Project 365- Day 3

I’m going to share a few photos from today, since there are some things I want to remember…

My mom gave Lena some adorable rainbow striped gloves when we were visiting. I got Lena some really cute rainbow striped socks at Target last week ($1 and they have no skid things on the bottom, go check them out!). This morning, I laid out all L’s clothes for her, helped her with her shirt and asked if she wanted me to help with the rest. Nope. I thought I had laid out a shirt, pants, and a pair of socks. Instead, she comes out like this…

(Those ARE the gloves, in case you can’t tell) .

Oops, so I gave her some socks, but she wanted to keep the gloves on anyways and wore them until about 3pm.

(Please ignore the real life that is my dining room in the background. I really need to frame these shots better.)

Again, ignore the “real life” that is my dining room. I am in the process of purging and the dining room is the area I’ve dumped everything in.

He drew this for me. Love that kid!

The other big thing of the day is that I finally cut my hair… YAY! I loved having long hair, being able to pull it back, etc. But, it was heavy and I just wasn’t doing anything with it everyday. So, off to the stylist I went.

Our House, Project 365

Project 365- Day 2

I got the idea this weekend that I wanted to do a little gallery for the kids’ artwork.  I grabbed every extra frame from around our house and spray painted it. Some of them had broken glass, so they were just laying around. In those ones, I put cork, so the kids can hang up things they just made. The big black thing is a chalkboard that Aaron built for them to color on as well. This is a really terrible camera phone photo, but it gives you some idea.

The 365 Project- Day 1

3 Comments

I’ve decided to try to do the 365 project, where you take a photo every day of the year. But, this is a leap year, so it will actually be the 366 project! I want to be more intentional about photographing our life and documenting it. However, I am wayyyy too lazy busy, to use my real camera every day, so I’ll probably be doing a lot of this from my phone.

Yes, I know today is the second, but I wanted to do this and kind of forgot yesterday. Of course. Fortunately, I did take a couple of photos.

Lena in some “new” pajamas. I found them on ebay for $3. They’re Matryoshka dolls. I am totally in love and hope to find a second pair for Helen, but I don’t know if that will happen! L is really, really ready for bed here, in case you can’t tell.

One of my goals for 2012 is to be more intentional about how I dress. I tend to just throw on hoodies and jeans, and just put my hair up. I’d like to get away from that most days and look more put together overall. Of course, it would help when I take photos, if I’d finish cleaning the floor first… I was a little eager to take the photo while I remembered and Aaron was around.
