44/365: A Little Love

The kids and I made these Valentines for all their teachers.  It was fun!  We did not, however, make homemade Valentines for all the kids in their class.  I am kicking myself now, because it is something we always do.  Next year I will make the effort.


43/365: Funny Girl


Olivia and I were taking photos with my phone when I was supposed to be watching Cam play basketball.  Alas, though, I spend most of my time entertaining her because...well... she is 4 and has the attention span of a gnat!  On this particular day we played a lot of "baby bear".  She was the baby and I was the Mama.  I really had to stretch my imagination for that role.  I kept telling her that it was time for baby bear's nap, but she wasn't buying it.  We played about 100 rounds of Tic-Tac-Toe and then I had to resort to an electronic device.  No games, just photos.  She started off all cute and sweet and then I asked for one more.  I had the camera set so we could see the photo as we took it.  She had this cute smile, and then just as I snapped the photo, her face went crazy!  I almost peed from laughing so hard.  I love this kid!!

42/365: I Am Not Proud

I am not a very observant person.  This is not a trait that I am proud of.  A new restaurant could go up in my back yard and I would not notice for months.  I have walked by this rock dozens of times since moving to the park, and never once noticed that there was a plaque on it.  Never mind actually reading it and knowing that Abraham Lincoln's son stood there and read the "Declaration of Independence" on July 4, 1860.  Now, I think that is pretty cool.  I should learn to open my eyes a little more.


41/365: Mommy's Little Helper


How can a Mama say no when she asks me if she can "help" do the dishes.  Granted, I spend about 20 minutes extra cleaning up her cleaning mess, but I really have nothing to complain about.  She is a happy, happy girl.

40/365: I Am a Glutton

My table next to my bed.  I am so gross...


39/365: My Hearts

The Me & Ollie's Cafe in Newington has desserts that no other Me & Ollie's has, like these cupcakes.  These are extra special because they are the first ones I decorated all by myself.  I was very proud of myself.


38/365: I Hate This Picture

But it is the only picture I took on 2/t/2012.  The tomato is organic, so that is a plus...
