26. Breather (Rubbish day weatherwise and I was nervous about dental surgery the next day so the boys burnt off some energy in the local version of softplay hell! I tried to get the perfect ball-pit photograph, yet 140 photos later it was this one which appealed to me.)
27. Pitter-patter (New photographic challenge: trying to capture raindrops falling, I haven't managed it this time but the patio reflected my mood – flooded. Having had the first bit of dental surgery on Friday (to correct various screw-ups which have plagued my mouth for around three years), my mouth was aching a lot. Just another droplet in the puddle of bad dentistry I've suffered.)
28. Mummy (The Boy has been enjoying drawing pictures on the easel since we brought it back downstairs last week, today was a picture of mummy. I had two belly buttons though. Either that or he'd drawn my nipples down by my waist, not that far off then!)
29. Book worm (Snuggled down on a cushion, The Boy started exploring his own reading books nestled in his new Tidy Books book caddy – competition to follow this week.)
30. Squint (I struggled with the whole damn project today and desperately wanted to just stop. However, the good folk of the 365 Facebook group buoyed me back up again and this is my scrumpybum boy after his bath. This is the day I realised he really needed his hair cut.)
31. 恭禧發財 (Bring on the year of the horse.)
32. Fresh (No editing, just my beautiful boy enjoying a gale force wind on the beach.)

Cathy Glynn says
I love the photo of the Boy with the hat on, he is stunning x x
Jen @mymummyspennies says
Gorgeous photos as always, I love the wind in his fur and the smile on the last one!
Emma The Mini Mes and Me says
A lovely varied collection. The puddle shot certainly sums up the entire weeks weather as does the windy hat pic!
Love the pic of his feet in the ball pit, taking a rest for 2 secs before running again I imagine! x

Love Chinese New Year and this was the first year of doing itv properly at work – good old Reception! Love the rain pic, rather tranquil although the rain is tedious now.
Emma @Tales of a Greenwood says
Hope you got your dental work sorted. I love the Chinese New Year picture and the windswept beach picture, lovely
ClearlyBex says
Loving all your photo's from the week hun, I hope your mouth is ok and all the dental work is over swiftly xx
Joanne Blunt says
I'm so sorry to hear about your dentistry. I have suffered a fair bit in the past as you know, so I have an idea of how you feel. I'm amazed that you've got this far before having a day of struggling with the project. You do a fantastic job of keeping the linky going for the rest of us, as well as commenting and doing your own fabulous 365. I adore the last photo of The Boy. So natural and he looks so happy.
brinabird and son says
Well dental surgery sounds like it was pretty crap…glad you were cheered up a bit to take such a fantastic photo…shows your natural skill hon! We are getting the wee man an easel for his birthday and I really hope he likes it. That first photo is a gem and I can see why you chose it…captures the soft play chaos well.
Charly Dove says
I hope you're feeling better, what a week! Absolutely love that last photo of The Boy on the beach and the bath one is adorable. Like you I'm desperate to get raindrops falling into a puddle – ideally forming a perfect circle! Aim high 🙂
over40andamumofone says
I love that soft play photo! Hope yuo get your teeth sorted out for good.
Stacey G @ Nobody Said It Was Easy says
Love the ball pit photo! And I hope you're feeling better x
Me and the tiny three says
These are fantastic photos. I love the soft play photo, I think it shows how much fun he is having. I love the photo with the boy squinting he looks so cute
jenny paulin says

Notmyyearoff says
The very warm looking hat is lovely. Z had one like that but he's grown out of it now. Very nice pic!
amanda walsh says
Love the chinese lantern and the wind swept last photo, very cheeky grin
Fivegoblogging says
I know you've had a tough week but you would never guess given your lovely photos. Love the wind swept beach look. It may have been gale force but he's still smiling 🙂
Angela C says
Your last photo is beautiful. Hope you are on the mend, my friend had surgery on her wisdom teeth this past month and lost a ton of weight, we jokingly call it her dentist diet lol
Mummy Whiskers says
Great photos, glad to see you didn't give up. Hope the pain has eased up now after the dentist trip
Jen Palmer says
Such cute photos of the boy x
kateonthinice says
I love the first one although I hate those places with a passion.
My favourite is definitely the last one – what a stunningly beautiful boy you have.
Rain is so difficult to capture I find – have tried so many times.
Karen says
The first and last are my faves. That final one is gorgeous!
Sarah MumofThree World says
Lovely photos as every. Especially love the photo straight from the bath 🙂
CaroleHeidi says
I LOVE the softplay shot so much 🙂
Jaime Oliver says

Jo @ 3 Kids and a Gluestick says
I love the Chinese lantern photo and the last one on the beach. Hope your mouth is feeling better x
Jo Laybourn says
Love the Pitter Patter photo! Sorry to hear you've had so much trouble with your teeth! Ouch!
Emmys Mummy says
I'm absolutely loving the puddle shot.
Something I'm unable to capture on my phone camera and it sums up the blooming horrid week for me too.
Here's hoping your almost pain free and it will and the next lot of treatment is the last for a very long time
Honey Mommy says
I love your ball pit photo. I know what you mean about taking a ton of pictures and only getting a few that you like! Some days are like that.
I really enjoyed your rain picture as well. I love all the little circles where the rain had fallen.
Helen Wills says
Ooh I'm inspired to try your raindrop challenge now! Got to be something good in all this terrible weather, no?
Kriss MacDonald says
Wonderful photos despite suffering from your dental visit. Love the wind in the face, the squint, the feet in the ballpit…actually all of them.
Susan says
I agree that angle in the ball pit is awesome. I've also totally failed in the raindrop challenge but I refuse to give up. That beach does look (fresh) and the boy looks lovely
Coombemill says
Love the last photo, you can almost feel the wind. Stunning
Sara (@mumturnedmom) says
That last photo is just gorgeous, love the windswept hat and hair and the big grin xx
Elaine Livingstone says
I have visions of everybody sitting in waterproof clothing in the peeing rain for the next week trying to capture a rain drop in a puddle.
The Boy on the beach is a great picture.
I think reading is an amazing skill and one to be nurtured, I always felt so proud when they went off and took a real interest in reading books themselves, sadly another step on the way to maturity.
Kelly Wiffin says
Fantastic photos, I love the last photo especially!
Kara says
Adore the picture of him on the beach – what happened to the photo of the pain killers lol
The Reading Residence says
Love that first shot! And the raindrops are very pretty.
Luci - Mother.Wife.Me says
Love that top shot, the colours and the composition
spicers1976 says
Great chinese lantern
Rachael says
Haha, your soft play one is perfect!
Also loving your raindrop shot, it may not be what you were going for but I think it's great!
Another lovely set of pictures – I'm glad you didn't give up 🙂 x
Mandi says
So glad you didn't stop! Hope your mouth is recovering, i LOVE the play area pic xx
welshmumof3boys says
I love the beach shot and the raindrops, great captures 🙂 I hope you've recovered from the dentist ordeal x
Nikki Thomas says
Such beautiful photos again. That first photo is funny but I love the towel photo, he looks so sweet. Nice to see that you have managed to get out and about in spite of the incessant rain.
Kirsty - Hijacked by Twins says
Lovely photos! I love the picture at the softplay area!
Kelly says
A gorgeous set of photos. The raindrop one would have summed up our week well! Roll on Spring. Hope you are recovering from your dental treatment now, poor you!
Susan Mann says
Love these photos. The top one is my favourite & the beach one x
Michelle Twin Mum says
Fabulous, they just capture his little personality. That cheeky last shot is awesome. Mich x
Carolynne says
Lovely photos. I like the one of your boy at the easel about to write or draw. A little left handed boy? It's only my second week linking up and I found it a definite challenge to take a picture every day. Fun though, I'm going to keep trying 🙂 xx
Su Tyler says
What an up and down week you had. Hope your mouth is healing as it should now.
I saw your tweet – enticing us to see what you looked like – I fell for it too!!
So sorry your Mojo upped and left this week, although sad it's also good to know that our esteemed leader also hits the skids at times 🙂
I felt much the same this week, bored with home pictures, bored with wet hedgerows, unable to find any impetus to continue. But I'm determined to stick at it. 🙂
The picture of The Boy with his deerstalker hat is my favourite this week.
Foz says
Absolutely adore that final picture….looks so cute and love the hat!
Im beginning to already struggle to take a pic a day!!
OneDad3Girls says
Fed up of the naff weather.
The final picture is so perfect and so natural. I also adore the photo of him and monkey reading. The girls will often be found in their book corner reading.
