52 | the ones that got away

I have so loved participating in the 52 Project this year. I take a lot of photos, and the discipline of just choosing one photo each week has been great. It's also so lovely to have a record of Anaru's growth and interests throughout these fleeting months. I already had a folder of 'out-take' photos I adored, but for one reason or another, weren't chosen that week - this is them.

As always, joining in with the beautiful Jodi of Che and Fidel and her 52 Project.

Anaru on his beloved Wishbone Bike on the afternoon of my birthday... we went for a wander and a ride at the Botanic Gardens, and the light was just perfect...

Last week I loved beautiful little Milinh in her strawberry romper / little toes and a pink tutu at Lamb Loves Fox / and the splashing pool legs at Expatria, Baby.

'A portrait of my boy, once a week, every week, in 2013'

A collection of Anaru's most loved things at 21.5 months old: his WildTribe shirt that has to be wrestled from him to be washed, green glass and a piece of bone collected from the beach, blue and green pencils, blue and green socks, a red shovel (digger!) that goes everywhere with him, his favourite book, Buddha and a frangipani flower, brown rice tamari biscuits and tamari almonds, and some blue pegs... I loved putting all of the items together and recording Anaru's interests and most loved items at this precious and fleeting time in his life... 

Last week I loved the Christmas preparations at A Day in the Life of Us / sweet little Alpaca's cheering up Kitty / and the eyes of wonder at Little Earth Stories.

Dancing for joy (he loves to jump and skip) on Noosa's beautiful main beach...

Somehow October came and went without me managing to find the time to record our week's in blog form... I have plenty of photos to choose from, so will be playing catch-up on my 52 Project in the lead up to the end of the year. I marvel at those amazing multi-tasking Mumma's who manage to maintain their regular, interesting, beautiful blogs.

Moody afternoon light and the little one running in the waves...
It has been the strangest September, weather wise... howling North winds (which don't normally arrive for another few months), an ocean full of sea lice, pumice stone piled high on the shore line... but, no matter the weather, the ocean is always a balm for the soul...

As always, joining in with the beautiful Jodi of Che and Fidel and her 52 Project.
