Week in the Life (Sunday Recap)

Hellllllooooooo everyone!

We have made it through the week.

Here are my final photos to share for WITL.

Sunday was a work day, so I just shot a few photos before I headed out the door.

Just a glimpse of the "right now".

It's a wrap!
 
See you soon with ideas on how I'm assembling my Week in the Life binder.

Week in the Life (Saturday Recap)

Hello everyone!

6 days down and 1 to go.

It's been a lot of work. But sooooo worth it!

Wouldn't you agree?

Here are my photos from Saturday.

morning view
 

on our way
 

wide open road
 
 making choices
 

E's perspective
 

birthday mom + her kiddos
 
fave pit stop
 

afternoon light
 
one of the last swims this season
 
hunting lizards
 
us
 
So, I made a change today.
 
I stopped with the idea of 1 photo per hour. I just took a photo when something spoke to me.
 
And I'm super happy with today's mix of captured images. It just feels right.
 
Now it's your turn to share with me.

Week in the Life (Friday recap)

Hello everyone!

Here we are at day 5 (Friday) of Week in the Life.


Which, if truth be told, could be called the Caylee show.

10:00 watching my son change his daughter's diaper
 
10:30 eating time / I had to put away all the electronic
devices and choose to spend the time holding her instead /
no regrets
 
11:02 grandpa playing Superman / something he did with
all our little ones at bedtime until they were just too big to do it anymore
 
11:22 story time / bad photo but so much story in here for me /
my husband reading to his grand baby / grand baby listening intently
 
11:55 bath time / she is quite the happy little mermaid
 
3:40  wedding cake cupcake
 
3:41 someone tasting the frosting
 
5:03 dropping off girls for school fundraiser / roller skating
 
8:40 1st real food / sweet potatoes / ate almost the entire serving
 
Thoughts for the day?
 
Really taking less photos now, despite carrying the camera around in my purse.
 
Guess I was living in the moments more than I was capturing the moments.
 
And that's okay with me!
 
How are you doing on your WITL?

So how is everyone doing keeping up with their WITL?
 
I'm good, but noticing fewer and fewer photos each day....
 
Hoping I make it through the last 3 days, but I do have some backup help coming.
 
I have to work weekends, so I'm having my girls help take photos and record what happens around here.  And I love that I'll get their perspective on this project too!
 
Now go have a fabulous day!

Week in the Life (Wednesday recap)

 
 
Hello everyone.
 
It's time to share Wednesday's photos from WITL.
 

7:30 wake up / view out bedroom window
 
9:20 making collages with PicMonkey and cover pages with the Rhonda App /
adding images to Big Picture gallery for the Week in the Life free online class
 
10:58 printing photos for WITL
 
11:50 walked by this drawing by Katie / snagged a photo before it was gifted to Chelsey
 
1:50 Caylee at 18 weeks / smile / stick out lower lip / cry
she just wants her mommy and daddy
 
2:29 Now that her tummy is full she is ready to play / Alec spent lots of time with her through out the day
 

3:11 Katie at dentist / crown prep and 1 small filling for today

 
4:07 still at dentist / "Careless Whispers" playing / love me some George Michael!
 
5:02 stop at Paradise Bakery for soup for Katie / cookies for both of us

6:00 Family dinner at Chili's / chips and salsa are a must have / 
 planned on Texas Roadhouse but ran too late from dentist

7:50 Facetime with Tater / so not impressed /
Hanging out at Starbucks while the girls are at Vball practice
 
 
8:00 watched the last 30 minutes of Vball practice
 
9:00 bath and bed for me / sore throat and freezing cold / going to get good night sleep to fight off possible cold
 
 
So how is this project going for everyone?
 
I'm still loving it, but the family is getting sick of seeing me pull out the camera. And it's getting harder remember to take a photo every hour.
 
Otherwise, I'm still going strong.
 
And I'm starting to work on ideas for how I want the WITL binder to look. I decided to print 2 full page collages for each day, along with 1 full page photo to highlight. And I'm creating a cover page for each day of the week.
 
Now go have a fabulous day!
