We had so much fun getting our photos together this month. It was one of those times where everyone was happy, we were enjoying a nice walk around the park together, and it proved to be really easy to just grab some snaps as we went along. I love those months. I want every month to be like that please!

October and it's two birthdays for us seems to have totally flown by. It's been full of routines, busyness, and just the general hubbub of life as a five. And of course it's been full of celebrations too. All in all, I'd call it a pretty good month.


November looks to be a busy one for us; with weekends that are chocablock with birthday parties, a weekend away planned, and a home that is freshly on the market. It's crazy to think that in another months time we'll be about to start the magical season that will also bring 2016 to a close.


So all that's left for me to do, is remind you to make sure you tag your family photos with #meandmineproject on Instagram, so we can share some of our favourites. And link up your family photos at the bottom too, I can't wait to see them all. Of course, do remember to pop by my cohost's blogs and see what Alex, Fritha, Jenny, Katie and Lucy's families are sharing this month.

  1. You all look so happy in these photos, they look so natural. Perfect Autumnal photos. Sounds like October has been a lovely month for you all and how exciting that your house is on the market. We sold our house at the weekend and it all feels a bit strange and exciting. x

  3. Oh they are gorgeous photos - I quite agree, wouldn't it be lovely if it was always that easy! Good luck with the big house move, it must be exciting and a little bit bittersweet to be moving but mostly exciting!

    1. Oh my goodness, so bittersweet alongside exciting. This was the home where we became a family, I get all sniffly just thinking about leaving. But hopefully our new family will see us grow and have lots of other exciting milestones. x

    1. I can't believe she's walking either, she's so much earlier than the other two were. Good luck with your big move, I hope it all goes well. And I'm hoping ours will all go relatively smoothly; fingers crossed. x

    1. I didn't actually realise until we got the camera out that we were rocking quite that much grey... it's clearly a family favourite. Hahaha. And for someone who isn't the biggest fan of the colder months, I must confess I rather like our autumnal snaps. x

  17. One year olds in Converse I just can't get enough! It makes the waving goodbye to the baby stage a little easier on the heart when you see them toddling in their converse, hope your house selling kicks off quickly xx
