My 365 Project

I have never been one to like my picture taken. I've always been the one behind the camera. My mom passed away ten years ago and I have very few photos of her. Only a handful of photos of my youth exist. I have my memories and no one can ever take that but for my kids, I want lots and lots of photos. My husband laughs at me sometimes because I take so many pictures of the kids. I don't want to miss a single milestone. They grow up too fast and if you're not careful you'll miss something important. My friend Girl is an amazing photographer and she did a 365 project last year. She's an artist and was very creative with her pictures. It was inspiring to watch her from afar and admire her work. She inspired me to take photos of myself with my children. It is going to be really hard and often times very boring but I WILL take one picture a day for the next year. I WILL do this for my children. I'm not an artist but a picture a day with one of my beautiful children should be a doable task. Wish me luck!

Corn on the Cob




She's never been much for puree's. She's more of table food kind of girl. Tonight while we were eating she kept getting excited and grunting every time she saw someone with the corn on the cob. I finally decided to let her give it a whirl. She doesn't have any teeth so she can't really bite it but wheres the harm in letting her suck on the cob and enjoy that wonderful sweetness? She loved it! She gnawed on that cob until she sucked all of the pure sweetness out and then she was happy! :)

Standing Alone




Milestones are so bittersweet. It's so exciting watching her hit each and every milestone. She's learning and growing so fast. On one hand, it's amazing, but on the other hand, it makes me sad. My baby isn't such a baby anymore, she's growing up. I already miss her being an infant. It is so important to me to hang on to every memory and every step of her journey. Before I know it she'll be walking and talking.

Couch Potatoes



It's very rare that she gets still long enough to enjoy couch time but tonight she was game for a little while. Nothing like sweet baby snuggles while watching the news.

Her Computer



She sees mommy and Bubba on the computer all the time and she always wants to join in on the fun. She's helped herself to my computer more times than I can count. For Christmas we bought her a pink computer of her very own. She loves it and plays with it all the time but it hasn't kept those little fingers from mommy's computer. :)

Pink Tractor Ride



She's getting so big so fast. She loves to be pushed around on the pink tractor. It's kinda funny, when you stop, she turns around and looks at you as if to say, "Get to pushin'!" It's so much fun watching them grow and learn.

Good Night Giggles



Good night kisses turn into good night giggles. When she gets really tired and sleepy she gets really silly. Those smiles and giggles are worth a million bucks!

Lego Time



Building lego castles with my girls is so much fun. Sister enjoys building things and Thumper loves trying to eat the blocks, lol.
