I know I shouldn’t have favourites but it is not every day I get to photograph twins. I love twins !! It is so special watching them grow.

I know you shouldn’t compare them and you should treat them as individuals but you can’t help it. You compare which one rolls, which one sits longer, which one talks more, which one is more social, which one is more of a Mum’s girl. It is just natural and we all do it I think. I find all these things interesting as it really shows their personalities and the differences between them. I like to work out their little personalities.

These twins are so so gorgeous that I can’t help but cluck over both of them. I love getting cuddles while Mum changes outfits. I always make sure I split my time evenly as I am obsessed about ensuring they both get my attention. I just love these two girls and after every shoot I have with them, I am always smiling from ear to ear.

A quick shot with the very proud big brother:

There has been a big gap in the blog and I do apologise. The family and work mix sometimes doesn’t allow for enough time. Last week I had a family illness which most of my time was spent on the road between here and Port Macquarie. Consequently the blog came last, but things are all back to normal from now.

The Koolest Kid comp winner will be announced later today. There are a heap of votes to finish counting today, so later this afternoon all will be revealed.

Todays blog post is of little Riley. This gorgeous little guy is a handsome one year old. The joy in watching a toddler explore the world is amazing. It also shows me how fast time has gone.  Do the blog followers remember this blog post, I remember that night like it was yesterday. It was the night I was at the hospital the exact time I gave birth to my son, just 4 years later. It is very memorable.

I can remember when my kids were babies and the nights I sat there wondering how to get this child to sleep. All I wanted was to sleep and nothing I tried would work. My son was a shocking sleeper. At the age of 2 I was still getting up to him 2-3 nights a week. I have learnt that there is a light at the end of the tunnel when you struggle to see it. For those Mums who have a terrible night sleeper, as I watch my 5 year old run around I now know that it gets easier. I now have a full nights sleep virtually every night, bad dreams and illness aside.

So where is this blog post going I hear you wonder? Just a reflection on how time really does fly. How the baby stages pass so fast. Maybe one Mum will read this if she had a horrible night last night and know that it does get easier and someone understands. It also makes me stop and listen to the sounds of the kids yabbering away in some pretend game they are playing right now. Babies and kids are so amazing !!
