Dear Papa....

Ever since Ben went back to work after Josephine was born, I've been meaning to send him a picture a day of what we're up to, so he doesn't feel like he's missing out too much; leaving for work each morning is tough for that boy, as I'm sure it is for most of the Papa's out there. So far we've only managed the odd picture, but this week we got organised and Phiney and I have been sending him a sweet picture and caption every day that remind him we're always thinking of him.

Monday: Chillin' in the rocker.
Tuesday: Rocking the stripes.
Wednesday: Sofa snoozes at Nana's house.
Thursday: Colour co-ordinated Mama and Phiney.
Friday: Serious Mohawk.

It's been fun doing this, and it's something we want to keep up with. Ben loves receiving each and every one, forwarding them to his team with pride. He's seriously smitten with his baby girl.

Photos taken on my i-Phone. I'm hoping to post these each Friday evening; just wasn't quite on the ball this week.

    Awww, we try and do the same when my partner works away, it must be tough for them. Some fantastic baby outfits there, my little bean rocks a good stripe too : )

    Oh we do that too! Edie is 11 months now and when E and I go to visit her Papa at work, his wall is covered in pictures of her. Not one of me though...

    Gorgeous. I always think how hard it must be for them leaving for work each morning. We are pretty lucky us Mama's! xx

    That's a very fun idea! My husband loves receiving pictures of our little guy but it would be fun to do one a day!

    Now that is one super cool mohawk.
    Maybe if we make it to Bath in June/July we could meet up for a cuppa?
