365: Day 28


1/28/13: Another day, another virus. Zoe was seen by Dr. R. today. She had to wear this mask for 45 minutes while we waited in a waiting room now devoid of all toys and books (probably due to crazy germs). Her ears are clear and it looks like she somehow got a different strain of the flu than the one she had 2-1/2 weeks ago. How is that even possible, in a human who WAS VACCINATED in October??!! Apparently I was immune to the first strain but not to this one. Ugh.

Aside from low-grade fevers, being extra needy, mom home sick, more missed days of school, and hacking coughs, things are pretty normal around here. Inspired by a picture posted on FB, we did some color mixing tonight when Julia left. I found this simple color wheel online,


and we got to mixing. Zoe started with yellow + red = orange and Silas worked on red + blue = purple. 


Intro to color mixing wouldn't be complete without yellow + blue = green.


 It was a super fun and simple activity that we all loved!

Silas' Blog

Well it's been a busy 3 years since I last posted! Stay tuned as we may have more posts coming now that it looks like I have a new contributor... Silas recently read a book called "Starting Your Own Blog", and now he is bound and determined for us to let him start his own blog! We convinced him that he should start out by drafting content and a posting calendar. We made templates this morning and he wrote his first "post" today!

The Best of Project 366

2012 is coming to a close and I have officially completed Project 366 ! I managed to take and post and keep track of 365 photos out of 366 total days this year. I only missed one day and it was for a pretty good cause . Believe me, these pictures don't take themselves. I shot just under 7000 pictures this year. Once I got an iPhone in March all of the pictures were taken with my phone (~ 5500 pictures!). The camera on the iPhone is really good, I always have it with me, and I like playing around with the filters and other editing tools available in photography apps like Instagram, Camera+, Diptic, and Gridditor. Since I have put so much time, love and energy into Project 366 I thought I should select a few "Best Of's". I had a great time putting this together, and I hope you enjoy these highlights as well!

The Blog Book is Here!!!

My friend, Tom, told me about a website where you can order a bound copy of your blog. I've had it on my radar for awhile, but I finally just got around to making a book of the first year of entries. It starts with 'Icing on the Cake' , the last entry before they were born, and it ends with Halloween . It turned out better than I could have imagined! I cried when I opened it... One hundred ninety-four pages of love, photos, stories, and milestones!
