2 minutes with a smiler

I've been inspired by mamarazzi and co. to try storyboards. So (with Photoshop help from Mr Turner) here is my first attempt:

Not a Wiggle in sight!

Between reading mamarazzi & co. & Becoming Sarah I am more determined to stop being lazy and to use my D200 rather than my point & shoot. Although the P&S is much easier to wield in public!

Beware - storyboards are addictive and may take over my life.

P.S.: These were taken in his pushchair! He's been in the Xplory more this week, not because I want to get rid of him - nothing could be further from the truth). It's the least sweaty option for him when we are out in Florida's sweltering heat and carrier or pushchair are the choices. Ideally we could travel in an air-conditioned bubble at all times (!) We use it as a high chair in restaurants too. I LOVE how high the Xplory is; it really is great for Isaac to be able to see everything going on around him - he's such an inquisitive little fellow. We get LOADS of positive comments about it and how good it is.

Big up Stokke.

Stuff update

Not been doing very much of late what with it being so flipping hot & sticky. So here is a picture of the chest in the nursery:

We finally decided to go with the original curtains. You can kind of see them in the picture.

Here is a picture of the Stokke!!

Isn't it amazing?! I keep playing with it. Can't wait for the Turner Prize (as Auntie Maj calls it) to make it's entrance so I can put him/her in it!

I have another midwife appointment on Thursday so I'll write more after that. Work is becoming incredibly tedious & I'd like nothing more than to have started my maternity leave. I shall persevere for as long as I can so that I get more time with The Wiggler post birth. I get "foot in diphragm/ribs" quite a lot and "bladder punch" too which is an unusual experience to say the least. I shall be glad when I have my body back to myself again! Then I can sit without the feeling that something is stuck in my ribs, which it sort of is I suppose.

I sent Simon a Father's Day card from The Wiggler - he found it highly amusing. I'm glad he did because it took long enough to learn how to do speech bubbles on Photoshop without asking him for help!

Cheese-o-rama

It's my ELBOW at the top. Anyhoo...I'm off to be hot & sweaty away from the computer now.
