How do you manage the kids time on devices? For me, its a love/hate relationship. I love the ipads because it keeps them quiet, and lets me get some work done. But there are a whole variety of reasons why too much is NOT a good thing for my two. Lately, I'd been saying "yes" a bit too often, and the devices have started to take over - hours and hours of staring at screens. And then the daily requests (sometimes hourly with Master 9!) to have them again, it almost becomes an obsession and just about all they think about. So this last month, we've pulled back. They've gone whole weeks AND sometimes whole weekends without them, or very limited time on them. Yes we get some moaning, but after the initial half hour of being bored and grumpy, suddenly they find stuff to do. They've created LEGO towns, spent hours on the trampoline having fun together, done some cool drawings or read a book, or baked some brownies. Last weekend they came to me with some old mismatched socks and googly eyes, asking if they could make sock puppets! So my goal is to continue to say "no" more often, and encourage their imaginations to go wild. What do you do, to manage the kids time on their devices? This week's blog post features adorable baby girl Lyrik! Lyrik's beautiful mum Hailey loves florals, so Lyrik wore one of my cute little lace floral rompers. It was lovely to capture some gorgeous sibling images with big sister Islah too, both girls were amazing and did everything I asked, and more! Thank you so much Hailey and Cameron, I loved meeting your gorgeous family and capturing these memories for you! Here are some favourites from the session: If you enjoyed this, you might also like:

Its been a while since I've updated about our house renovations! Anyone who has been to our place at Tamborine lately will have seen the huge amount of work going on. My hardworking hubby is tirelessly working towards finishing this extension/renovation - and we are getting closer! The most recent "big" event was the installation of our timber floors. Deciding on the actual species of timber was a task in itself, with our original choices not working out and the colours not looking right in our home. We eventually went with Queensland Spotted Gum - rich caramels, reds, blondes and browns give it a real warmth and we are so happy with it. He has also top nailed these, so they look a bit more "old school" and rustic. Here's some photos of how its coming along - next up is wardrobes, carpet, tiles and kitchen... still so much to do! I recently had the pleasure of capturing this gorgeous family for the second time - and this event was the arrival of their beautiful baby girl, Andi! Check out the proud smiles on her doting big brothers - so adorable! Rose golds and dusty pinks made this a beautifully soft and feminine session - perfect for a sweet little princess. Little miss Andi also gave us a few gorgeous wide awake moments and a few big yawns before drifting off to sleep for the rest of her session. Thank you Jianli and Simon for asking me to capture these precious memories for you! If you enjoyed this, you might also like:
