Another new thing I want to commit to this year? Taking more pictures. (Some may think I already take too many, but they’d be wrong.) I know I already mentioned it, but I’m still so excited I’ll say it again – I got a new camera for Christmas! And I’m so excited that it makes me want to take pictures constantly. I thought it would be fitting to do my first Project 365 post for today’s #iPPP since I got the idea from Greta. Between my new camera and my phone, I should always be able to manage at least one picture every day, right?
January 1:
The only picture I took…was of dinner. Exciting, I know. It was delicious though (Honey Parmesan Pork Roast in the crockpot).
January 2:
Um, yeah. Also only a picture of my food. We’re trying to start the new year off with more healthy habits, so I’ve been a little food focused. This was Cilantro Lime Chicken in the crockpot.
January 3:
Brinky looking so cute at the window when we were waiting for our new washing machine to arrive since ours rudely broke after only three years. Related, I don’t recommend a Maytag Centennial washer. (Lee asks that you ignore the rust on the blinds – it upsets him.)
January 4:
Reagan studying for the big school spelling bee on Friday!
January 5:
On stage at the spelling bee! If I can brag for a moment…she got second place! A third grader in the third through fifth grade spelling bee! I was so impressed with her spelling and her clear speaking into the microphone. Everyone cheered when she spelled “baccalaureate” correctly. The word she missed (so we’ll remember it for all time) was “equanimity” – a tough one.
January 6:
I just realized my days are totally off, but I’m going to keep going anyway because I apparently missed a day. Jenny, making a rare appearance around her family because she had to make French food for her quarterly French project.
For the record, these potatoes were really tasty. And healthy (covered in bacon, cream, and cheese).
January 7:
Brinkley wondering why I didn’t stop him when he resorted to eating pudding with his hands. I wondered the same thing.
That’s it for week 1! We’ll see if I can keep it going. Linking up with Greta and Julie for the first #iPPP of the new year:

Oh, thank you! Some days I can hardly handle Brinky’s cuteness
I have heard much about the suckage of the Maytag. Geez, get it together people! The internet is not making you look good.
I love when you do picture-packed posts because catching a glimpse into your family life always makes me think that I could totally do three kids one day – it looks so…complete.
Oh, you could definitely do it! Especially if you wait for the first two to get old enough to help
It’s because sometimes kids are cute when they are messy…until you have to clean yogurt off your couch….not that I’d know about that…ahem.

Better than cleaning puke off the couch. Just saying.
All of that food looks SO good. And Brinky is handsome, as always! Way to go, Reagan! Even without the blog, she’ll probably remember that word forever. I still remember the word that I got kicked out of the county bee on.
I still remember the word I went out on in the county spelling bee too
And the food WAS good!
Congrats on placing in the bee!!! That’s awesome – great pics, too!

We used cheddar cheese because my store didn’t have any fancy French cheese for an amount I was willing to pay, and it was very tasty
YES to the pots.
YES to cute kids.
YES to spelling bees.
So glad you are back in the #ippp
Thanks, Farrah!
I am aaaaalllll in on the food photos. And I wouldn’t be mad if you shared the recipes. Just saying.
Also glad that my kiddo’s not the only one who gets the “MOM. YOU LET ME GET MY HANDS DIRTY.” face. Such a cutie – all of them. And YAY spelling bee! *smart kiddos dance*
