As I said, we went round to Iain and Louise's this afternoon for coffee - Mum and Dad, Kay, Theresa, Tyler and Alyssa were also there. Nice to just sit and chat. 
Emily with her cousin, Faith (Iain & Louise's daughter - who I've just realised will be 17 next month!!)
I love this photo of Mum (well her hand anyway) and Alyssa. Look at how little Alyssa's hand is against Mum's finger! Too cute
Great Grandma (Mum) and Alyssa
Jon taking the opportunity to talk to Alyssa while she's looking his way ;)
The catepillar cake is a favourite in our family :)
Tyler was quite funny today; he kept his jacket and his wellies on the whole time we were there. Would not take them off! Maybe he wanted to know he would be going home again? Who knows. We just know he was happier keeping them on. His foot is a little bit better but if he does too much on it he tells Theresa (his Mum) that his foot is tired and he needs to rest. He goes back to hospital tomorrow afternoon for a check up (on his birthday!).
Final photo of Alyssa and Theresa/mummy. She was so good and got passed around the room without any complaint until she was ready for her bottle. I'm going to have her again tomorrow while Kay, Theresa and Tyler go to the hospital :)

Now, before I go any further, if anyone out there can offer some help or an explanation, I would be most grateful. Please note in the next two photos how the candles are "reflected" again in the photo. The first one I thought was because Iain was wearing his glasses but the second one? How do you explain that and why has it happened? I was using my Canon 50mm 1.8 lens, does that have anything to do with it? I have noticed it once before with the Christmas tree lights but didn't think about it too much but in these photos it's more obvious. Any advice anyone?

PS. The snow has stopped and we've had a bit of rain so hopefully that's it for now! Still a bit lying on the ground but with luck that will be gone tomorrow too!
Thank you Rhona, the photographs are lovely, lets me see Alyssa from the front for when I am holding her it's the top of her head I see.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely afternoon with the family for Iain's birthday.
Thanks too to Louise and Iain for the coffee and yummy cake. xxx
I use my 50mm/1.4 all the time. I've never seen that happen. I'll be back to check the comments to see if anyone else can explain it. Lovely family photos! That Alyssa is a cutie.
ReplyDeleteGreat minds think alike, made banana bread today too. :) Happy BDay to your brother. Looks like a nice time. Such a sweet little baby.
