Furry-nuff!

I wasn't going to blip him...honest. Can you feel my shame? That's three days in a row. But he put his hood up and said, "I look cool mummy...shoot me!" So what was a mother to do? He's turning into a real poser, but it makes my life easier ;-)

I've stopped taking my big camera out when we're on a family walk as it's too heavy for me to lug comfortably while clutching a dog lead, holding a toddler and clambering over stiles and fences! My G9 is great for a lot of stuff but I'm now learning how to take better portraits with it, for when I don't have anything more suitable with me. So this is portrait practice and is my justification for posting yet another toddler pic. Note the little stream of snot from his left nostril...I could have cloned or healed it out but hey...toddlers (or at least *my* toddlers) come with a perpetually runny nose...it's real innit!

Woke up to bright sunshine and an arctic wind! Noah seemed in much better health so we ventured out for a quick walk to blow the cobwebs away. The wind took Noah off his feet at one point and I caught him as he sort of blew past! Crazy weather.

Roast dinner on and a shed-load of ironing to deal with...I'm trying not to think about either...the first because it smells so good and I'm starving and the second because I can feel my soul die a little every time I glance at the ironing pile, which is hard not to do at the moment as it has reached monumental proportions.

Right...I'm going in...
