37/52

Okay so I had planned to join in with Jodi's 52 project every week this year but, well, life got in the way.. So here is my second set of photos. Hopefully I'll be able to join in a bit more regularly from now on.

Sophie: Playing with her cousin Ella who is a few months younger than her.. these two are going to have so much fun growing up together!

Henry: Such a little cutie.. growing up so fast!

Life lately

Such a lovely few weeks.. Henry is finally starting to sleep a bit better at night, we had a lovely party for his first birthday last weekend and the days are getting warmer and longer..

Photos are all via Instagram. You can follow me @grow_cook_sew

One!

Henry turned one on Sunday. ONE! I think I can say without a doubt that was the fastest year of my life. I feel like it was just born yesterday and here we are celebrating 365 days of Henry being here in the world!

Although the year has flown, it feels like a lifetime ago that I was lying in bed praying (as much as an atheist can pray) that this little boy would be born safely. Most people can't believe that I spent most of the pregnancy lying flat on my back in bed but I think we would do it again in a heartbeat..
It was a small sacrifice to get a beautiful, healthy baby boy in the end and I try to remind myself every day how lucky we are to have him here.

Happy birthday cheeky monkey. You are one awesome little man and we love you so!
