Sunday Share: FMS PAD #11 + Weekly Recap

The Week After The Parties
It has been a very quiet week for us since celebrating the kids milestone birthdays last weekend. Just in case you missed it, here is Master M's A Little Golden Book themed First Birthday (Miss B's Parisian 10th Birthday coming soon - watch this space).

We had the Auction on Thursday, unfortunately the house did not sell (we had two investors that weren't overly committed to the property). I'm not going to lie, we were really bummed about it, however we were a little relieved because one of the investors wanted the house in 3 weeks! So for that reason, I am glad they didn't buy it. As soon as the auction finished, our agent got a phone call from someone who was interested and wanted to have a look Friday morning, so we agreed. In fact, that same person is coming to view the house for the second time tomorrow (Monday), so please keep your fingers and toes crossed for us!

In other news...
Master M reached another {MILESTONE MOMENT} - at 1 year and 10 days old, he took his FIRST STEPS!! Just a few steps, a couple of times, throughout the day in front of Mummy, Daddy & Big sister. Well done son! You will be running in no time!

On the 10th of every month, Bron at Maxabella Loves has created the #inthepicture Monthly Link Up . If you missed her first post, you can read it here.

Here is my photo that I shared with Bron on her Facebook page last month. It was my first day back at work and Master M's first day at home-based childcare - We Survived our First Day!

This month I decided to write Bron a letter on my Facebook page.

Dear Bron (Maxabella loves)

Sorry it's a few days late, but here I am - ‪#‎inthepicture‬ for March 2015. These photos are actually very special to me and I thank you for the reminder to be in the picture rather than always being behind the camera. Last weekend we celebrated TWO milestone birthdays, my daughter Miss B turned 10 and my son, Master M turned 1. I would have hated myself if I didn't make the time to get photos with my children on their birthdays (milestone birthdays at that!). The black and white photos are of me with my children on their actual birthdays (5th & 8th March) and we actually got a few family photos throughout the week (even my partner is getting #inthepicture and he hates photos!) I look forward to linking up again next month!

Her reply:

Maxabella loves These are lovely, Charlene. What a cute photo the one is of you all together. I'm so glad you are taking part each month. x

So to all my Mummy friends - take a photo of YOU with your babies and share it with the world - using hashtag #inthepicture.
