It’s that time of the week again.

Go on over to Lotus’ blog for lots of gorgeous photos.

Our days have been so hot lately, we have been holed up inside for most of the week…

Summer sunrise

Little fish.

Peek - a - boo.

A typical day’s line up.

Mrs potato head. (Grainy, I know, sorry, taken inside, without a flash, on 1600 iso)

Then yesterday afternoon we escaped to the beach.

Sorry there are so many photos. It was hard to choose my favourites.

Waterplay

Time with Dad.

Building and bonding.

A wall of defence.

Sunshine and salt…

and seaspray!

Love on the rocks.

Jump!

I love this photo! I was trying to get his shot but he kept moving. I bribed him with a milkshake. He loves milshakes and will do just about anything for one. This was the cheesiest smile he could muster.

Beach milkshake. Aaaaahhhhhh!

The lone castle builder.

Ivy will pass on the whole water experience and opt for the sand castle designing any day.

“Baby castle”.

Beach beauty.

Human nature.

Sandy toes.

We stayed until sunset. It was so beautiful and the lighting was so amazing.

Magical.

Twighlight.

The paed has been saying lately that he thinks Ivy’s eyes are turning green… he might be right.

Sunset Lily.

Can’t get enough of this little guy.

I’ve saved my favourite two for last.

A quiet moment.

At about 8, the wind whipped up and so we walked to the top of the hill to watch the sun go down before we left.

Beach sunset.
