This may be hard to believe, but I was very close to not taking my camera at all, to my recent trip to Brisbane. In fact, until 5 minutes before I was leaving for the airport, I didn’t have it in my bag at all. It was sitting on the table staring at me. I even tweeted about not taking it, and how empowered that felt. WOW. I was going to have 6 days of no camera. A minute after feeling empowered, I felt lost, so in went the camera and ONE lens. MINIMAL.
Why wasn’t I going to take the camera? The foot. Well of course, I’m glad I did, but still think it’s rather amusing that darling Finn was very similar to my own two boys. Full of smiles until I bring out the big black camera. Then the smiles will suddenly disappear. (unless I’m using the IPhone camera, or the compact snap camera)
But Finn was rather serious while I was there. There were other things to concentrate on, like his Christening, teething, catching his toes & wind pain. Yep the poor little man had some pretty nasty bouts of it. But still, he’s adorable is he not??
Here are a few images of the 4 month old






Yes there are more to come
hehe
































(Just on a side note, the last image in this post was performed with extreme care, at all times he was supported. I take safety very seriously and never place a gorgeous newborn in danger, even for a split second.)
































I hope you had a wonderfully relaxing time away. These photos are gorgeous, so glad you took your camera!
So glad you took your camera. These images are just stunning. That last one makes me want to just grab him up for a cuddle, he’s so adorable.
But glad you had a little get-away too
