Just a few photos from the last few days – the weather has been a bit rotten, so we haven’t really ventured outside at all. I did end up buying myself a cheap softbox and lightstand yesterday, so I might start being a little bit more adventurous with lighting (I might have to get poor...

What goes up must come down
Someone rather famous once said that any idiot could get up Mount Everest – but it took real skill to get back down again.
George can now pull himself to standing, as you can see in the photo sequence below. Unfortunately, getting back down to his backside is the real challenge. At the moment he just...

The Birthday Boy!
One year old today! The little man has had a ball playing with his new toys this morning:

Playing with the trolley and blocks from Godparents Ross and Ang

Mummy insisted on a family photo. Yes, we’re in pyjamas.
