Going Batty for Halloween
The baby bat
Screamed out in fright,
"Turn on the dark,
I'm afraid of the light."
Back in 2012 when Squish had just started at nursery school, there was a dress-up day. All the other children arrived dressed like butterflies, fairies, tigers & firemen, but for some reason I had the urge to make a bat costume.
She looked super cute!
The bat top then came in handy the following Halloween, & when her little best friend saw it, she wanted one too, so I whipped another black-winged top up immediately.
They love them, to the extent that they are often worn to parties, for baking or just a trip to the shops. And because they are made from stretchy jersey fabric, they are super practical & still fit 2 years later!
And then I noticed during one of my IG surfs that BangBang Copenhagen (a seriously amazing & creative Danish brand that I frequently droll over) had included a similar item in their 2014 collection in the form of a hoodie - I was obviously on to a good thing!!
And with that, I decided to expand the bat love beyond Lula & her friends and give other aspiring bats to have one of these cool outfits.
Fun. Creative. Comfortable.

Emily ♥
When Sue told us over lunch that she was pregnant, it was the best news EVER. There were tears of joy & all sorts of loud cheers & woop woops ringing around the Turkish cafe we had met at.
Emily is truly precious in every possible way & chose incredible parents to journey through life with.
Our morning photo shoot turned in to a spontaneous lunch, some Ukulele lessons for Squish & a blustery afternoon walk to the beachfront with their family dog Kai.
Thanks so much for sharing this special day with us Brad & Sue.
It was a near impossible task to choose just a few pics of this little angel, but here we go

Baby Ben
With the soft sun shining through Venetian blinds & the distant sound of the sea, Kerry & Rich's cliff-side home is the most perfect & tranquil spot for a new baby to start life in. And big sister Betty is always near, checking that none of the fluffy lambs cause trouble!
It felt like we were on holiday when we visited baby Ben to take some pics & we could have stayed all day in this relaxing home (although he was probably much relieved to have some peace after we had swaddled, lifted, soothed & positioned him all morning)
Here's a snippet of some of those special moments of him snoozing & wriggling with his proud parents.

Those tiny features of a new born baby never lose their magic
Retro toys from Kerry's childhood, along with Bens growing lamb collection & art from overseas make the sweetest nursery
(and spot the Moon Mobile!)
Love & happiness to your beautiful family xxx
