7/365 Sniffles, Snot & Sweetness

Poor Collin's nose has been running something fierce the past two days.

Have gone through way too many tissues.

Daddy didn't have work today.

And spent some quality time with the kids.

This photo here, while not technically correct..

Melts my heart more each time I see it.

6/365 Stomach Coating, Goodness, & Warmth

So Yummy In The Tummy!

Yes, that's what fresh, real oatmeal is. 

So many complain about it not having flavor,

and tasting like cardboard.

But really the taste possibilities are endless.

Today: Maple Syrup & Brown Sugar 

With a dash of cinnamon for appearance sake.

Perfect way to wake up on a cold morning.

Perfect lunch on a cold day. 

Perfect any time snack

With so many possibilities!

5/365 Faith, Trust, & Pixie Dust

Magical, Breathtaking, Amazing. 

All terms that describe Disney on Ice.

The children loved it.

Almost as much as I did.

The hubs loved it.

Almost as much as the children.

4/365 Vampires, Immortals, & MethHeads

I like to read. A lot.

Up until recently, for the past 6 years I've read only parenting related books.

Since November 19th, I've read these books.

All but the Vampire Academy books, which I've just started. 

House of Night, The Immortals,

Vampire Academy, and a series by Hopkins about drug addiction.

All great books.

All perfect for day 4's photo.

3/365 Sweetness, Cuteness, & Indecisiveness

Took photo's of Collin for his third birthday which is fast approaching,

Bailey wanted in on the action.

Now Mommy can't choose..

2/365 Resolutions, Dedication, & Motivation

3 months ago I jumped hard onto the Gym bandwagon.

Not wanting to make a typical weight loss new years resolution,

I vowed to stick with it.

20 days ago today was the last time I hit the gym. 

It appeared I fell off that wagon.

Today,

grabbing my keys with gym card,

a bottle of water,

and my new heart rate monitor,

I made it back to the gym

One hour and ten minutes, and 683 calories burned! 

It feel's so good to be back! 

Especially since I managed not to gain a single pound

through out the cookie, er..I mean Holiday Season! 

1/365 Interest, Obsession, & Addiction

Today is day 1 of my 365 Project.

I thought for days of what to make my first photo..

Could not figure it out..

A self portrait, to introduce myself to my new readers?

My cup of tea, and methadone, to show my day to day consistency I hope to achieve here? 

I ended up noticing my son laying across the arm of the couch, playing his DS.

He is completely obsessed and addicted to his DS;

kinda like my camera and I. 

He is so interested in playing. 

Every. Single. Day.

His devotion to this small electronic device is sickening,

but I understand and can relate.

So I give you, my very first photograph of 2011.
