Project 365: Day 8 – Illuminated Masterpiece

Lily got a Light Bright for Christmas, so she’s been busy making illuminated masterpieces in the bathroom or her closet. The only two rooms in the house that get pretty dark in the middle of the day.

This one is a dinosaur.

Project 365: Day 7 – Me

One of the Project 365 recommendations is to occasionally take pictures of yourself through-out the year to see how you’ve changed.

I don’t like taking pictures of myself. I’m the photographer, not usually the subject. So, here’s a picture of me before date night.

Project 365: Day 6 – Christmas in January

My children are very blessed to be surrounded by people who love them. Tonight, they got to open presents from Jeanette & Scott. Originally, Jeanette was just supposed to be Navy’s babysitter, but over the last 10 months, she and her family have become very dear to us.

Here is Navy, contemplating this package before him. He eventually told a couple of strips of paper, which promptly went into his mouth.

Lily was beyond excited and the pictures I got of her, she is feverishly ripping the paper off of her packages as fast as her little hands will allow. She’s is professional present opener. Navy has a lot to learn from her.

Project 365: Day 5 – 11 Months and Counting Down

Countdown to Navy's 1st Birthday

Someone special is turning one!

Navy is 11-months-old today. I can’t believe how quickly the time has gone. This time last year, preparations were finishing up for Navy’s arrival.

Now, I have an 11-month-old working on his one-year molars. He’s starting to walk. He babbles and will say, “Dada” and “Uh oh.” He can feed himself and is leaving to use a spoon. He prefers his bottle to a sippy cup. He loves his big sister and wants to always be with her, doing whatever she is doing.

A month from today, I will have a one-year-old boy…

Project 365: Day 4 – A New Record

Project 365: Day 4

Lily Got a New Record on Wii

As the day was drawing to a close, I didn’t know what I would post for today. I had originally wanted to take a picture of Lily all ready to go back to school, but that didn’t happen before we were running out the door. Then, I thought about taking a picture of the bathroom that was all clean and tidy because I’ve been working completely going over the house and tidying everything.

As I was putting dishes away, Lily ran into the kitchen and insisted that I get my camera. She had set a new record while playing the homerun derby on Wii. She was so proud of herself, and I just had to take a picture. I think it’s fitting for tonight’s Project 365.
