January 10 on 10

Happy New Year!

In November, I started a project with some fellow photographers called 10 on 10. Each month on the 10th, I will be sharing a series of 10 images from a typical day. Here is the first one for 2012, January's 10 on 10:

Grandpapa loves to buy lots of little gizmos and gadgets for the kids for Christmas. Two such presents were this speech bubble dry erase board and the other was a balloon animal kit. Something tells me the boy had a few scary moments with bursting balloons.

tooth fairy
The tooth fairy forgot to visit the little miss on the appropriate day (epic fail on my part).

S did not seem to be too upset by the tooth fairy's tardiness.

I realized yet again that my kids love their Nanna's cooking. I need to step up my game and learn how to prepare a few of my mommy's authentic Italian recipes (like ravioli).

Hubby trying his best to book a family getaway for Spring Break. Not going to happen. :(

We are yet again behind in our weekly Faith First assignments. My kids wonder why, and then I remind them that it's because they always give me enough grief after school with their regular homework that I am not in the mood to fight with them for completing these workbooks.
catechism
I often wonder why I even bother with this, I am not exactly the most devout Catholic. And Lord knows I do not agree with a lot of the religion part (the faith part I am okay with).

Love that we can go swimming in winter when we visit Grandmama and Grandpapa.
booyah!
My 9 year old actually used the term "booyah" this weekend. Oh yes he did!

  1. I so enjoy the quality of light in your photos. As you know, I'm no photographer, just an enjoyer of photography - but your photos, especially of the kids, always seem to have warm, kind, tender light quality to them. They're lovely. I think spring break getaway will also not be working for us this year - turns out a family of 5 is a PITA to book for.... ;)

  2. Oh I love these! That tooth box is so cute. Jealous that you get to swim in winter, our pool is freezing.
    And giggle at his sign.

  5. Oh these are so great! I love the underwater ones and the one from below your husband! I agree about the Italian cooking - coming from an Italian cook!! ;-). And... umm.... I had the same *epic-fail* with the tooth fairy with my oldest. And it unfortunately became the unwinding of all the childhood myths!! :(
