This every day love

The pictures are some that I have taken over the past week. I love trying to take pictures of Daniel doing what he does throughout the day however it does prove to be difficult as he does not like to sit for pictures anymore (he wants to take the pictures). 

Luke wanted to use the picture of me playing the Wii to make fun of me on facebook however Daniel does love to 'play' the Wii. The reason that I say 'play' is because there are no batteries in the remote Daniel uses however he is happy to believe he is playing.

Abby is now having her bath with Daniel and she loves it. She is very happy to sit in her seat in the bath and watch Daniel play around her. After the bath she gets no nappy time which she finds very relaxing before being fed and going to bed. The biggest news about Abby this week is that she have started laughing, I love this milestone because it means she can express the happiness her feels when I or Luke smile at her. 

My Mum had to go back to work this week after taking the past year off to watch Daniel while I went to work part time. Although it has only been a week she already misses Daniel. Daniel adores his Granny and gets so excited when she comes and see him (and Abby).

Well there is a taster of our normal life, I only wish that pictures could show the laughter that goes on in our house every day.

Daniel

This week Daniel said his first sentence which is "what's that". He wants to know what everything is and therefore will spend all day asking me 'what's that". We are very proud of our little man.

Busy Busy

So the last few weeks have been very busy in the Brewer house. We have finally sold our house and moved out. We are now living in a town called Kirkcaldy (Luke and I lived there when we were first married). The house is lovely and the neighbourhood is great. 

We have also been busy with birthdays and anniversaries. My sister and her husband just celebrated their first wedding anniversary (18th July) and Luke and I also celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary (30th July). My dad celebrated his birthday and this Thursday it is my birthday. 

The rest of the clan are doing well. Luke is glad to be in the new house because his wife is a lot less stressed. I have to say that Luke has made this move much easier on the family. He did most of the packing and unpacking so that I did not have to do it. This means that he is behind in his studies so please keep him in your thoughts as he tries to get back to his studies.

Daniel is amazing, he is now 18 months and every day is an adventure for him. We try and get out for a walk each day which he loves. He gets so excited about the smallest things. He is also talking alot more. Here are some of his favourite words

Car - (he loves pointing out every car he sees)

Truck - (he is a typical boy)

This - (he uses this as a way of showing what he wants)

Duck - (this is Luke's favourite bird and was therefore one of the first words Daniel said)

Mama - (mainly uses this one when he is hungry - he thinks only mama can feed him) 

Dada - (the first official word Daniel used)

Pleeth - (this is Daniel saying please)

Yeah yeah yeah - (he says this when he is excited about something or when he has done something good. This is normally said with both hands in the air)

Luke also wanted me to tell everyone that Daniel can now 'high five' however still is not fond of ice cream.

Abigael is beautiful, she has the cutest little smile. When we see people they normally have one of two things to say about her, 1) she looks just like Daniel or 2) look at all that amazing hair. She is very different from Daniel, she loves to have a bath (Daniel hated them at her age), she loves to sit up high in her chair and she also enjoys just siting with you. My favourite thing about her is that she is a Mummy's girl. Daniel was always and still is a Daddy's boy so it is nice to have Abigael need me to calm her down. I know that in a few months time, she will only have eyes for Luke, so I am enjoying this while it lasts.

Finally me, I am doing ok. I am sleeping a lot better now that we have moved and I am enjoying taking Daniel and Abigael exploring while Luke is at work. I am really looking forward to my birthday (I love birthdays) and the coming months when Abigael will start to interact more and how Daniel will deal with that.

I love black and white

The past few weeks I have been trying to take more pictures, I really enjoying it. Well after trying lots of functions on my camera, I have decided that black and white is my favourite. I just love the details. Here are just a few of my collection.
