January 22- Sweet M wore this super cute sweater dress to church. All three girls wore dresses today. It is fun to dress up a bit

January 23- New wall decor for the kitchen! The wall had been bare for a few weeks. Now it feels much better and warmer in the kitchen. I spent part of the morning making the prints on either side of the photo collage. The printing out was easy, securely attaching the ribbon to the frame, not as easy as I thought it would be. Not to mention there were three lovely girlies to care for while attempting some craftiness.

January 24- J didn’t take a nap today. She was pleasant, so no nap was needed. While sisters slept, we had some fun with play-doh, coloring and cutting.

January 25- We were playing before bedtime and I was able to snap a few pics of all the girls on the iPhone.

January 26- Rough morning at the Clarke house! J spent the morning with Nana, and I was very grateful that was already set up when L woke up sick. Multiple throwing up, changing clothes (both hers and mine) and a bath was needed. By afternoon she was feeling better and more herself.

January 27- Dinosaur lunch! Mr. Aiden was over to play this morning and for lunch we decided to have PBandJ dinosaurs. They are always a hit!

January 28- Finally decorated our little mail boxes. I have high hopes that we will use these. There is one for each family member and the hope is to leave notes for one another and the girls can make things for each other and mommy and daddy

Ta-da! Here is week three:

January 15: Storytime with Daddy. We had a meeting at church in the evening, girls were still up when we got home. Joe and I had dinner, girls had a snack, and then bedtime routine was in full swing.

January 16: J and L watching the change swirl around the coin drop at Dairy Queen. We were able to meet my mom, brother and grandparents for lunch.

January 17: Photo shoot time! I dressed the girls up and attempted to take some photos. I had a beautiful amount of sun coming through the windows and the girls were cooperating, and then BAM! camera battery dies But I did capture this gem. The next time the sun in shining beautifully into our living room, you better believe there will be another dress up, photo shoot time!

January 18: L LOVES her counting bears! Much time is spent dumping out, putting them in and pouring into different containers.

January 19: J so sweetly “read” to M after bath time. M was looking at the book, making J very proud of herself. J is such a wonderful big sister.

January 20: Busy day! Aiden was over in the morning. Then, we had some other friends come to visit. They are friends from the church I attended growing up, so I’ve known them quite awhile. My friend Sarah has a daughter the same age as J. It was fun to catch up. L was rolling around in the floor and the end result, some CRAZY hair!

January 21: FONDUE! What a nice evening with awesome friends! The kids had their moments and it was a bit stressful at times, but all in all, it was a good time. Another get together is in order before too long.

Alas, I have put together the photos of week two. I didn’t take as many photos last week, which feels weird, this week will be better.

January 8- I spent part of the day making art display boards to display the wonderful masterpieces from our girlies.

January 9- Snuggles with sweet M.

January 10- Playing ‘Ants in the Pants’ with Daddy (or as J calls it ‘Pants in the Pants’)

January 11- J all dressed up for dinner. She is really into being a princess lately.

January 12- We spent our morning with our friend Aiden. It was a joy to have him over and watch them play together. What a silly, fun little guy he is!

January 13- Lazy Saturday, the girls didn’t change out of their pjs. I had a little fun with the multi lens app on my phone. I am disappointed that that was the only photo from that day.

January 14- I spend time editing photos- here is a view of the computer screen and all the folders of photos we have! It is such fun capturing our moments. I am so glad we have as many photos as we do to look back and cherish our memories.

It look awhile to put this together, but it was worth it! I am enjoying taking pictures and being purposeful in capturing our moments.

January 1- We celebrated Matthew and Jackie’s birthdays over at my dad’s house. M was quite intrigued by the balloon. It is so neat watching children experience things for the first time.

January 2- We played outside in the SNOW (L calls is “no”-too cute)! Joe had the day off work, so we had lots of family time. Having Daddy home is always nice!

January 3- I made this for Joe and I to leave notes to each other in the morning. I write one at night for him to read in the morning and he writes one to me before he leaves for work. Joe left me this note this morning. I love him!

January 4- The girls painted today. J thought it would be fun to paint her sister’s face. They both had a lot of fun!

January 5- J playing dress up. I love that her dress is on inside out and backwards

January 6- Ally, Aiden, the girls and I went to visit Laura and her boys today. The furry pillow on Laura’s couch needed to be used for baby pictures. Miss M is far too cute.

January 7- We got a lot accomplished today. One thing that Joe did was spray paint a computer case for ForgeLAN. It was a boring off white, and now it is black and will soon have cool logos on the sides. Jillian thought she was the coolest getting to watch Daddy spray paint outside.
