-
- Day 7 | Project 365
-

-
- Day 13 | Project 365 Yes, that is my child running as fast as he can the wrong way up the escalator at IKEA, completely ignoring my command to “COME BACK DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!”. Sigh.
-
- Day 14 | Project 365
-
- Day 15 | Project 365 They were all fighting over the bottom of the pile!
-

-
- Day 17 | Project 365 I can’t believe he’s tall enough to reach inside the mailbox!

-
- Day 21 | Project 365
-
- Day 22 | Project 365 This was from our last snow day. We got at least 6 inches today, but it was too chilly for Isaac to stay out long and get any good pictures. I just love how he was trying to ride his tricycle in the snow
-
- Day 23 | Project 365
-
- Day 24 | Project 365 My little kitchen helper loves “doing the dishes”. (I haven’t even finished priming all the wood trim in the house, but I already love how much brighter it looks!)
-
- Day 25 | Project 365 Love my boys ❤
-
- Day 26 | Project 365 Chris had his first day off since Christmas! We’ve been enjoying it, and Isaac can’t get enough of Daddy. We were enjoying a dinner out at our favorite Indian restaurant, and Isaac and Chris were telling each other jokes. Isaac told some funny ones, and we both laughed. Chris told one, and Isaac put his face in his hand, looked bored, and told him, “Daddy, that doesn’t make any sense”.
-
- Day 27 | Project 365
-
- Day 28 | Project 365 Isaac’s favorite thing at the mall…other than the train :).
-
- Day 29 | Project 365 Daddy gets a new treadmill and Isaac gets a giant box to play “airplane bus” with. Everybody wins.

-
- ay 31 | Project 365 My favorite grocery shopping buddy
-
- Day 32 | Project 365 Isaac spent most of the Super Bowl squooshing himself in between all the men and their ladies ;).
-
- Day 33 | Project 365
-
- Day 34 | Project 365 Today was one of those days. I always threaten (jokingly…mostly) to put him in a “baby straight jacket” and today he said, “Yeah, put me in a straight jacket, Mama!” Well, alrighty then.
-
- Day 35 | Project 365 Very, very rarely, I can get him to sit still. Not longer than 5 or 10 seconds usually, but I’ll take what I can get!
-
- Day 36 | Project 365 “Where’d Mimi go??”
-
- Day 37 | Project 365 Today we visited the B&O Railroad Museum in Baltimore. I can’t wait to go back next month when they start giving train rides again!!
-
- Day 38 | Project 365 Here’s another one from our visit to the train museum in Baltimore yesterday. This is the top of the roundhouse dome. It was so beautiful!
-
- Day 39 | Project 365 He can swim half the length of the pool now, and according to his instructor his breathing is pretty good :).
-
- Day 40 | Project 365 Today was a big day! The plumbers *finally* started the massive job that’s been waiting since right after Christmas.
-
- Day 41 | Project 365 Some days (okay, every day), he needs a LOT more physical activity than I can provide at home. It’s so hard to wear this kid out!
-
- Day 42 | Project 365
-

-
- Day 44 | Project 365

-
- Day 47 | Project 365 At least someone is enjoying the pile of rubble that used to be our driveway.
-
- Day 48 | Project 365 Got out the tripod today to get some pics with my sweet boy.
-
- Day 49 | Project 365 We finally invested in a snowblower this year. We don’t necessarily get tons of snow, but with a 300 yard driveway, my poor husband always breaks his back trying to get just enough cleared to get the cars up the hilly section. Now he can clear the whole thing and barely break a sweat!
-
- Day 50 | Project 365 Chris is working from home for the next few weeks and Isaac is beyond thrilled to have Daddy around so much.

-
- Day 52 | Project 365 Warming each other up by the fire on a cold, snowy day.
-
- Day 53 | Project 365 I can’t pick just one favorite from yesterday, because it was Isaac’s first time bowling! He had a BLAST. And almost beat us both. Chris pulled ahead in the very last frame.
-
- Victory dance!
-
- Day 54 | Project 365 Snack time!
-
- Day 55 | Project 365 He so desperately wants to go to school. He wore this backpack on our walk today with a few toys and a roll of painters tape inside. “I’ve got everything I need in it, Mommy. Just in case.”
-
- Day 56 | Project 365 Every time I turn around, he’s got his pants down so he can warm his bits in front of the fire. This morning was especially hilarious, because I walked into the room and he’s dancing in front of the fire singing, “Oh Mommy, you’re so fine. You’re so fine you blow my mind. Hey Mommy!” Lol. I told him to pull his pants up, and he told me, “My penis is all warmed up but my bottom is still cold.”
-
- Day 57 | Project 365 More snow today!
-
- Day 58 | Project 365

-
- Day 84 | Project 365 Costco started selling these mini bottles of Pellegrino, and Isaac was thrilled. “They’re just my size!!!” He’s just like Daddy, leaving open bottles of sparkling water all over the house, except his are way cuter 😉 . And yes, I know it’s ridiculous that I’m buying Pellegrino for a three year old…lol.

-
- Day 93 | Project 365 He wanted to pitch in and help the plumbers.

-

-
- Day 137 | Project 365 He was so excited to get some new “Army toys”! He’s obsessed with all things military, and keeps asking if he’s old enough to join the Army now that he’s four. Not even close, buddy. He doesn’t always believe me.
-
- Day 138 | Project 365 I looked outside, didn’t see him playing on the driveway, stepped onto the front porch and looked left. And this is what I saw. He was trying to drink from the hummingbird feeder. LOL

- Day 139 | Project 365 Somebody had his very first riding lesson this week.
-
- Day 140 | Project 365 Rainy day

-
- Day 141 | Project 365 He loved the card he picked out for Daddy’s birthday so much that he made me read it to him over and over in the store,and was almost beside himself when Daddy opened it. “It’s a Daddy bear hugging his baby bear!” “Love you, Daddy ❤ On your shoulders, on your lap, Side by side to take a nap, Squeezing, cuddling, hugging, too, I'm so glad my daddy's YOU!"
