What my Nina James Durrant is like at 3 months old

October 29, 2014

durrants-2

Today Nina James Durrant is 3 months old. I was scrolling through my Instagram feed yesterday while I was lying in bed next to her and I was amazed at how much she has changed and grown in such a short amount of time. You know everyone kept and keeps telling me to appreciate every moment with her because it all goes by so fast and before I know it she won’t be a baby anymore, I’m starting to believe they’re right. She changes so much it’s actually scary, sometimes I can see a difference in a day.

So what I have decided to do is document her every few months, write about what she looks like, her mannerisms and just how she changes and grows. I got this idea from a blogger I follow that runs a site called The Stork and The Beanstalk, she has 2 boys that she writes about and I really enjoy her stories and her awesome photos.

Mom’s night out.

BOS-DESMOND

On Saturday I went to go watch Shane and the boys perform for the first time in literally 8 months. My folks were in town and I took the opportunity to cash in a ‘babysitting card’ and when it’s your mom and dad fulfilling that duty and they probably love your baby more than any human on this planet, including yourself, you know you have nothing to worry about.

Desmond and The Tutus have released yet another promo video for their new album Enjoy Yourself. It’s all about a cooking show called Budget Family Recipes with Chaz Chaddely and it’s flipping funny. If your Monday is feeling like a sandwich with nothing but wet lettuce on it, then click play and have yourself a laugh.

Also please note how flipping convincing the boys are at pulling off the white trash look. Doug’s tissue up his nose kills me.

Nina James – my heart

My little human is going to be a whole 7 weeks old tomorrow. So far everyday with her has been wonderful, she makes me so happy that I can’t even think straight. Everyday I see a difference in her, the way she interacts with us, the way she looks, can’t believe how quickly she grows and changes. My Miss James is just the sweetest little thing and she’s started smiling now, which gets me every time, it’s like seeing the greatest magic trick ever over and over again.

Thought I would share some photos of her with you guys…

Desmond and the Tutus – Slumber Party

September 10, 2014

My boys in Desmond and the Tutus have made a bunch of very funny promo videos for their new album Enjoy Yourself. Last week they were a troop of boy scouts telling scary stories and this week they’re just a bunch of innocent school girls having a slumber party, you know nothing out of the ordinary, just a bunch of semi-bearded men dressed like 15 year olds.

I helped on this shoot and I think I may have ruined some takes with my laughing in the background. It was so funny to watch this lot behave like love-struck teenagers, especially Doug, who to me was like a real life South Park character that has been home schooled for way too long. Plus how much do Shane and Craig look like girls?! Girls with facial hair problems, but girls non the less.

Anyway, enough preempting, have a watch and no doubt a laugh. Oh and parental guidance is advised ha!

*Hanro Havenga shot all these videos.
