12 On The 12th

So here is a fun game that Mommy played along with other fellow bloggers and scrapbookers-even Auntie Tess has been playing along for the past few months. It involves Mommy taking 12 photos to capture our day on the 12th day of the month. If we will play along every month, I am not sure. But it is a great way to remember to get the camera out and document our daily moments. So here we go...12 photos for March 12, 2012!

Photo #1. Eating breakfast. Today you had yogurt, banana bread, strawberries, and milk.

#2. And Mommy was busy doing her makeup while you ate, and you insisted on holding my eyelash curler-and even trying to use it on you eye like you just saw Mommy do! #3. One of your favorite things to do is to "clean". You use the spray bottle to pretend to spray a cleaner, then you use the blanket from your picnic basket to "wipe up" what you are cleaning. #4. Trying to get a quick self-timer shot does not work so well with you anymore-you know that there is an image waiting for you on the back of the camera-so you would much rather look at them then pose for a picture! #5. Mommy checking her email, favorite blogs, and websites. #6. Snuggling in your rocking chair before your nap. This is our little ritual-I will keep it going for as long as you will let me. It helps me feel like you are still a little baby. You like it too, though! And you often put your arms around my neck, or pull my face close to yours. You are such a lovey, snuggly baby and I have always enjoyed that! #7. Snacks. You know the word. You also know what it means when I tell you, "Your snacks are on the table". We always seem to have a snack of some sort on the coffee table for you. Today's afternoon snack was veggie pirate booty, cheese strips, and cut up fruit roll up. #8. Playing downstairs-one of your favorite things to do in the house. We play balls, you practice walking up and down the stairs, sweep, and look for things to get into. #9. You found one of your favorite things to play with while downstairs-CORDS! #10. While downstairs, you love to open Mommy's scrapbook cabinet, pull out my jars of ribbons, clips, and other do-dads and dump them out, and check them out. #11. Daddy came to visit and you love to greet him at the door. You always know the sound of the garage opening. You look at me when you hear it and just say, "Dad!" #12. Daddy stayed long enough tonight to help get you ready for bed. It is a rare thing to get to see him during the week these days since he often works past the time you are in bed, or gets here after we have you all ready. This was a special treat for both of you tonight, and I am glad I got to capture it.
