It was a scorcher again today, and Elaine (my sister) came over for a swim…. sorry guys, no pics of her today… instead… photos of Connor doing exercises on his towel (he was being tutored by Elaine).
It didn’t take long before he found something that looked a lot more interesting…

so supple…what caught his eye to distract him
aww that first one is adorable!!
tee hee….. too cute.
So hard to imagine it HOT right now. fun!
Aww, so sweet!
I’m so looking forward to the warmer weather – Max will be toddling around by then too, much nicer to be out in!
Marylins last blog post..Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
That sure looks like fun….
Love the way he gently touches his toes….
and the little finger…
They have the cutest hands when they little hey!!!
It was minus 10 degrees here today, I did my abs workout on my bedroom floor!!!!!!
marcelles last blog post..My day!


Bradley got this Radio Controlled car for Christmas from his godfather 2 years ago, and he’s never really been interested in it, so it’s been gathering dust at the top of a bookcase (to keep it away from Connor). I took the boys to the shops this morning, and as I was getting batteries from...

oooh! Very great photographs! You’re talented!
Ashleys last blog post..DIY: Felt Board
He’s getting so tall too.
LOVE the pics! How awesome is it that your boy is rediscovering old toys right after Christmas? It’s funny…forget the Barbies and Leap Frog systems, My Little Ponies and Tinkerbells (the Christmas presents I’ve let them have so far), my girls currently love their old blocks. They sit and make “tall towers” for hours at a time.
Huckdolls last blog post..Pointy
He is now old enough to enjoy them now and will have loads of fun!! Make the most of every moment with the boys – they are precious!! (even though I miss them!)
lovely. Your photos always tell a story, and these are no exception.
Lovely captures!! I can remember my children doing the same thing with toys they had forgotten or that had been put away.
Kerris last blog post..Macro Monday – Dried Flower
Such concentration on his face…beautifully captured Jeanette.
marcelles last blog post..Day in Koln

I’m telling you, there’s nothing better than celebrating Christmas in the southern hemisphere where you can enjoy the hot weather with friends and family and spend your days in the pool (or at the beach but we’re never that lucky at Christmas time). Jealous yet?Here are the last photos of our Christmas… I promise
Licking...

2008 left me feeling a little like that last photo!
acidicices last blog post..Hello 2009
WOW! I have never seen or heard of a flame lily, but that is gorgeous. I adore lilies and I just had to show that to my husband
What a beautiful set of shots. I just love that you all were playing in the water during Christmas. What fun!
Momisodess last blog post..It Finally Happened. I Cracked.
They are all lovely Jeanette, I have some difficult bulbs here as well. They sulked for 10 years after I transplanted them.. *sigh* and only flowered last year.. I thought the wallabies had eaten them but no, they were just sulking.. xoxoxox Yay for Christmas in the pool.
frogpondsrocks last blog post..My imaginary friends…
as always, fantastic pics. I especially love the pool shots and the Groucho glasses!
Aah – they are all beautiful – as always! Love the one with Elaine and Jackie. Beautiful one of Bradley (for frame .. for me!??) Love Connor’s face in pool! Last one is precious – the ‘wild child’ sleeps!
Jeanette, your Christmas looks nice and warm! Great photo of the sunflower, your beautiful son….and all of them really! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all!
Tinas last blog post..Merry Christmas
Just a social call… I didn’t play this week…
Lovely photos as always!
Wonderful and warm holiday pics, I love it! I really love the sunflower and that last one of Connor is soooo cute! And Bradley is SUCH a beautiful boy.
Karins last blog post..Weekly Winners: 21 – 27 December
Ah, such perfect shots, all! I definitely could enjoy Christmas where it’s warm. Yep.
Maggie’s Minds last blog post..Weekly Winners 12/28/08
Oh, Jenty, they are all so lively and wonderful. That last one is the epitome of toddlerhood!
I love the shark thing — it’s very cute! The flame lily is gorgeous. It’s very strange to see photos of people in pools and flowers and all when we have a couple feet of snow and it’s 3 degrees out!
julies last blog post..Weekly Winners!
Hello again…
thanks for visit and comment
NO I dont have photoshop…
I must admite I struggled as didnt use a flash and it was not a very sunny day…had her close to the window for light.
marcelles last blog post..Photo’s of Zet (taken on Xmas day )
What Christmas does to toddlers? Shoot that was me after it was all over!
My brother and I used to do that whole shark in the water thing, too. That photo brought back a ton of memories of spending hours in the pool together.
Huckdolls last blog post..So Much
These are all gorgeous. But that last one, well it speaks for itself! Just perfect!
I have to say it’s kinda strange to see kids in the pool at Christmas! : )
Merry Holidays!
Elaines last blog post..Weekly Winners – 12/28 – The Year in Review
They are all lovely photo’s Jeanette and each one tells a story. I especially like the sunflower pic and the one of Bradley *my beautiful child*
Stunning
gorgeous once again . . . . I should take a photo of all the puddles of ice around here!! 50 inches of rain this month!
If you could see my face right now, it’s yellow and green (it depends on the language) of jalousie !! I think I am born on the wrong side of the world !
All such beautiful photos. I love the funny glasses.
Secret Mom Thoughtss last blog post..Weekly Winners-Holiday Lights
I love the last one. Mine looked about the same around 11 Christmas morning. It was present overload.
Wonderful shots this week.
Lisas last blog post..Yep…once again, it’s all my fault
Yes!!
You did make me jealous!And not only because of the pool and the sunflower and the good weather!
But because each and every one of those pictures is a winner!! Wonderful!
I hope you have a nice Sunday Jeanette!
Jientjes last blog post..Weekly Winners, It’s all about Christmas this Week …

Stunning as always. I love ‘my beautiful child’ no truer words were spoken.
tiffs last blog post..Weekly Winners – Christmas special.

I am envious of all your great outdoor shots these days…I’m stuck inside. ho hummmmm…
What a great set! My faves are: Cutie Connor; what beautiful eyes~My beautiful child~Sunflower~& LOL @ the last one’s caption; the pic is precious though; there’s nothing like a sleeping child!
Connies last blog post..Weekly Winners=December 21-27 2008
I’m jealous…but saying that I have over the last 4 years chosen to stay here for xmas as the atmosphere is like nothing I’ve experienced back home at Xmas time…its family I miss at this time.
Photo’s are amazing, each one tells a story – the flower is very special as well..
Thanks for sharing.
marcelles last blog post..Frankfurt Zoo….on boxing day
Oh man Jeanette these are lovely!

Lauras last blog post..Weekly Winners


Sarah is in South Africa at the moment, and thankfully we managed to see her and the kids today before they jet back to Uganda. The original plans were to meet up at Lemon Rose Farm, but we thought that it would be closed this weekend; so I invited everyone to our house for a...

For the short while I was there it was really a lovely morning Jeanette. Thanks so much for having us
Looking at these photos makes me miss South Africa this time of year…everyone is enjoying the sunshine and pools…lovely photo’s.

marcelles last blog post..Frankfurt Zoo….on boxing day
They’re all great shots but that last one is so so adorable! Love it. As usual, I’m so envious of the pool weather…but I love coming here and feeling the warmth through your pics
