I have a thing for birds

I'm not sure when or how it happened, but I have a thing for birds.
Don't ask me why, maybe it is something subconscious, representing freedom, wanting my dreams to fly, who knows, but I could watch and listen to them all day long..
So of course naturally this will overflow into my work and ideas of inspiration.
 Here is just a few images to delight.

First Timer

So at the moment we are in India again, well for me it is again but for the Cheeky Monkey it is his first time.
What a trip it has been and to see Banjo love the life of a traveller as much as his mum it has been wonderful.I have always believed that children choose their parents for the experiences that they will give them this life and it is heart warming to see that this is true in my little one.
We are working on a new collection with some new things to excite all our Beej lovers, and of course some things for the little cheeky monkeys in all your lives too.

Here are a few photos of us so far, and soon I will post a sneak peak of what is to come for Beej 2011/2012

this is how we travel, cheeky monkey on my back!!

sleeping the day away

This morning I was lying in bed, a rare luxury these days, and I was thinking how much I loved being in bed. Before my baby it was one of the things I loved to do the most, sleeping in.
 Don't even get me started on an afternoon ciesta, wow those were the days.

I'm sure those days will come back again, but for now I hold on to those wonderful memories of long sleeps and wistful day dreaming and live vicariously through others who get to enjoy this lush experience in equally lush places.

sweet dreams all
