Love Notes

I have been back at work for 5-1/2 weeks now, and the reality of our childcare situation has definitely set in. Derek gets home from work in the morning, usually just in time for me to run out the door to catch the bus. When I get home from work he's asleep and Julia has been here as our "baby stopgap" for 3 hours. When Derek wakes up a little after 9pm to eat and get ready for work, I head into the bedroom to go to bed. I'm off Friday-Sunday, but Derek is so tired by that point that he needs to take advantage of having me around to catch up on some much-needed sleep! Thankfully I have a lot of flexibility at work so we are at least able to chat for 10 minutes here and there to catch up on stuff about S&Z and schedules. But mostly I feel like all we do is pass the baby baton between us.

So you can imagine how tickled I was when I recently undressed Silas to put on his pajamas before bed and found a "love note" that Derek had left me via a onesie.

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!
