“a portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2013”

penelope: munching on some goldfish while swinging outside. one of her favorite things to do.
ruby: stretching out on the changing table…enjoying her fresh, clean diaper. ;)

a few blogs that i follow are doing this 52 in 2013 challenge. you choose anything you want…naturally i chose my girls…and take a photo of them once a week, every week, for the entire year. awesome excuse to bust out with my slr more and of course take EVEN more photos of my girls. ;) technically this should be 2/52 but i was out sick all last week so that doesn’t count. i’ll make it up eventually. :) i challenge y’all to join! what will y’all be taking a photo of each week??

i first saw the challenge over at sometimes sweet, which then lead me to che and fidel. :) happy picture taking!

it’s not too late

Category: everyday | January 10th, 2013


it’s not too late to start some new years resolutions and goals! i just got this book that i ordered the other day and i am super excited to get started. it’s a 5 year memory book where you can write a line a day for the entire year. i got the idea from love taza and thought it would be such a neat idea (and fun/easy goal to keep up with). i am writing one thought per day….one thought. i can handle that. anyone can handle that! but how cool is it going to be to look back each year and see what one thought i had that day, that year. i think that’s pretty cool. ;)  AND it’s a pretty good deal over on amazon (and prime for all you prime people!) ;)

so it’s been a over week in 2013….how many of y’all have kept up with your resolutions?! :) sadly…i didn’t even make it one day since we all got sick. BUT..like i said, it’s not too late so i will be starting over now that i am almost feeling like my normal self. so here i go. :)
