Here is the final part of photo a day August by Fat Mum Slim. Now that I've been doing it every day since May, it has become a daily habit. I have a few Instagram (IG) friends who have started their own challenges in September and invited me to play along. Hmmm I'm not sure how I'll go with 3 photo a day challenges! I'll stick to my current challenge and attempt the other two when I can especially as I'm already stretching my creativity with just one challenge as a stay at home mum who hardly goes out! I can see myself taking a lot of one pic fits all prompts type photos! lol
Day 16. Food: Doing some quick shopping at Coles down the road from Dees place and I ended up in Desserts - my favourite aisle lol
Day 17. Faces: My mother in law visiting from NZ finally gets to kiss her twin grand babies faces xo
Day 18. Inside: Our party of five plus Lilly went to celebrate our wedding anniversary and my birthday at the Garden Buffet restaurant in Star City. It is sea food and dessert Heaven inside!
Day 19. Hole: Boring prompt today. This is a plant peeping through a hole in our side fence
Day 20. Today: We took my met my mother in law shopping at East Gardens shopping centre and today I got some exercise chasing Keira from one side of the mall to other!
Day 21. Cool: Even though the days are getting warmer - the water is still cool. This was taken at Foreshore Road Beach, down the road from Dees place. Yes, we spent A LOT of time in that area while my mother in law was here. It's a lovely area but the drive to and fro with the babies was just tiring!
My fave four pictures of the month. Clockwise from top left:
Day 22. Home: After an enjoyable 10 day visit, Nana Lilly (my mother in law) flew home to NZ today (I love this unedited shot taken from Foreshore Road Beach)
Day 23. Pair: Montana's pair of feet are so hard to capture as she is ALWAYS on the move and she follows me on her hands and knees everywhere which is really annoying when I want to go to the toilet yet so cute too xo
Day 24. Path: All I hope for Keira and all my children is for them to choose a path of happiness - getting a little philosophical now when really I just asked Keira to run towards me on the path on our front lawn while I took a pic haha but yes of course I wish that xo
Day 25. Fresh: Fresh delicious blueberries. I was at a family function where a few of my friends complimented me on my photo a day pics on instagram. They asked me what today's prompt was - I told them it was Fresh and explained my the creative vision of taking a shot of the blueberries that were in my bag in water to create the 'fresh' look so my friend Tatiana offered to be my hand model and my cousin Lia did the water pouring. This was the stunning result of my creative vision. Not bad if I say so myself (haha lovo)
Day 26. Dream: I met my grandparents when I was 16 years old. When I was young I would dream of having them around. My children are blessed to grow up with their grandparents. My parents left today to go to East Timor for a month - the longest that they have been separated from their grandchildren and ironically they will see my grandfather! xo
Day 27. Tap: Keira loves to pick flowers in our front garden and then she likes to wash them under the tap
Day 28. Clock: No clocks in our home as we just use our iphones for the time so this is my Chanel watch that my brother got for me when he was in Thailand so I don't know how authentic it is but it looks nice :)
Day 29. Down: No escape for me when there is a little one holding me down soon to be joined by the other two. Alright my babies, the errands can wait for another day ;)
Day 30. Card: Keira signing her Father's Day card with a hand print xo
Day 31. Hidden: There are a pair of big gorgeous dark eyes and a pretty face hidden underneath Keira's wind swept hair. I think it's time for a hair cut! I've been meaning to take her for a while but never enough time (story of my life at the moment)
