Weekly Winners.
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?
Happy Birthday Mum.
There was family…
and friends…
drinking (cheap drunks)…
frivolity…
flowers?
Yes, flowers. The first of my birthday plantings has bloomed…
Plenty of hugs to go around…
easy conversations…
Bright colours of toddlerhood…
Post nap bedhead…
even a dinner show!
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).
beautiful pics as usual! Poor little Noah, he looks so sorry for himself in that last pic.
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!
I hope he feels better soon!
Looks like it was a great day. Happy Belated B-Day!!
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
Looks like everyone had a fun day. The photos are great as always. I love the black and white shots. Hope you and Noah are better very soon.
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!
Looks like lots and lots of fun and love and busy times. Great shots!
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.
Lovely pictures! It’s clear that you guys had a great birthday celebration.
Have a great day, and thanks for dropping by!

This looks like one great party! Congrats to your teenage mom!
Feel better soon!
xox
Oh absolutely brilliant photos Tiff.
I think you take wonderful photos..
poor Noah he looks really unwell..
(((HUGS))) kim
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.
My Little Drummer boys
Wow, you have some amazing shots here! I love them all.
Especially the bright colors of toddlerhood and the reflection shots.
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.
Bright colors of childhood–that one rocks! I love your rich colors.
They’re all great shots
You take the most amazing pictures…all of them. My favorites are your people pictures–they have great character and expression. I am in awe.
Beautiful photos! I love the “toddlers and teenagers” one, especially. Great colors (and great b&w!) Must have been a fun party.
That is such a beautiful series from the birthday party - wonderful candid shots!! I think I love the one of the friends the best…
I can’t get over those crazy curls, hw adorable! Such a beautiful family.
Oh wow, I absolutely love the party photos. Especially the friends shot, it says so much! And what a lovely butterfly to end with.
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!
Woman with a Hatchet
Really great — some of the facial expressions you’ve captured are priceless!
Your photos are so lovely - they really tell the story of family togetherness and love.
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!
Beautiful shots! Look at those wonderful curls.
What a fantastic week of shots! I love the mixture of black and white with the color. Thanks for visiting my winners.
Those black and whites are awesome.
