In order to fit all of the layouts into a bound book, I will have to a week onto a single page rather than a two page layout from time to time. Two weeks left, and then I am all caught up. Yeah!

Almost caught up

P365 Layouts
I know I am an entire week (okay more than a week) behind on posting. I wanted to finish my layouts before I posted. I will probably just post layouts for last week and this week, and then go back to daily posting after I catch up. Well here are the layouts so far, for my 2009 book. The bottom three are two page spreads. Enjoy!

Jan 28 - 30
28/365 - A quick stop at the donut shop before we went to the Montessori school to turn in our enrollment paperwork. Cambry will be going to school 2 days a week for now, until I go back to work.
"Where the Road Leads"
29/365 - I had an interview today at a great real estate appraisal firm. My childcare plans backfired and Boston ended up coming to the interview with me. He was quite the charmer. Later in the day, Cambry and I went to the park by our house. (Photo courtesy of the auto timer setting on my camera.) It was her idea that I ride the slide repeatedly with her. It was a blast though. We stayed long enough to watch the sunset.
30/365 - Joe's new parter's wife invited us to their home for a play date today. We had a wonderful time. It was refreshing to spend time with an adult. (Joe is still gone.) Cambry jumped on a trampoline for the first time, and even helped to make cupcakes.
So I tried, and tried, and tried to get this shot to come out. It is a shot of the moon and the lone star, straight up and slightly left. It was stunning in the sky - my photo skills (or lack there of) did not justice to this incredible site. I will work on it.

January 26 - 27
26/365 - This is a photo of one of Cambry's P-L-T sandwiches. I believe I eat about 10 or 15 of these a day. She is quite the aspiring chef.
Today we washed the car outside and then went to watch the planes at the airport.
27/365 - My darling little guy and I had an oh so silly time laughing together today. When I finally stopped laughing, he too stopped, and this was the face he gave me.
Here is Cambry walking through the mall, talking on my cell phone to Grandma.

25/365
Through my 25 days of photos for this project, I have a new found love of trees. This is a awesome tree I saw today, against the overcast sky.
Confession (another blonde moment): So the pictures I posted before of the new restaurant, they are not actually the new restaurant. Hey, they said the restaurant was on the corner behind the bank, and to think I doubted the contractor when he told me the building I was photographing was Broncos. What would he know. She here is the actual new location. It is just as stunning as the corner previously photographed, but this side is clearly visible from the freeway and is right off the exit. On the web site it reports that some 500,000 vehicles pass by this exit daily. We had a great day today with Papa Joe. This is his only day off during his close to three week stint. He came back to Houston so we didn't get to visit Austin - yet. We also didn't get to go on the much anticipanted 'cue run. ('cue = Texan for BBQ) It was nice to be at home though, and I was able to wash his laundry without a roll of quarters.

22/365 (FAM) Sorry for the incorrect direction on the photo. Blogger has been giving me grief when I upload photos lately. I tried everything I could to fix it. If you can shed some light on this, I would appreciate it.
Today I just had to have one picture of each little one. I love sleeping babies! "Drink it up...yeah man that's the good stuff." Cambry loves to take a bath in our huge (really huge) master tub. She had been taking showers at our old house for probably six months now. At the new house, the showers don't really allow me to get her clean without drenching myself (not set up for co-showering either). None-the-less, we are back to baths. She called for me today saying, "Look Mommy, I wrote my name." You can't tell in the picture, but she had letters wrapped 3/4 the way around the tub. "C-A-M-B-R-Y, Cambry," she finished.
23/365 "Missing the Snow" Thanks to Laura's stunning snow scene photo from back home, posted on her blog yesterday, I now totally miss the snow. You will never hear Joe say that, but it's in my blood. Here is a picture of the pine tree out front, all green and lush. I can't help but think something is missing. (P.S. it was 78 degrees here today. Nice I know, but not when you miss the snow.)
"Missing Pap Joe" - (no explanation needed)
24/365 (CME)
This is a photo of my Kombucha Juice bottle. (Thanks for the recommendation Matt!) Kombucha is known for it incredible health benefits. After I took my first sip, I was immediately 'turned off' (read: repulsed). I had to hit the web and get educated to see if this was even going to be worth choking down everyday. Although most people believe Kombucha to be a mushroom (including the Whole Foods dietary expert who directed me to the juice's location in the store), Kombuca is actually a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast, fermented with sugar and tea (usually Chinese tea) for 30 days to make the finished Kombucha juice product. (Who, three hours of research put into one lovely sentence for your reading pleasure.) After going back through out the day for a few more sips, the stuff kind of grew on me. It has this strange effervescence to it, although not a carbonated beverage (due to the fermentation I imagine). I decided I needed to be drinking the 95% Kombucha and 5% juice as I could not stomach the raw, 100% product. I loathe beer, which is exactly what the smell reminds me of. However, the less nauseating juice/juice blend actually reminds me of Framboise, Lambic beer - if you have ever had the pleasure. (I am not quite sure why I just told you all that. It's my new adventure I guess, so why not share.)
24/365 (FAM)
Today we went to a Pre-K fair to explore our school options for Cambry. After she woke up this morning, I told her our plan and explained that Cinderella would be there. She had her bath, and then asked me to fix her hair for her. I just combed it and put a barrette in it, not knowing what she was after. "How does it look?" she asked. I of course told her she look beautiful. "Do you think 'Sin-umbrella' will like it?" she continued. When we arrived, Cambry was fascinated with Cinderella. She spent most of her time talking with her, telling a million stories. (Check out the family blog for more photos - http://www.beachboundband.blogspot.com/)
