Week 5: Project 365/cards

I updated all my 365 posts to the date instead of "day 1", etc. Its easier to keep track. One thing I'm also going to do is keep track of what the kids say and write it down also to put in the 365 journal.

Sun, Jan 25: Reading the 2nd book in the Twilight series (which I finished today). I used to be such a bookworm and then I kinda stopped about 6 years ago...I wonder why? LOL! Seriously never had the time after I became a mom...plus scrapbooking kinda took over my free time.

Mon, Jan 26: I was playing ball down the basement stairs with Aydan after work. He was sitting on the landing and I was at the bottom. We were having so much fun. I grabbed out the camera and the crying began. But Kendall continued on with his role, so I got a picture of her. Notice her Dora earmuffs...more about that later.


Tues, Jan 27: Aydan was on the potty...cute pics, just don't want to put them on the internet.

Wed, Jan 28: My office at work. I mostly spend my time in the department with my co-workers, students, and patients. I love to get away and get some work done...its so quiet here!

Thurs, Jan 29: Kendall's newest thing is scuba diving during her bubble bath. She puts her whole face in...I always pay attention to make sure I can hear her breathing. LOL!

Friday, Jan 30: Superbowl pools from both of our jobs...tradition for both of us. One year I won $500 for the third and final because the scores didn't change! Wish us luck!

Sat, Jan 31: The temperture actually rose to the 30's today(can you say "heatwave"?) so Ozan took a shot at cooking some hamburgers and salmon on the grill in the snow! LOL! Mmmm the hamburgers were good...I don't like salmon.

Here are some random pics I'm going to use for some empty days I had from previous weeks.

Mon, Jan 19: I purchased some vinyl wall words for the house from Once Upon a Design. They have super cute stuff and they are very inexpensive. This one is for above the stove.

Sat, Jan 17: Kendall wears these huge Dora ear muffs ALL THE TIME around the house. She's not cold, she just likes to dress up!

And a few cards I made. this one is for valentine's day for Ozan. I was inspired by two talented ladies: Nicole Magouirk and Robyn Werlich. Its kind of a cross lift.

This Wednesday, my baby girl turns 6 :( I love 5 so much, I don't want it to end. There's a transperancy butterfly on there but its hard to see.

And a birthday card for my BFF daughter, who turns 9. Just a simple card, nothing fancy! I wanted to use my MM foam stamps...they were getting lonely.
