365-119 to 365-125 A Week in Pictures

I must admit that in the normal day to day of life I am finding it hard to take photos every day. I don’t mean it as a grind – life is beautiful and full of precious moments. I look up and see my little girl smiling at me, I see her taking her first tentative steps, I am enveloped by my husbands love and blessed beyond measure by my family and friends, but these are not photographic moments. They are just moments in my life which make it beautiful. Sadly, I only have two photo days for you from this week, but I hope you enjoy them none the less. I should be back in full swing again next week!

Day 119 – Day trip to Birmingham

I must admit that I have always had a rather Dickensian view of Birmingham (Did he ever write about Birmingham?). I’ve always seen it as an industrial city and imagined it as as gray and dull. I went to visit my friend Gayle, (who blogs at Bumbling Along) and discovered how terribly wrong I was. I found it a beautiful city, full of flowers and history and very deserving of the title as Britain’s most cultural city.

Day 120 – Smoked Salmon Bagel

I do so love Baby Led Weaning. Ameli’s favourite thing at the moment seems to be smoked salmon. She will literally pull my mouth open to get at smoked salmon when I eat it. Here she is eating a smoked salmon bagel.
