100 days of happiness...day 50

I'm halfway there...I wasn't sure what to write about, that was until I emptied the bag from daycar and saw the million pieces of art that Tabs brought home today. She loves to color and be creative! Last year when I saw the artwork piling up I wasn't sure what to do with it all. It's all lovely (most of it) but I just don't have the space to keep it, so I decided that I would take a picture of each masterpiece and then put together a photo book. I then felt better about throwing out the pieces (however I did keep a few of my favorites). It worked so great, so I decided to do that again this year. I'll make a photo book at the end of the year, but until then I'm just trying to keep up on taking the pictures. Here are some samplings of her work!

10 days of happiness...day 49

This picture makes me laugh. This is what happens after a no nap, Target and swimming filled day will do.

100 days of happiness...day 48

Smells...it's amazing how one scent can bring you back in time. Tonight I was looking for diapers to bring for a baby shower game for some coworkers. I had a few unpackaged diapers but found an unused half package of newborn sized diapers. Opening the package to get them out I immediately smelled the freshness and baby like scent the diapers possessed. And, because they are the same brand they use at the hospital it reminded me of our time there with both kids when they were born and also reminded me how quickly they are growing up.

It was a day of firsts....

Jake's first shopping cart ride as a big boy.

Then it was our first swim in the pool this summer! Yay!

100 days of happiness...day 46

Tonight, after dinner, we all sat on the patio listening tousic and watching Tabs dance. It was the perfect evening for just hanging out! What a great end to a productive day!
