  • ToDaY…

    Today I …

    trimmed 160 fingers and toenails

    prepared 24 meals (8 people x3 meals each) and 12 snacks

    washed 7 loads of laundry

    paid bills

    broke up fights

    cleaned up broken glass

    wiped away tears and mended broken hearts

    ran my finger along a window sill and made note to myself I should dust someday

    painted some words on the wall that were needing to be finished up

    hung up some curtains

    thought about taking a nap

    admired lego creations (Ben and Michael are hoping to get their picture in the Lego Magazine)

    encouraged creativity (Josh brought me weeds, grass and a rock as a gift for my kitchen window sill)

    took pictures of Jules because she just turned 4 months 

    thought about all the things that I need to write on here so I can remember them in the years to come

    (Ben did the editing on the pictures of him) 

     

    why I have so much laundry. socks. no shoes.

     

    the result of chopping wood with a hatchet using the wrong end. It bounced back and left it’s mark. Good lesson learned with very little trauma. For that I am VERY thankful.

     

    4 MoNtHs!!! Hoping to get in some more pictures in the next day or so.

  • I love baby feet too! and I also love freckles and little boys with their special toys — enjoy these days — they fly by so fast!

  • Love the pictures! I have never thought of how many meals I prepare a day. Wow!! No wonder I am tired at the end of the day, and need to loose some weightJulia is just beautiful!

  • What is more adorable than a little bracelet on a chubby little wrist like that?!?!?!?
    then again…
    chubby cheeks…
    curled piggy toes….
    those kissable lips….
    all come in as a close runner up!

  • It is amazing what actually get accomplished in ONE day in our lives. Sometimes I think it’s good to sit and write it.  I often get discouraged that I didn’t get much done…but when I sit and think…

    Love the Lego creations!!  I don’t think I could make that stuff.  Great job, guys!! 

  • Wow. When you write it all down like that, it really is a lot! Your kids are so cute. Your little one sure has grown a lot, she’s adorable!

  • My girlfriend said that since I have 4 children I needen’t dust anynmore. That was all I needed to hear :) My days are surrounded by legos and American Girl Dolls!

  • I loved this post!
