POD: Violet and her Crew

From Picture of the Day 2013

Today I have a picture of Violet playing with her expanded princess crew. You might remember Last year I posted a picture of Violet’s Princess Crew. After Christmas and her birthday it’s expanded. When I saw her playing with them I thought it would make a good picture. So I slipped in trying to take a picture before she realized that I was there, and could stop me. It turns out that tonight she liked me taking photos, and even took time to pose them for me.

POD: Doctor Jacob

From Picture of the Day 2013

One of the gifts we got Violet for her birthday was a Doctor Dress-up kit, that had a white coat and scrubs. Both kids loved they doctors outfit and spent Sunday dressed up as doctors playing. Violet wore the white coat and Jacob wore the scrubs. Two things amazed me as I watched them play. The first is that Violet has more or less ‘given’ Jacob the scrubs to ware, second is that over the last day I’ve seen Jacob dressed more in the scrubs then in regular clothes. So I wonder if today’s picture of the day is predicting a possible future career for my little man.

POD: Preparing Canvases for the Party

Tomorrow we celebrate Violet’s fourth birthday. So tonight was a night of prep, cutting the fruits and veggies or the trays. Wee also had to get the canvases ready for one of Melissa’s craft projects she’s planning to do with the kids.  They looks so nice all lined up it seemed like a perfect picture for my picture of the day. Perhaps tomorrow I can manage to get a picture of them all when the kids are done.

POD: Begining to Blog

From Picture of the Day 2013

Today we have a picture of Jacob as he works on writing a  blog post for his new blog.  The blog is still a work in progress so we’re not ready to share a link to it, but he’s really proud of it. Each night he sits down and works on  a post. To be fair, I only set it up for him Monday, so we’ll see how long his interest lasts. Once we’re done with all the setup and tweaking I’ll be sure to share a link to it here.
