Week 4 - Project 365

Ok, so this week I did good at keeping track of what pictures I took on what day. But now, I am taking way too many pictures a day. I really wanted to do this project so I would pick up my camera some more, but now it's getting out of control. I feel like a "paparazzi mom". But it's fun and now my kids actually say "Cheese" when I get the camera out, instead of running away or needing some kind of bribe. My girls spend a lot of time at the kitchen table painting/coloring/doing projects/eating...so I tried not to take as many pictures of the kitchen table this week, but I still got a few. Maybe next week I can branch away from the table to other things. Ok, here goes...

Monday - The girls helping me make cupcakes. They love to sit on the counter and help me cook.

Tuesday - David getting some fresh air while still doing work. The weather was nice and he needed to get out of his "office"

Wednesday - I found the girls in the bathroom playing "haircut". That's what they call it, but don't worry, they don't actually cut hair. They just spray a lot of water on the hair and brush it. Carmen even attempted to put some clips in Aliza's hair.

They were painting this day, but the picture really is of Carmen's hair. First, it was a miracle she let me put it in a pony tail and than I was surprised at how long the pony tail was! She really wants her hair to grow long.

Thursday - David playing stake men's basketball

This was after their team won. I won't mention they had all these players against a team of four....GO CHESTER WARD!!!

Friday - GOALS - At joy school the kids have been learning about setting and achieving goals. Carmen has been practicing writing her name

And I have been practicing bread making. This day it turned out the best ever, still not perfect, but edible. I didn't take a picture, but I also made some strawberry jam. YUM!

Saturday - It seems my girls are finally becoming friends and playing better together. This day they played all day together without any fighting. It was a miracle! They entertained each other and I got a lot done in the meantime.

And I just LOVE Aliza's expression in this pictures. It cracks me up everytime I look at it. This is her normal attitude towards Carmen touching her.

Sunday - The girls got new dresses. After they tried them on to see if they fit, they HAD to put some makeup on
