Baby I Spy.

Hot off the press....two new baby sized I spy quilts, for two babies to be. one in England, and one in country NSW....good for tummy time rugs!!

budding photographer....

Its so hard to get any candid photos of Scout nowadays. She has become camera shy or camera adverse!! yet she loves to play with the camera, and see what we have taken....so I got her to take some pics, and then its my turn...so I said SMILE!!!......
so she did!!

Scout takes one....

Grandma gets a turn....

Cool big decorations adorn the kitchen! Cherry organised to make cut out cookies for tree decorations. Scout helping to roll the dough. The tree looks pretty snazzy! wonder how long they will last with hungry boys around??

Scout had fun hanging red balls.
