DDP and blog aborted until further notice

Life was really easy to manage with my beloved Ipod.  Well it has been lost since round 3 of the flu in our home.  I wish wish wish everyday to find it in the stupidest spot...but that spot has not been found.  Until I find it, this blog will be used minimally:(

Until the Ipod is found....

DPP 9

Maybe this is a sign of one too many samples at sam's or just some great creativity ....I came downstairs to the sample man. I had this wood shelf ready to go to city mission because it wasn't serving a purpose in our house, but I guess Patton just gave it a purpose. I love this kid....somedays more than others. Only Annie can understand that one. Haha

This pic was delayed by momma getting sick herself. After returning to the kitchen after getting sick the first time I found this....Ike helping himself to the yogurt that was left on the table. It isn't easy being sick at suppertime and having 3 starving kids by yourself.

DPP day 7

Stomach.flu.go.away!!! Poor baby Ike asleep in the car after taking big brother Patton to daycare.

DPP 6

So much for stating my theme.... Today was a crazy but productive day. Good thing I took this picture this weekend. I was pretty excited that a pre-pinterest world I wanted to make a tree skirt that has the boy's handprints each year we put up the tree. Ike's hand print was a bit difficult but got the job done.

Momma makes the blog. I love it when Ike is all bundled up after a bath. He is getting so big. I have spent most of this year wishing for him to get big...well wishes come true and new wishes begin-wishing he was little again. He now knows how to carefully go up AND down the stairs. Oh boy!! I think I have found a theme for my DPP a kid a week. Ike is this week

Ike seems to be my victim for this project... This week anyway. Nothing says December Photo Project without a great first picture with Santa. I am so thankful to live in the community that we live in. We had a great "village" potluck tonight. We were able to start the meal off in prayer. Only in a small community. Yet another thing to be grateful for.

DDP 3

Who stoke the cookie from the cookie sheet? Who me? Couldn't be.

I was entirely too tired of bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast.... So we made cookies. Males sense, right?

DDP 2

Just like Grandma Jackie's Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup. What is the secret?
1) I can't divulge to everyone
2) need to see the expert in action to get all the directions

Love love love

Note: anyone who knows me I love to search and search for great women who love God, love their husbands, love their children and keep an organized home. Why it took me until my Grandpa Roger's death to realize I have that ideal women in my life.... My grandma. I realize I have many more other GREAT women in my life, but for some reason I haven't went to my Grandma for this. What an amazing lady she is. I love you Grandma Jackie!

DPP day 1

Not a good way to begin the extremely fun December Photo Project. This atlases gives me an excuse why I am posting Day 1 on Day 2 early. Here's to hoping for medicines to work.
