how to beat the winter blahs...


at the miller house, bed jumping is definitely in order!!
Too cold to go outside, played with all of the toys 5 gazillion times... only one thing left to do, jump on mum & dad's bed!! This photo had me in hysterics!!! I'm a little horrified that Ian has his soother in his mouth. I only let him have it at bed time, and then it stays in his bed! But while we were upstairs he ran into his room and grabbed it and his blankie... sneaky little squirt! that things days are numbered!!!
So afterwards, of course Bree wanted to see, and then she wanted to try taking some photos of me too... now my camera is not light, with the battery pack and lens on it, it is a heavy piece of work!! but she managed to get some fun shots see below!
first off a lovely blurry photo of Ian and myself


then oh the dirty ceiling fan *note to self, clean ceiling fan!*
