Now I am 10 Months...


10 months? Good-golly-mollie, only one more of these monthly posts and I'll be helping to blow out my sonny-boy's first birthday candle!

10 months and tearing about with purpose. If he wants it, it doesn't matter what it's gonna take to get it!
10 months and eating more than my 2.5 year-old.
10 months and a mouthful of toothy-pegs.
10 months and the ability to sip from a glass without spilling!
10 months and comfortable to crawl about the house for an hour at a time, by himself just looking. Discovering. Tasting. Dreaming, no doubt, of ways of creating future mischief... eating toilet rolls. Pulling the rubbish out of the bin. Eating that too. Pulling the glass lamp down off the stand. Climbing into the dishwasher. Pulling bottles of spirits out of the pantry and sucking the spout like a wino...

10 months, and 10 billion reasons I cannot imagine my life without my sonny-boy in it.

Love you, Elli-boo.

I am loving the school holiday vibe & the chance to wake up a little bit slower in the mornings (with out the usual agghhh hurry up hassle that starts the day!) I love being able to hold 2 little hands as we take a walk on the beach & being able to forget about watching the clock for the school drop off & pick up drive. We have a few plans for the next couple of weeks & with my husband taking some time off too it will hopefully give me a little time to fit in a few moments to catch up on editing photos & getting my little studio in order. 

Do you have a favourite holiday ritual? or something you like to spend time doing just for you?
