Week in the Life: Wednesday

Day three! I passed the camera to Tyson lots yesterday so he could capture our everyday lives as well. He loved it and some of his photos aren't too bad!

Dusty leaving for work in the morning.

Getting Jack changed, lotioned, and dressed.

Tyson doing his "morning chores".

Week in the Life: Tuesday

Day two.

Tyson lays next to the heater vent to get warm this morning.

Jack raids the cupboard as soon as he is free to wander.

I get black eyed peas, with ham, carrots and red peppers going in the crock pot.

Dusty has hand washed some dishes and they are ready to be put away.

A view of the crib. Jack sleeps with lots of mini blankets.

I get my purse ready to run errands: banks, etc.

Jack wants to snuggle on my lap or play. Heaven forbid I look at the computer alone.

Finally it's Jack's naptime. He goes down so well.

Tyson gets the usual for lunch. A PB & J sandwich.

After waking, I give Jack lunch also: tuna and sweet potatoes.

After Dusty gets home from work, he mows the lawn and Jack watches through the window.

Dusty leaves for meetings, Tyson watches a cartoon, and I go through my magazines.

Week in the Life: Monday

Day one yesterday.

Lots of stuff goin' on. To get ready for this week, I looked at my two past albums (in 2008 and 2010) and it made me so glad that I am doing this again. It's very intenstive and requires lots of commitment for the whole week, but is so so worth it. It's amazing how much life changes and we don't even realize it. Or we do realize it but we think we will remember the details. When I look through this project it catapults me back into those past moments. And that's the whole point I think.

These posts are going to be just highlights. I took a zillion pictures yesterday and did many more things (some that I'm unwilling to share on the blog) :) But this is a pretty good look.

Getting Jack breakfast: a starter of toast and banana. Finishing up with cereal.

Breakfast on the counter-top.

A beautiful bowl Dusty's Mom gave us for Christmas that she picked up in Poland.

Books that have kept me busy for the past four months.

Getting the laundry sorted for my weekly laundry marathon.

A quick photo after Facetime with Mom.

Girly stuff in my bedroom.

My favorite red wall.

Looks like Tyson was liking it.
