Project 366: Days 1-7

1/5/2016

2 Comments

 
A new year. A new year of possibilities and goals and ideas and changes. I'm always a little anxious about the new year because I look back on the one we left behind and realize how much changed in just that one year. Some good and some bad. Our exciting baby announcement, but also the loss of my grandmother. The unknown is such a terrifying concept, this not having any idea what lies before us but pushing forward just the same. What will 2016 bring us? Will it be a year of joy and celebration, or will there be great trials as well. Either way, we must jump into 2016 headfirst, and this little curly haired moptop makes that jump so much easier. In 5 weeks, her sister will be here too, and what joy and craziness that will bring!

In 2015, my 365 project focused on Erin Hensley's Finding the Light monthly themes. I followed them to the letter each and every day except in December, but my 365 project also focused every day on my daughter. This year, I am still participating in Erin's themes, but my 365 project will not rely on them. I'm going to ease up and just use my 366 project (it's a leap year!) to photograph my daughters. I cannot wait to uncover the possibilities of photographing their individual growth, but also the growth of their relationship.

To each and every one of you, I wish you a 2016 full of happiness and joy and love and health.

1.366 We bought this hat at Walgreens on New Year's Eve, and you wore it around the store, refusing to take it off. We went to our friends' house that night, and you had so much fun playing with all of the kids that I found you in their basement running in circles and screaming and laughing all by yourself. Your joy was uncontainable, the best way to start the new year.

2.366 We were looking out the window in your nursery, when you started making silly faces. Lately, you've been cracking yourself up over silly sounds and faces until hiccups overcome you.

3.366 Your daddy bought you a plush lamb doll when you were born, and it sat on your dresser for the longest time, but one day you decided that when you're sleepy, the lamb and your blankie are nearby.

5.366 We've had an unseasonably warm winter, with not a flake of snow since the one day in November. Today you awoke to find that it was snowing, and it was beautiful to see even if it last only a couple of hours.

6.366 My two girls. "Where's the baby?" I asked. "Hi Baby," you said and hugged my belly.

7.366 Mommy's big craving is anything with peanut butter and chocolate. Whenever you hear the clink of the candy jar, you know there are peanut butter M&Ms nearby. You come running over to me, signing and saying, "Please. Help." Who can resist sharing a small bite for such a sweet request?
