Project 456

So I have seen many people doing this "project." I thought it would be fun to do it while Jason was gone... Since my camera is attached to my hip anyways I may as well put it to use right!! So about this project. I have only seen it be called Project 365 but since Jason will be gone for 15 months, I named it Project 456!! That is ABOUT how many days are in 15 months..... So the project is to take 1 picture everyday (obviously I take usually more than one a day!) for the whole 456 days. A picture of something that reminds you of that day, or something you did that day. Or whatever you want it to be. Then you just put the story or the reason why you took that pic!! So here is the start of mine....


This really isn't the start but its another pic from when Jason deployed....

Obviously for DAY ONE I took a pic of my cell phone... This thing will be attached to my hip as well now...

Madi was being so cute today. She was so happy and loved on me every minute. If she saw me crying she would come and pat my back and hug me... She is the sweetest thing. So I gave her a bath and then came and laid her down with me.. We got her all bundled up so she would be cozy and warm... This pic reminds me of how she makes me feel!!!

I walked outside this morning on my way to work and saw this image right above me. I thought it was so cool. The first thing that came to my mind was love... Maybe its a sign that Jason is sending from across the miles... (you know XOXO!!) just in case you werent with me on the whole X thing!!

So we bought Madi some new shoes.. I absolutly love them!! I think they are adorable. This girl is potty training right now so she loves to be naked.... She was running around naked with just these shoes on... But of course I didn't want to take a pic of her naked body... So I said do a pose and she went up against the wall and did this with her feet... She cracks me up.... She sure was being awful sassy to me while grandma was on the phone tonight though. But I couldnt help but laugh cuz all I saw was a naked bum and cheetah shoes!!! And now as I speak she is trying on some of my clothes!! But I do have to say that Madi is doing SOOO well with potty training. I can't even take credit for it, cuz she is pretty much teaching herself! I am so proud of her. And when she sees me sit on the pot and hears it she says yeah mom high five!! So stinkin cute!!!

I LOVE THIS IDEA! You look great to Heather, I love your hair dark and short like that! I hope all is going well for you, I know it can't be easy but at least you can keep us all updated via blog and we will be here to support you!

I think that is a great idea also - I need to just put my camera in my purse. We'll see if I can keep it up! Have you heard from Jason - hope all is well!

Wow! It takes someone amazing to have their husband gone for that long! You must have amazing strength!

You really need to check out my website for digital scrapbooking since you are such an awesome photographer. It allows you to put your photos into hardbound books. (Way better than WalMart or Shutterfly!) You could prepare a book for Jason's return.
