I’m taking a picture a day – everyday – in 2012. You can see proof at 365 week 1 and 365 week 2.
(Trying to get kitties in the picture. Cat wrangling is almost as hard as cat herding)
This week I used my Canon. Poor lonely thing that doesn’t get out much in the Winter.
(Ferocious cradle stealing lion)
Also based upon these pictures, we pretty much never left the house. Except to visit preschools.
(Doting mother after she kicked the cat out.)
Do you remember those days where you would just rather stay home to contain the pee at home?
Maybe it’s been awhile since you’ve had a two year old in your house. I would rent mine out but I think I would miss her.
(Mad Panda – oh little panda why so sad – you have an amazing room of your own now)
I was suppose to leave today for a weekend conference. I didn’t go because it actually snowed and I’m a Winter driving wimp.
(Early morning breakfast and cartoons)
I tell you what though – do I have an organizational tip for you. If you want to get your fridge full, bills paid, house cleaned, litter scooped, laundry done and put away, floors mopped, and meals planned – just get ready to leave on a trip away from your family. Holy crap did I get it into gear in preparation for my departure.
And now I don’t have to lift a finger all weekend because everything is DONE. So anyway, every Thursday just pretend you are leaving your family on Friday for a long weekend. Trust me – everything will be done around the house in record time.
(It finally snowed. Sometimes I think God really listens to me. Scary)
It’s like wouldn’t it be nice to know what day you are going to die so you can make sure the fridge is full and the litter is scooped before you go? Or maybe you are one of those who would get a manicure and have wine with a friend? I’m not sure I could die without the laundry put away.
Happy Weekend.

I so wish I started this 365 day project…can I pro-rate it? hehe. Love that panda hat (and the face!)
I just love your photos! The last one is awesome.
You are home! You should have come down for wine….So since you are home do you want to join the girls and I today (since you already had Astrid taken care), or do you think they just want a Kristi day? See you at 11:30!
What great pictures! I love them all, but now I’m obsessed with getting one like your last one!
Love your pictures..and advice. What I do when I want the whole house oganized and clean is invite people over. Like my house has been a disaster for weeks..so I am inviting all of Serenas classmates over for a girly movie night next weekend….. looking forward to a clean house!!! It works!!!
Gorgeous photos! That picture of your little girl kissing her baby is so sweet.
Beginning your weekend with everything DONE? And then it snows so you have to relax and eat cupcakes and cuddle under blankets with the television on? (Or reading. Yes. I suppose you could read, yes?)
That’s the stuff right there.
Almost as good as sitting around in your underwear.
Which I suppose you could also do.
If your blankets are warm enough.
Oh my goodness, that last shot is amazing! Actually they all are, you should definitely use your Canon more often, you have a gift, lady!!
Such a great feeling to have everything DONE!!
That lion looks seriously ferocious!
I want her big girl undies. Those are the most fashionable I’ve seen.
Sorry you didn’t get to your conference, but I know what you mean about managing to get a ton done in preparation for being gone. Hope you get to relax all weekend since you got all that taken care of!
Stunning photos, as always, Tracy!
And guess what? We’re staying home to keep all of the pee here, too! Diaper-free here we come! Yippppyyy!
xo
The cat in the cradle in hysterical! I’m a little bit jealous of keeping the pee pee there – I’m still in potty training hell.
I love all of these pictures. I am so grateful for the pictures as I can see the girls changing daily! Astrid in her big girl panties:)
The last photo was my favorite. I wish I had known about the 365 project earlier, I would have definitely done it.
Also, did you somehow get more snow than me? I mean Woodbury is only like 10 minutes away and I wouldn’t qualify this as SNOW, more so a white dusting. I can even see the tops of my grass sticking out.
Love that you guys started Pinterest social savvy! I just subscribed. And these pictures? Such a good representation of life – but I love your captions with them.
What a wonderful slice of life! And that last photo is gorgeous!!
I <3 that last photo, the action shot in the snow, truly.
And I'm sorry you didn't make it to your conference. I'm at work right now, I've been here since 6, but I just found out that the roads have caused my office to, technically, open at 10am. Being a winter-driving-wimp would have meant more sleep.
I miss sleep.
I ADORE those weeks where I have all the house chores done before the weekend. Who likes to waste precious weekend time cleaning and folding laundry? Not I!
