Growing up and living only a few minutes away from the beach, I was always a summer girl. However, last year when Grace was born, I was confined to the house more over the months following May and I found myself enjoying winter and its cosiness too. This year with all the bugs and colds that have seemed to follow us around over this colder period, I have really looked forward to and am enjoying Spring. Here in Perth we have beautiful sunny days forecast for the next week, perfect for spending time outdoors which is definitely where Grace prefers to play.
On Monday, my friend Lyndell and I took advantage of the warmer weather and took Grace to a nearby park to feed the ducks. Grace had a ball throwing pieces of bread to all the birds, although the two swans were being a bit too friendly and becoming a bit territorial with their little cygnets in tow.
These photos were all taken Lyndell - I always love seeing the moments she has captured…
How lucky you are to have such nice weather. It has been miserably wet here. Lovely photos of Grace and the cygnets.xx

Such a beautiful post Amanda. Your sweet Grace is just the most gorgeous little sweetie! We used to have a local park within 5 mins walk from our Sydney home, where our girls used to feed the ducks...they loved it. I miss it:) Hope the weather stays lovely for you, so both Grace and yourself can enjoy the outdoors:) Hugs ~ Tina xx

At first glance, I didn't think anything could be cuter than those cygnets. Miss Grace proved me wrong. There is such joy on her fave. :-)

ReplyDeleteI'm a summer girl myself even though I grew up in Tokyo, but after having lived on the East Coast of the United States, my favorite season now became autumn. I LOVE the fall there. I hear you about bugs and colds. When you have kids, your world changes. I enjoyed being in a warm home when it's cold outside.
ReplyDeleteThanks for leaving me many comments on my blog! It's so sweet of you. This morning I woke up and saw your comment and it was the 500th comment for my blog. Yay! Every little mile stone is memorable to me. I posted an entry in regards to that and I linked your blog as you hit the 500th comment, so if you haven't seen it, it's there. Have a great Saturday!!
