Little Moments

Max had 2 Month Immunisations today - yes we decided to give them to him. Little thing screamed his lungs out and his face went red. Not surprising since that's exactly how he dealt with his last stressful situation - birth. So I pampered him today. Not much routine, lots of cuddles and milk time  where I actually let him feed-to-sleep. This was a moment where I put him down to sleep. Thank goodness for that little ducky who worked wonders on Max during and after the needles. Can you believe he's been smiling since? Let's hope it stays that way!

Mum's original jacket - now vintage of course.

that's my dog! and my old place...such a long time ago

Vintage Dress from 'Grandma takes a trip' Surry hills, Sydney. Worn to my wedding.

take note: Victoria Room = high tea, vintage decor and a bar. Really.

Yep, she's my sister. Here's the 3 of us... yes I have the least make up on...  but we're focussing on lisa here so look to the right.

A haircut, a pretty dress, good food and My BABY!

 Ok so tell me what you think of my new haircut - like? Should I grow it into a side-fringe as it always seems to want to do with my cow-lick, or keep it trimmed as above?

And now another installment of Steph's Dress: 

 Loving it! Why is it that some people just "get"the beauty in vintage, and others just miss the point? Well Steph and I love it. Do you?

Rie and Tom's Soup - YUM It was so good I had to share!

MAX!

Ending with my lovely baby Maxwell (Max). He's eyes are still ever so blue, his smile get larger and cheekier everyday. He's 2months old now but seems much older!

Delphiniums

I bought a bunch of Delphiniums this week so that I could take photo's of them for my art.

I have been so utterly charmed and delighted by them!

Is it normal to derive so much pleasure from flowers? I don't know.. sometimes I think it's a addiction I have.

Anyway here are a few of my snaps..

Brightening my bathroom...

and keeping me company while I painted today....

Here's me in one of my fave dresses which I have added to this post

as the colours now remind me of Delphiniums.

I can't wait to start painting them but I have 3 other paintings I must finish first :-/

Nevermind. I'm thinking I may even do one for my very own (imagine that) to hang above our bed.

Hope you all had a lovely weekend ~E xo

Latest charcoal drawing

Finished this one a moment ago and will be exhibiting her at Stirling fine arts in November.

Two down, two to go! :) ~E xo

Babies, bonnets and bibs

I just listed these items on Etsy and had to share them with you because they are just too precious.

Antique crochet babies bib. Highly impractical if you ask me but oh so pretty!

Adorable little hat which makes me think of toy sailing boats.

And lastly this sweet little crochet bonnet which makes me think of how soft the top of babies heads are.

Love ~E xo
