30 Day Project ~Life Day 3

I am already struggling to find genuine moments that I can set up a tripod to capture!

It is so much easier to just set up the tripod where I want it then put the boys into the shot.

We went hiking, grocery shopping, and to the library earlier in the day but I could not figure out how to get a shot of myself hiking with the boys without stopping what we were doing!

I guess it would not be a challenge if it was not challenging!

I let Justin set the time on his timer.

He uses it for quiet time.

For some reason it is a BIG deal when he gets to use it for other things as well.

Rhubarb strawberry crisp, yum.

Recipe, here.

30 Days ~Life Day 2

My oldest loves to help in the kitchen.

I really am working at letting him help more.

He might outgrow it!

The main reason I do not always let him help is that I am bad with distractions and tend to forget ingredients.

Thankfully even I cannot mess up steamed veggies!

After lunch I thought I would finally help my oldest finish his lego kit he got for Christmas.

He had already dumped all the blocks in with the rest of his lego’s.

An hour later…

I love movie characters in lego form.

It is a good thing I like playing with lego’s just as much as my boys do.

We finished just in time for quiet time!

At least he had something fun to do!

30 Days ~Life Day 1

Day 1

I decided to try and capture the everyday at our house for 30days.

Every morning he comes and hops in my lap while I sit at the computer.

I am a blog reader.

I love looking into other peoples lives.

Usually he only lasts for ten minuets or so.

Then it is time to hop up and start making breakfast for them and get reading for the school day.

These are moments that will pass.

I want them documented.

I am also thinking I should brush my hair before I go out…

Or wear a hat.
