Thank you for your sweet comments on my last few baby-sewing posts! Unfortunately, I haven't yet got a snap of my big and little boys in their matching bow-ties, but I'm working on it..... ;-)
I'd LOVE to share some photos of Bo with you today, though!
Inspired by Pinterest (as ever), I decided that I wanted to take a special photo of Bo, every month, to record how he grows and changes. I saw some examples where people had used chalkboard walls as backdrops, and written about their babies' monthly milestones on them. I thought that was a brilliant idea!
Simon had been talking about painting a blackboard wall for a while. He wanted it for writing food-ideas and notes on. With a bit of nagging from me, he got around to it just in time for Bo's 1-month birthday!
I tried writing on the wall with chalk. In 'real life', it looked good and really clear. But, on the photos, it didn't look so great. So I cheated and did the writing during the photo-editing stage!
So, here are Bo's monthly photos numbers 1 to 3:
I know I'm TOTALLY biased..... But isn't he scrumptious?!?
Time has just FLOWN by!!! It seems like no time at all since we were bringing a tiny little newborn home - and yet he'll be 16 WEEKS on Sunday (photo shoot time again)!!!
See you around the blogosphere.....
Hugs,
Carly
