Project 365–Day 7

Tummy Time!  This didn’t last long as he has figured out how to roll from his tummy onto his back, yay!

Project 365–Day 6

Elijah is in 3rd grade this year and will be tested at the end of the year to make sure he has learned everything he’s supposed to.  I bought a special book and he has been practicing taking tests.  Here, he’s working on an english test which is his hardest subject.

Project 365–Day 5

A cute, morning shot, complete with crazy bed hair!  For any of you who didn’t think I ever combed my boys hair, now you know what it looks like BEFORE it’s combed!

Mark, Jeremiah, and Micah were having so much fun wrestling!  I just had to capture this moment!

Project 365–Day 3

Malachi is the subject of my picture for today.  I LOVE those big eyes!  He was just hanging out in our bed after keeping us up most of the night.  He looks a lot more awake than either Mark or I was, ha!

Project 365–Day 2

Here is my picture for the day.  My camera takes poor night time shots, hence the off coloring, this was about 5 p.m. and all our blinds were already shut.   The kids were working together on schoolwork, and were so intent on what they were doing that they didn’t even notice I was taking a picture! 

Project 365

A friend of mine has started doing something called a project 365 this year, she will be taking a picture everyday and posting it to a flicker account.  The goal behind it is to become a better photographer.  She even joined a group online of people doing the same thing.  I know myself and my schedule and making that kind of commitment would be nearly impossible.  However, I love the idea of having a picture taken everyday and at the end of the year having an album of pictures showing our daily life.  So, I am going to try and start my own album without signing up for the support group.  Then if it gets to be too much I can just drop the whole idea without feeling guilty or like I’m letting anyone down.  I will try and add one picture for each day(not necessarily added individually though, more likely all at once, once a week or so) although they may not get posted here.  I will also be posting them to my FB account. 



This is the picture I choose for my first one.  I took all kinds of pictures, from piles of laundry to kids on the computer to Mark holding Malachi but I loved this picture.  It shows Micah’s quirky temperament and silliness.  :)  I know it’s not a great picture but I loved it all the same.
For anyone interested in joining the group (who’s more motivated then I am!) you can find more information here.  Also, the pictures will be uploaded to this Flickr account https://www.facebook.com/PeasAndCarrotsStudio

Family Picture 2012

Here is our family picture that we will send in our Christmas cards this year.  Thought you all might like to see it.

And here is the picture of Malachi that we are sending.  I’m counting this as his birth announcement rather than sending separate ones.

4 months

Malachi had his 4 month check up today!  He is doing so well!!!!  He is 13 lbs 6 oz. and 25 1/4" long.  Using his actual age this puts him in the 50th percentile for height and the 15th for weight!  Not too shabby!  And it would be even better if the doctor had calculated on his adjusted age.  :-)  I'm so proud of my little guy!

Heads up...

Hi Everyone!  Just wanted to give you a heads up that I haven't forgotten you!  I tried to put together a couple of posts this last week only to be informed that I was out of space to upload any more pictures! So, we are thinking and praying about what to do next.  I can continue to post but without pictures.  It will cost a monthly fee to continue to upload pictures and we are just not sure what to do next.  Pray that we will have wisdom in this decision.  Thanks for your patience as we work this out!
