Five Days of Black and White (2/2)

[nanila]

This post is where I don't talk about the General Election because I'm still too horrified about the outcome.

Instead, I present you with Day 5 of Five Days of Black and White, featuring baby and nekkid!toddler. Day 4 is behind a cut because it's mildly NSFW and contains an adult.


Day 5: Humuhumu showing off her dirty feet. Keiki still not impressed with being in front of a camera lens.


Day 4: This is me, celebrating reclaiming my body. I've worked hard on it the past five months (through diet & exercise) and it's finally starting to feel like it's mine again. Okay, since I'm breastfeeding, technically two parts of me still belong to the baby, but I'm really pleased to have come this far.

The kids are so adorable. Yep, those are impressively dirty feet she has there. Keiki really isn't to enthused, though, is he? :)

Congrats on your progress - you look great!

Humuhumu loves running around barefoot. Today she got rid of her wellies as soon as our backs were turned and the socks went shortly afterward.

Poor Keiki. I'm sure he'll be a lot happier once he can sit up and move around too. He doesn't much like being trapped in the Bumbo.

Thank you!

:D

You do take such lovely photos. I quite like the texture of the bench in your first photo.

[nanila]

Thank you. It's nice to hear that. Especially since most of my shots are taken in haste, and often with a cat, a toddler or a baby in the other hand!

[pulchritude]

I think you look great! :)

[nanila]

Thank you very much! :D

Condolences, congratulations and a word to the wise

[ed_rex]

I don't blame you at all for not wanting to talk about that; having just seen one of our (reputedly) most conservative provinces soundly shock the Canadian body politic by throwing out a 40+ year dynasty in favour of a left(ish) NDP government, the British result came as a bit of a long-distance body-blow. Or at least, reality check.

Meanwhile, Humuhumu looks as pointlessly proud of her dirty feet as you are rightfully proud of your reclaimed body.

Finally, there was no cut on my reading page, so you might want to check on that. I wasn't bothered, but others might be. (Also, and I really hate to bring it up, on account of it's insane, I can't tell if you friend-locked the post. If not, you might want to consider it. Not everyone sees a picture of a naked child as inherently innocent.)

Yeesh. I really sandwhiched the congralutions with some ugliness, didn't I? I'm sorry about that ...

Go you!

It's amazing how much Humuhumu looks like the bloke!

[nanila]

Thank you! Yes, she's a "father-face", as my neighbour calls her. :)

[kate]

My goodness that is a ridiculously cute picture of those two! :D

[nanila]

Humuhumu knows how to ham it up. And she's teaching Keiki, so once he can move around, I reckon we're in trouble!

[askygoneonfire]

You look absolutely amazing. Many congratulations. I am daily impressed by your dedication when I log on to MyFitnessPal (and thank you also, because it serves to inspire me)

Can't believe it's been warm enough there for nekkid garden time! Humuhumu looks thoroughly delighted with her dirty feet.

[nanila]

Thank you! I'm plateauing now with weight loss, which is a bit frustrating since I just started being able to add running back to my exercise menu. I shall persevere. And likewise, I get a little boost every time I see you've done your daily logs! :)

There were bare dirty feet again today, although it was deemed too cold for nekkid garden time due to high winds.

Sorry about the election. You are looking really great! Love the expression too! The kids are at a fun age. Do Brits say nekkid?

[nanila]

Thank you! No, the Brits don't say nekkid. They seem to find it amusing when I do, though, so it's an expression I've kept. :)

[pbristow]

We only say nekkid when we're quoting "The Streak".

(Loved that song as a kid. =:o} )
