Weekly Winners is here again. Proudly brought to you by Sarcastic Mom.

It has been a busy week of doctor’s appointments here and I didn’t think it would be good karma to take my camera along with me. They might have thought me some kind of crazy woman.

Oh wait.

They already do.

The weekend was Mum’s 60th birthday bash, so the focus is on that one day, really.

Boys, girls and toddlers play here.

Who thought it would be fun to have teenagers and toddlers at the same time?

When every one had gone home there were a few games of Guess Who?

Noah kind of lost it though when it wasn’t who he thought it was…

Oh dear.

After that there was time for quiet reflection (and time out for cranky boys)…

and a butterfly to signal the change of season.

Seems this morning, after months and months of keeping good health, Noah has earned himself a sick day.

He has tonsilitis.

Awwwww. My poor little man.

(Just quietly - I think I’ve earned myself one too but shhh, don’t tell because Mummy’s aren’t allowed to get sick).

Hope you’re both feeling better soon!

Beautiful photos to summarize your week, Tiff! Sorry you had so many doctor appointments, and soooo sorry about poor little Noah being under the weather. Hope he’s feeling better real soon!

God these are just so bloody magic, you take great shots AND make a great photo set which is hard to do together.

I LOVE the two quiet reflection shots.

Poor Noah lol…

Lovely photos as always, thanks for sharing :)
Looks like a grand time was had by all!
Poor Noah, he looks all wrung out…probably a little bit like you’re feeling after your busy week.
Put your feet up ( if you can!) and have a bludge day with the little man ;)

Wonderful family photos…I love the series of Noah (I didn’t have to deal with the crankiness, I know!) Wonderful photos as always!

I read about your busy week…I hope this is the start of much better things for Ivy (and for you!), and I hope you all are feeling better very soon!

Someone told me that same story….teen and toddler being fun. Most of the time it’s true, but sometimes…….grrrrrrrr

Love that butterfly…even though it looks like it eats small mammals.

Tiff - I really like the photos on your blog. Black and white is great for photos of people.

Beautiful ? all these photos Tiff - the children are all so natural and photogenic.
Ivy’s bed head curls and colours of toddlerhood are my favourite.
Poor little No no - give him a cuddle from me.

thanks for visiting me and of course the little girl you asked about - she is the fairest princess in the toddlerville.

I absolutely LOVE your photography! The ones of the family are especially touching.

Poor Noah. I suffered from Tonsillitis all the time as a child. No fun. :( :(

Poor baby! Hope he feels better soon.

And I just wanted to add that your family shots are really wonderful. I think your family will be happy to have them. They say so much.

Isn’t it amazing how kids get a “sick” look when they’re ill? Noah looks completely miserable in the last photo…poor baby!

The picture of him mad at Guess Who is priceless…And Ivy’s hair (as always) is just delicious. My dad has kinky-curly hair and I’m always drawn to hair like that. Besides being adorable, it makes for some kick-butt pictures!!!

I like Friends, Hugs and Easy Conversations best. I love the backlighting and the intimacy of the moments you caught. Excellent!

Are you kidding? Your photos are great! I love the laughter of your little one in the 2nd photo. Great photos!

side note - what is the plug-in that you are using to track the number comments that a poster has done on your site? That’s cool! and to edit their comment! Wow!
