Now and Then

Another old post that I had saved and never finished.But the photos are too cute not to share!

Now and then at Melbourne Zoo (21 months old,  4 months old).

As Arthur approaches his second birthday there are a few things I want to remember before he grows up too much. 

Things I want to remember:

::The way he says more. Sometimes more quietly with a question mark at the end…more? . Sometimes loud and demanding in threes…more, more, more.  Sometimes full of self assurance and certainty….one simple more.

::His cackle laugh.

::When you tell him to smile for the camera he scrunches up his face and 'smiles' with his eyes. 

::"Hiya" the way he says hello.

When I was two, I was hardly new

It has been a long time since I posted anything on this blog. My computer was out of commission for awhile and frankly I needed a bit of quiet. I had these photos already to go and saved but then my unintentional break happened and I never added the words- and so, for a few months, it was forgotten. But I do love looking back at this little journal and seeing our little life story unfold. So here are some photographs from Artie's 2nd birthday. 

There was a boat ride to Southbank, some chocolate pizza for lunch, playing in the sand and water at Soutbank and cake at home. There was also a lovely family party at the park the next day. 

We have a delightful two year old now.
