Welcome back to another addition of my Project Life pictures. I had to set this up on Monday, so there was no chance I would forget to post it on Tuesday. These are pictures from Sunday, January 9th through Saturday January 14th.
Sunday, January 9th: The boys creating what will someday be a famous piece of artwork. I do have to thank Crayola for making WASHABLE crayons. I don't know how parents survived before that concept. I have already cleaned crayon off the couch, my laptop and their face, who knows where it will pop up next!
Tuesday, January 11th: We got snow overnight, maybe three or four inches. Most of the schools in the area were closed. Pretty sad, if you ask me! But I guess they have so many snow days scheduled... And I posted another picture of the day, the total destruction of the toy room. Usually it will stay this way until they go to bed, because if I try to pick up, then a few minutes later it will look like this again.
Wednesday, January 12th: Happy birthday Daddy! We got to celebrate with a sick Ryan. Both boys have been getting over a cold they got right after Christmas, and this one was a whopper! It just takes forever to get over (we personally know, because everyone in the family got it!). Ryan got better, but then was badly congested and coughing again today. He didn't get a nap at all and was up that night coughing too. Thankfully Matthew got over the second part of this cold pretty fast, so I am hoping the same will be true for Ryan.
Thursday, January 13th: Ryan is still very congested and coughing a lot, especially when he lays down, but he is sleeping better. I felt bad about waking him up from his afternoon nap, but I found out that if he sleeps too late, he will not go to bed easily at night. The boys found a box of Ziploc bags tonight after dinner, and made a complete mess with those. But at least they were having fun.
Friday, January 14th: Ryan looks much better and sounds better too. He will still have the runny nose for a while, but at least the coughing is getting better. My new Adobe Elements came in today, Merry Christmas to me! I had been working with version 2 before this, and version 9 just came out this fall. So it was time for a software upgrade. I have been using this to edit my pictures, and make the digital scrapbook pages a few days ago.
Saturday, January 15th: Matthew has been hiding around the house recently, especially when it is time to eat, and he doesn't want to. His first place was in the laundry room, behind the baskets of laundry. And today he found a new place while running around on the couch, behind the couch cushion. As you can see, neither of these places are "good" hiding places, since he is pretty easy to spot, but it is fun to try and "find" him.
Have a wonderful week!
