‘Show you were there’ round up

Another Sunday, another round up from my lovely little community #ShowYouWereThere.

In case you’ve not heard about it before, #ShowYouWereThere is all about getting more parents in more photos.  So any photos that feature you, or your partner, in some way, shape or form then just tag them with #ShowYouWereThere when you share them on Instagram to join in, and potentially be featured in one of these little round ups!

Now, on to my four favourite photos that were shared in the last week.

My first pick for this week is this lovely family selfie from Sue at Life Starts After Coffee.  In the caption Sue said that she had an abscess when the photo was taken, but honestly I would never have known, she looks fab!  Hope it’s all sorted for you now though Sue!

Next up in this gorgeous baby-wearing photo from Nicola at Mummy to Dex.  I’m such a sucker for a baby-wearing photo, and this one just really makes me smile, it’s such a happy photo.

My third choice for this week is from Amy at The Smallest of Things.  Not only is this a lovely photo, but the caption that Amy wrote for it has really stuck with me this week.  Her attitude and determination to fight her anxiety is just really inspiring.

Finally, I’ve chosen this lovely mother/daughter photo from Ruth at Mummy and the Mexicans.

On chilly, soggy autumn days it’s really nice to see a little summer flashback like this pop up in my feed!

Thank you so much to everyone who is using #ShowYouWereThere, I love seeing your photos popping up over on instagram, they always bring a huge smile to my face!

Now, my turn.

I’m really ashamed to admit that I’ve not posted a photo of myself in my round ups for a few weeks.  Because I’ve not been in front of the camera.  Which is just awful considering what this whole community is about.

So I’ve made a commitment to myself, that one way or another I WILL get in at least one photo every week.

And I’m off to a good start, with this little beach selfie that Steve and I took yesterday.

I just love how this photo seems to really emphasise the height difference between us!  I so often forget that he’s a foot taller than me, because I’m so used to it.  Then I see photos like this and they really make me smile because I just seem to short next to him.

If you’d like to join in with my little community and possibly be featured in my next round up (with a nice link back to your blog!) then just share a photo of yourself over on instagram using #ShowYouWereThere.  It’s all about getting more parents in more photos.  And if you’d like to take part in my guest post series ‘The photo I’m thankful for‘ then take a look at this post or email me at thisgloriouslife@gmail.com for more information.
