spending what seemed like a while day waiting in a hot stuffy out of hours surgery the doc confirmed T had scarlet fever, which is VERY contagious! Great.

Mr R and I both have the fever and sore throat bit, and I am so hoping that J will manage to muster up some superhuman strength and avoid it all together. Keep your fingers and toes crossed for us please, we are all knackered!

Anyway, sorry for the moan, but it's good to get it out of my system now.. and the fact that all 3 boys are now sleeping off illness it gives me a chance to have a scour around etsy to cheer my self up with some lovely 'STUFF'!

Hope you are all having a glorious day!

Getting behind with photo-a-day....

 I took the photos I promise...but just didn't get round to posting them (honest!)

14/31

Clouds.

I am NOT complaining that we have a lack of 'specific' cloud in the sky today (we have a sort of sheet of high white cloud, but the type that lets the sun through fortunately), but certainly nothing worth photographing. So instead, I turn to the boys bedroom for inspiration! See handy cloud light from Ikea!

(plus Badger, keeping a watchful eye..)

13/31

A sign.

Quite literally a sign. My lack of imagination evident today....

12/31
Someone you talked to today.
Well, it had to be one of the boys (since I'm not that great at asking shopkeepers/teachers/swimming pool attendants if I can take their photo.. and Mr R was not forthcoming.)
And yes, I did look like a mad woman talking to my sons shadow. Oh well.

10/31

Loud.
Holler!

Springtime Saturday

We were treated to an almost balmy spring morning, perfect for running off a bit of energy collected in our quiet week. Plenty of climbing, football, running and getting muddy. Just right for the boys.
After a hot chocolate (me) and a play on the slide (them) we stopped off at the Mossman collection for an indoor explore around all things old with wheels. (Basically.) Some great inspiration on the old trolley bus and Indian bedford van. Everyone came home happy.

Handwriting.
Signatures should always come with a rainbow, don't you think?

11/29

Makes you happy.

Well built 'daddy train-track' plus contented children. Lets open the vino.
