Please dont bother trying to find her...she's not there....


Well, If anyone is still out there..Martha has upped and left. You can catch her HERE, from now on, but she isn't alone....
Ok, here's what happened, a couple of months ago I was made redundant from the studio I worked in, so I've been working for myself, blogging my sessions as I go. I was intending on keeping up this blog too, but hey, I'm just not that productive. Maybe I shouldn't be mixing my personal work with business, but for now thats the way its gonna be. It would be lovely if anyone could stop by, we'd love to have you, and any feedback about the new site, or the whole mixing business and personal work thing would be much appreciated.
Ciao for now!
Come with me...and you'll be...in a world of pure imagination...

Where the mountains of Mourne sweep down to the sea....

........There's beautiful girls here - Oh, never you mind
With beautiful shapes Nature never designed
And lovely complexions, all roses and cream
But O'Loughlin remarked with regard to the same,
That if at those roses you venture to sip
The colours might all come away on your lip
So I'll wait for the wild rose that's waiting for me
Where the mountains of Mourne sweep down to the sea
by Percy French
 
Well this is where we spent our Easter Tuesday, And what a day it was, The Mourne mountains were covered in snow and looked so imposing, I've never really appreciated the scale of them until today, the snow made them look like they were in HD! Then we had the beach, where the sunlight was so bright it was difficult to take photographs in, and the wind! 'It would have cut your face off'
But we had a great day, apart from a MAJOR huff by herself over a tennis ball (seriously?) made a picnic (which we ate in the boot of our car), went to the amusements and bought a kite! Daniel had never flown a kite before, and I think he was more thrilled by it than Martha.
Oh and Big Roo pulled.
Atta Girl.


Huff much?








How you do'in?

Butternut Suash 'locci'

Ive seen loads of posts lately about what peoples wee ones are eating, so I thought I'd jump on the bandwagon and share one of Martha (and my) favourite recipies. Also Uncle Jesse was asking for this recipie at Christmas so here you go! Its a little bit free-styled but you can find the origional recipie HERE.
I added some crispy bacon to this recipie for himself.







Little nuggets of heaven. YUM.

Home Girl

Howdy! Its been over a week since I've blogged! And I've not even been up to much. Usually I am trying to get out of the house as much as I can, but this week the weather was horrible (I know, I can hardly believe it myself) and Martha discovered Toy Story 3, so we were very content to hang around the house and watch movies, annoy Big Roo, do jigsaws, paint faces and bake buns.
At the weekend we took a race down to Nanny Mac's house (Martha just ADORES her nanny) and to paraphrase Granda Mac we 'kibbled about' down there for the day.
My sister came over so I would take some photos of her bump, her other little girl ain't even one yet! She is a champion and has the heart of a lion.

Mothers Day on the Hill

Happy mothers day all! I was supposed to be working today, so we weren't doing anything for it, but there was a change of plans pretty last minute so we headed down to my mummy's house (she made dinner for everyone-not much of a mothers day for her!) where my sister and wee niece were hanging out today. I had planned to get a nice photo of myself and Martha as I dont really have any, and one of Martha with her Nanny and one of the three of us together, but hey, you take what you can get eh? There was one person missing tho,... you know who you are.x



Gorgeous Grace!

Young Love

This afternoon Jack came over for a little visit, and after a while bouncing on the trampoline in the (yea you guessed it) RAIN, we had to tempt them in with chocolate and get them stripped and dried in front of the stove. Unexpectedly they gave us this wonderful display of affection that was so genuine and sweet. They really love eachother! May I point out that Jack is wearing Martha's (unisex) jammie bottoms, as his wee jeans were soaked.
