"A portrait of my children, once a week, every week in 2016"
Samuel James - He experienced his first ice cream from a Mr Whippy truck yesterday. He was covered head to toe and was as happy as a clam.
Matilda Grace - While I have been busily trying to organise the house, this little possum has been putting just as much effort into pulling the house apart. Every time I turn around, she has emptied the contents of another cupboard or drawer, or in this case, my peg basket. I love her curiosity and have to laugh at her insistence to make mess (if I didn't, I'd probably cry).

Samuel James - He loved the beach! Oh how happy it made me to watch him filled with such joy, not scared of the waves or the chill in the water, just filled with joy.
Matilda Grace - My girl on the sand, tasting everything she could get her little hands on.

Samuel James - In his own little world, playing with his animals.
Matilda Grace - She wants to play with whatever Samuel likes, he's still her favourite, despite his rough guidance to not touch his things.

Samuel James - I like to step back and let him explore, but he always keeps an eye out for me to make sure I'm not too far behind.
Matilda Grace - Although she has been teething and awake a lot throughout the nights, she is always such a happy little bundle of sweetness.

Samuel James - Exploring and testing boundaries; this week I feel like I've had a bit of a breakthrough with Samuel. He has grown and changed and has big emotions that I didn't know what to do with, especially while learning how to do the newborn thing again. This week, I stumbled across some very helpful parenting advice that has helped me to keep my cool while Samuel loses his temper. I haven't quite mastered gentle parenting yet, but I'm feeling good about the steps I'm taking to be a better mum for him.
Matilda Grace - This girl is teaching me every day! She is bubbly and outgoing, happy from the moment her eyes open and more independent than I ever knew a baby could be. She is so much like her daddy, and I just love it! This week she mastered sitting from laying down and she was so proud of herself for doing it.
