Have I mentioned lately how much I love this project? Once a month is about my speed & I'm especially loving the "day in the life" documentation! I'm already dreaming about the 144 page 2011 book I'll print up in December.
01. Charlotte's started "reading" to Isaac. He insists on holding the book & randomly turning pages. Charlotte's also learning some patience!
02. My desk. This is a normal, daily view. I see now that I need something pretty to hold all the papers waiting their turn for my attention.
03. Toddler fingers and toes. Still a little bit chubby (& most definitely irresistible), but a glimpse of the boy he'll soon be!
04. The 12of12 reminded me to get out my Easter decorations. I have about three total, but Stella was really into them.
05. My electronic brain. Really, what would I do without my iphone?
06. Charlotte at preschool. This girl loves it there, but can NOT stop talking about kindergarten. It's hard to believe I'll have 3 kids in elementary school come September!
07. Trader Joe's loot. Isaac sacrificed his noon nap for milk and eggs.
08. After school pick up and piano for Berk, it was homework time.
09. Tuesday is the day I do the most taxi-ing around town. Isaac rarely falls asleep in the car, but I'm so glad I had my camera close by when he did.
10. Signs of spring. The hydrangea by the front door are sprouting. Can't wait to enjoy those big, beautiful blooms soon!
11. Berk's love for basketball lives on. After a team practice, he was outside for more shooting.
12. The normally brown hills are green and dotted with these yellow mustard plants. I look forward to this yellow and green month all year long! Pretty.
Spring is officially here. That means my favorite season is just around the corner!

Hi there! I came over from Amy's blog - wanted to check out some other 12of12er's! What a lovely glimpse into your day. I have realized I have NO Easter decorations - gotta change that! And those sweet toddler hands and feet - oh, it all changes much too fast. And hydrangeas are my favorite...
