Welcome to the bloggy home of Claire Chadwick. I'm the face & designer behind Scissors Paper Rock Designs, a wife to Chris, Mummy to the Divine Miss Ella & our newest addition; Baby Ryder. I'm a Primary School Teacher by trade, but recently shut my classroom door to pursue other BIG dreams of Freelance Writing. I am also excited to announce that my first Children's Picture Book {So Many Sounds} will hit stores in June 2013. This blog is my little online space where I weave together my reflections and stories of Motherhood. I illustrate with photos.... and drink plenty of coffee to keep me going. I'm on a mission to turn the mundane moments of motherhood into MAGICAL ones. 

Join me in seeping as much goodness out of life, {whilst I continue to drink way too much coffee & take way too many photos} and together we can make the most of our WILD & PRECIOUS LIVES!

I'd love to hear from you....comment on my posts or send me an email. Buckle up, Enjoy the ride!

Live! Laugh! Love!

6 Pictures. 

Eden prompted the bloggy world to share some of their favourite photos from the week! Yah, this Mumma couldn't resist.....coz between my 2 cameras plus my iPhone....I take A LOT of photos!

Here's just a very few from this past week.....

I had Ella's first 'parent / teacher' interview this week. Her Kindy teacher is all kinds of lovely & we're happy with how things are traveling. In a nutshell....we're super proud of our girl. She's rockin' this Kindy gig :) I took a quick photo of 'Our Family' that she drew! Haaa....love the Rapunzel hair....and her commentary the teacher has written :) {not quite sure why I'm bald....again! lol}

Mr Ryder has been CRANKY this week! I love him dearly and think he's all kinds of scrumptious flavours......but gosh I wish the boy would sleep more! Piddly 20minute sleeps during the day & still waking approximately 4 million times per night.....c'mon! Don't know if it's teething, growth spurt, or just him being him.....but I really think if he napped just a bit longer than 20minutes at a time.....he'd probably be a lot happier for it....and so would I....just sayin'. Hoping our content little man returns sooooon.

I actually really like this photo of Ella & I. Maybe coz my sunnies hide the bags under my eyes haaa!

Last Sunday, Ella & I headed to her Kindy for 'Family Day'. We had planned to go as a 'family'....all four of us, but Chris offered to stay home with Mr Cranky-Pants {refer to above comment}, to give this Mumma a break. Thank you Chris.....THANK YOU!! Love you xxx And I enjoyed a few hours out with my little lady. It was actually kind of fun...even though we had to wear dorky name tags & I had 2 four year olds ask me where my hat was...coz the rule is "No Hat, No Play!" Eeeekkksss....I didn't know there was going to be hat monitors there. Bad Mummy!! :)

The fire brigade were there. Ella was a little shy at first about the whole hose experience....but once she saw her friend Leilah do it....she was keen :)

So there....a few quickie snap shots from the week :)

How has your week been? Ready for a new one?

Happy Sunday All x

Our 10 month old is not a fan of sleep much either - I think we've created a monster here because we've been so worried she'd wake the entire house we've always rushed in to get her! Gorgeous pics and love your children's names xx
