So here I am, 8 weeks post-pneumonia... and I'm finally feeling like I'm back to my old self. People told me that recovery would be slow, and its been a frustrating process but I reckon I'm back at 90%. I never knew that lungs took so long to bounce back. I didn't realise that I would be coughing for a month afterwards, or feel short of breath, tight in the chest, or have dizzy spells on and off for weeks and weeks. I didn't expect that at the first little sign of a sore throat or sniffle, I would be freaking out and be constantly dosing myself with immune support supplements. Yes I'm paranoid about getting sick again, even just a cold. I even got the flu shot for the first time in my life. The week after I got home from hospital, one of my friends told me that Mr 7 had spoken in class about me being sick. I asked him about it. Me - "Were you a bit worried when mummy was in hospital?" Mr 7 - "Yeah... (pause)... I thought you might die" (spoken in a very matter-of-fact tone) Hmmm... Meanwhile Miss 9 kept getting the word "Pneumonia" mixed up with "Leukaemia"... I really hope she got that straight before she told anybody! Its been a winter of sickness in the area too, schools have been hammered and we're all a bit over it. And I've always been a lover of winter, but you know what? I'm welcoming summer with open arms this year - lets burn away all those cold and flu germs with a bit of heat and humidity! Gorgeous 9 day old Madison was SUPER sleepy during her in-home newborn session on the Gold Coast - possibly helped by the fact that it was a 40 degree day outside, so she was lovely and warm in her birthday suit! She was so happy and comfortable that she slept for the entire session and let us get all the images we wanted, and more. Big sister Charlotte was a superstar too, giving her new baby sister lots of cuddles and kisses. One big benefit of doing a newborn session in your home is that siblings can go about their day without too much disruption - toys, movies and familiar things can make them feel so much more comfortable and relaxed.

Our miss 9 went on her very first school camp recently - she had been looking forward to camp for over a year, so this was a very long-awaited treat for her! School camps seem to be a bit different now to when I was a kid - back then I remember we slept in tents, crammed in with a few other girls... in fact my first memory of school camp is spending a very uncomfortable night on an air mattress which kept deflating during the night - I would get up and hand pump it back up, only to have it gradually deflate again! The food at miss 9's camp seems to have been far superior than mine too - she was treated to cakes and slices for morning tea, ice cream every night after dinner and bacon each morning for breakfast! My first camp featured a sweaty chef sporting a stained Bonds singlet (complete with armpit hair hanging out), ants in the salad and pubic hair in the pizza - ewwwww! Anyway they had an amazing time - archery, canoeing, flying fox and a high ropes course, bushwalking, camp skills and damper making, animal feeding and reptile show... I'm actually quite jealous, it sounds like a fantastic holiday to me - sign me up for next year! Beautiful little Adeline was amazing in the studio for her newborn session! She really suited these soft colours and tones - and she looks so sweet nestled in with flowers and feathers! Adeline was 18 days new on the day of her session and she was lovely and sleepy for the majority of the time - so cute! Thank you for the cuddles, little one!
