Snapshots on life

Everything but the kitchen sink...

We had a lovely weekend away with Will on his first holiday. He travelled really well but we would have struggled to fit much more in the car so not sure how a longer trip would go! He slept in his pram bassinet but is about to outgrow it, so next time we will have to squeeze the portacot in as well!

I didn't get the camera out until this morning when I took some action shots of my brothers 7 month old boxer puppy. She is a real livewire but the most affectionate dog I have met (and our lab is pretty friendly herself). I'll upload them tomorrow and see what I managed to get.

My other job for tomorrow is to post off Will's thankyou cards. I know, I know, I'm slack. No excuses! Here they are (photos taken with my old point and shoot).

Storyboard

Thanks to Lisa I have been having fun making some storyboards using her template and instructions. I love the simple, classic layout of the template.

My favourite storyboard is this one of Will hiding under a blanket. He was lying on this blanket when he started pulling it over his face - I didn't have time to get a perfect shot so they aren't technically great but I love the moment that the photos captured.

Rolling over

I had Will all setup on his tummy to take a picture and guess what?! He rolled over!

He's done it twice before on the bed but this is the first time on the floor that he has managed it. He looked quite pleased with himself but of course I couldn't get him to replicate it for the camera. He just went back to chewing the blanket!

First pic here is SOOC with a 'warm up and intensify' action (itty bitty):

Second pic I ran a bw conversion from itty bitty (light bw with a warm filter). Not happy with the contrast though.

Both pics could have done with sharpening which I forgot before I uploaded.
