Ok so I missed this day for pictures, but I will post a blog for this day just to keep myself honest. I am not going to post a picture just to fill a day, I am going to do this by the book, so please forgive my missing picture, but look forward to seeing the cool pictures to come!

This posting is in honor of my father and grandfather, Josh's Grandpa and Great Grandpa. Even though he never got to meet you in this world, he is channeling you both. I have memories of both my Grandpa and my Dad just hanging around in their white undershirts and wearing dark colored socks. The one day I woke up and without thinking put him in this onesie and grabbed the first pair of socks I could find that fit him. When I took these pictures it sparked the memories.

We love you Paul Sr. and Paul Jr. and we always will!

Ok so I hope that not every picture is of my son during this project, but he is just so darn cute that I cannot help but want to take lots and lots of pictures of him....By the way I will be using a combination of two cameras for this project. My primary camera is a Nikon D40 with an 18-55 mm lens, the other is my small P&S of which I do not have the specifics on it right now but if I post a picture from there I will be sure to let you all know. I love my DSLR camera, I am just a beginner at photos...but this camera makes me feel like I can do anything photographically....with a little practice. I am pretty awesome with Macro shots so I will work on those and perhaps post one in a few days.

Going to be doing some backing up here....bear with me

So I have decided to jump on this Project 365 thing...even though its a little late. So I have to back post a few pictures. This picture was taken on January 13, 2010. We were getting ready to leave for a dinner date with some friends and Joshua was being way too cute. So I snapped a few pictures. This started my interest in the 365 project. I am going to try and do this, if only to keep my blog up to date.

A few pictures of the past few months.

So you thought I forgot about you?

Well I didn't I just have been so crazy busy with my 6 month old (ZOMG) that the time has just slipped by way way too fast. Undoubtedly there has been a lot going on in my life, and it would take me a very long time to go through it all. I am still on meds for PPD, I tried to wean off of them but that did not work so well. I am going to try it again now that the holidays are over. My incision healed up nicely after about 8 weeks, and I spoke to a doctor about the infection and he said that I will not have to worry about it showing up again.

My little guy is getting big, bigger every day. We started feeding him cereal and purees after his 4 month appointment and he is now eating stage 2 foods, as he is a very proficient sitter, and is getting up on all fours and rocking like crazy. He is one of the most laid back happy babies I have ever known, which makes for relatively easy days for me. I do not know what I would have done if I had had a cranky baby, and as my mom says...he is nothing like you were when you were a baby. We had some issues with eczema and it took a while but he seems to have grown out of it now...that was a stressful thing....keeping an infant from scratching is not an easy job.

I know that you just want to see pictures, so I will post a few, and it is my intention (sorry that is the closest thing you will get to a resolution from me) to post blogs more often. I hope that you all are doing well.

To make it easier on me I am going to post pictures in a separate blog.

Ok so I am a sucky blogger

It is just soo hard to find time to blog when I am constantly playing and taking care of my little monkey...I have some time this morning so I will post a quick blog before Josh wakes up. My little man is 3 months old (OMG). And he just woke up.....So much for writing a blog before he is ready to start his day. We have a pretty good routine going, and he is growing lots and learning new things all the time. His giggles and sounds amuse me, and his smile would melt anyones heart. I have a photo to post too. I am going to try and update again soon...
