Winter, Come & Gone

Yes we are glad to say good bye to winter.
But what did we do during those long cold days?

Well.. we dressed up and stayed home.














Stared into space and day dreamed.
        


We found some ways to amuse ourselves.






Sometimes we went outside.




And we ate.

And ate.


But mainly....... 

we ran round and round in circles - literally!

Day..

.. and night.


All in all, not a bad winter :)

Lucas' Photo Styling Tips

Hi, my name is Lucas and I am 13 months old.  Here are my Top Ten tips on how to look cool in photos.

Tip #1:  Put on the reddest shirt you have.  Look straight at the camera and frown a little.
(Here I am wearing my Chairman Mao quilted shirt)

 Tip #2: Or don't look at the camera.  It always adds an air of mystery when you don't show your face.

Tip #3: Hand-on-hip pose (if you don't know where your hip is, scratching your diaper achieves the same effect).

Tip #4: Clap your hands!  Yay!  Oh, sorry, this should go under baby stuff.

Tip #5: Pick an interesting background, like snow.
 And show some teeth!

Tip #6: Hold something, anything, in your hand (e.g. your daddy's precious coffee sachet)

Tip #7: Don't make life easy for the cameraman - Never stop moving!

Tip #8: Change your look - have wild hair.

Yes, even I was shocked.

Tip #9: Accessorise, accessorise, accessorise.

Tip #10: Strut your stuff!
