Let’s Do 52! Higher

What do you do when your 15 month old starts climbing a ladder that is easily 3 times as tall as she is? You grab your camera of course! In all seriousness, you can see how close Daddy is to her, she wasn’t in any real danger, but a...

Let’s Do 52! Determined

Rather than calling this a week late, let’s consider it on time and call it a day, shall we? Okay great! Thanksgiving 2012 will very possibly go down in history as my most favorite Thanksgiving to date. That’s really saying a lot I think since I’ve always loved Thanksgiving...

Let’s Do 52! Helpful

Andrew’s school did a Thanksgiving service project in which each student had to go home and find some sort of helpful chore they could do around the house to earn $0.25. The money was then brought in to school and the class collectively bought turkeys for families who had...

Let’s Do 52! Thankful

*Sigh* Late again. And I was doing so well. Until I got caught up in other things and forgot to take my camera out for an entire week. Yes, I didn’t post last week because I literally didn’t have a single photograph from the whole week. Sad. I could...

Let’s Do 52! Fleeting

Well here we are. Back to back posts on two completely different topics despite the similarity in style. Life is Fleeting. Isn’t it though? Have you ever in your life laid eyes on such a beautiful little butterfly? Me neither 🙂 For Allison’s second Halloween she dressed as essentially...

Let’s Do 52! Heroic

Well it took me 44 weeks to miss a week for no obvious reason like being in another country. But the week we had two weeks ago was downright horrendous and I wasn’t happy with any of the pictures I took. One might suggest just posting something anyway but...

Let’s Do 52! Books

I remember reading this article about a year ago when it first appeared. I saved it because I liked it that much. I knew I’d want to refer back to it someday. Well today is the day. How to get your kid to be a fantastic reader I remember...

Let’s Do 52! Brave

Babies are amazing, aren’t they? They go from being tiny and helpless and relying on you for every single aspect of life to, within about a year, standing up and walking across the room. I get excited over milestones and I think most if not all parents do. I...

Let’s Do 52! Puzzling

We have entered the world of puzzles and board games. I remember back 4 years ago, while trying to entertain Andrew with rattles, balls, and stuffed toys for hours on end, thinking toys were miserably boring. Thankfully the toys have greatly improved over the last few years to the...

Let’s Do 52! Firsts

First airplane ride, first college football game, first time seeing mountains, first time seeing snow, seeing where Daddy went to college. This past weekend was full of firsts for my kiddos. They got to do things that I (short of the first airplane ride) didn’t get to do until...
