Day #52 – 2/22

Playdough time!!

So don’t mind the nasty closeup – here I am right after running a mile (and if you know me, you know how big of a deal this is … I just DON’T run!

Day #54 – 2/24

The future quarterback

Week in Review, vol. 7

Another week has come & gone!  Here are some my snapshots for the week…

Day #43 – 2/12/10

Hanging with their cousin at the park

Day #44 – 2/13/10

My basil plant. I’ve bought many a basil plant and they always die. But this one, miraculously, has been around since probably October. AMAZING!

Day #45 – 2/14/10

Valentine’s Day – we gave Eli some warheads and he ate them all. And complained about his tongue hurting for 2 days after. LOL

Day #46 – 2/15/10

This is what the backyard looks like now that the house is gone. Of course there are still a few random porches and pressurized water pipes sticking up, not to mention broken glass everywhere – but hey. The old house is gone.

Day #47 – 2/16/10

Ryan earned a little star for doing a school fundraiser and he asked me to take a picture of him holding it.

Day #48 – 2/18/10

My super awesome magnets on the fridge

Day #49 – 2/19/10

My little sleepwalker.  He looked at these pictures today and said “I don’t remember that!!!” and when I told him they were from last night, he said “NO they weren’t.  You’re just joking with me!!!”  LOL

Week in Review, vol. 6

Another week has come and gone!  Here’s what we did this week…

Day #36 – 2/5/10

R looks very calm in this picture.  But in reality, he was anything BUT.  He just bounces while he plays video games.  Up and down.  Over.  And over.

Day #37 – 2/6/10

The sunset was gorgeous after the rains.

Day #38 – 2/7/10

The New Orleans Saints have won the superbowl.  What are you going to do now???  I think I’ll sneak some more snacks…

Day #39 – 2/8/10

These are the mailboxes the kids decorated.  We’ve been putting little notes and treats in there for them for the past few weeks.

Day#40 – 2/9/10

These cookies are straight from you-know-where.  I think there is no other food on earth that has their kind of power over me.  They are just ridiculous.  We made them for T & E’s school parties so fortunately most of them didn’t stay at home with me.

Day #41 – 2/10/10

T at our very last Valentine’s Day party at mommy & me

Day #42 – 2/11/10

R drawing a super cool robot with chalk on the front porch

Week in Review, vol. 5

Feb 6th, 2010 by admin | 2

It’s Saturday!  Time for a quick review of our week in photos.

Day #29 – 1/29/10

Someone didn’t sleep during naptime.  So someone crashed out on the couch just before dinner.

Day #30 – 1/30/10

I bought these little mailboxes from the $1 bins at Target and had the kids each decorate their own.  We set them out until Valentine’s Day for the kids to put little notes and pictures in each others boxes.

Day #31 – 1/31/10

My new favorite drink – I probably have 4 cups a day.  LOL.  Thank you, Lipton.

Day #32 – 2/1/10

My awesome computer tech performing surgery on my baby – she was out of commission for a few days!

Day #33 – 2/2/10

I think this photo speaks for itself.

Day #34 – 2/3/10

E chillin’ outside

Day #35 – 2/4/10

Week in Review, vol. 4

Jan 30th, 2010 by admin | 2

Wow – this post will complete one month of taking a photo every single day!  It’s getting easier to remember to do it but I’m really surprised that I haven’t missed one yet!  LOL.

Here’s week #4!

Day #22 – 1/22/10

It was SO cold and rainy that the snow level dropped REALLY low on the mountains.  This is a shot from our front yard looking towards the back.

Day #23 – 1/23/10

The boys had been playing video games for a while and T hadn’t gotten a chance to play.  So we let her have some Wii time all by herself.  She wanted to play Mario Kart and was so good at it that the boys were all sitting around cheering her on!

Day #24 – 1/24/10

Ahhh.  Fruit.  Delicious, glorious fruit.  I hadn’t had a piece of fruit for two weeks and I enjoyed every bite of this apple!

Day #25 – 1/25/10

Today I went with E’s class to the Discovery Science Center.  It was VERY chaotic, but E had a blast which is what counts – right?

Day #26 – 1/26/10

Ok – so today’s picture isn’t the least bit exciting.  But it represents how I spent a chunk of my day: photographing things to use in my latest digital scrapbooking kit.  I coverted this drawer face into a worn wooden board for a cowboy kit I just did! :)

Day #27 – 1/27/10

Wow.  The moon was crazy cool tonight.  The clouds were moving quickly so I didn’t have time to set up my tripod or anything so the quality of these isn’t perfect, but the picture still turned out pretty cool!

Day #28 – 1/28/10

Uh-oh.  Someone has offended her royal highness.

Week in Review, vol.3

I can’t believe I’m still here and still going!  It makes me feel good – like I might actually accomplish completing this project!!

Here are my photos from this week.  It’s been a week full of rain and storms and staying indoors.

Day #15 – 1/15/10

T bowling  – she stood like this EVERY time she’d roll the ball!

Day #16 – 1/16/10

The remnants of Tiana’s artistic creativity strewn about the kitchen.  She looooves cutting paper.

Day #17 – 1/17/10

Playing a game of Tripoly at my parents’ house last weekend – it was E’s first experience playing with the adults :)

Day #18 – 1/18/10

The four monkeys watching the rain outside

T and her cute little cousin

Day #20 – 1/20/10

The beginning of a small lake in our backyard – it POURED this week!
