Today went pretty much the same way most Saturdays go. Slow and simple.
Here's a look at my Saturday.

Because DJ was back home with this, Thursday felt like a more realistic and complete sample of our every day. I took less photos today than any other day, but still loving the project.
Here's a look at how my Thursday went.

Last time I took part in this project I remember beginning to feel a little burned out around this time, but I'm feeling great. Documenting the everyday is kind of my jam.
Here's a look at how my Wednesday went.
And I made it through Monday unscathed! I actually already love seeing how my days are different from when I did this project last year. Mainly, I now work full-time and DJ spends 2 days with his grandparents and 3 day in daycare. And Dom now works a full-time job in addition to his real estate work. Basically, we're all a lot more busy than we were back in October/November.
Here's a little look at my Tuesday.

My son spends Mondays and Tuesdays with his grandparents each week and I try to use those days to work on my spreads, Project Life designs and basically anything business/creative related. Well, I got a heck of a lot of work done this week, including completing my Week in the Life album, so I have something fun to share!
I'm excited to share a video overview of my completed 2014 Week in the Life album this morning.
Please let me know if you have any questions and I will do my very best to answer them below.

point in time.

Well, I did it. I made it through the entire week and I'm oh so glad that I did. What #weekinthelife and Ali Edwards have taught me is that everyone has a story to tell, no matter what your days look like, no matter the size or shape of your family. I'm so very grateful to her for being such an incredible inspiration.
Here is a look at our Sunday.

Saturday began so peacefully. I was up before everyone else as usual and decided to try and capture what the house feels like at that time of the day.
As the day went on, it was obvious that it was going to be one of those days, where your kid is grumpy, you have very little energy and not enough time to get done what needs to be done.
I was happy to curl up with my hubby at the end of the night and watch a movie in bed to finish off the night.

I felt like a bit of a fraud yesterday in that we did something that really only happens a few times a year: we took the jet ski out to the lake. The opportunity came up and we took it! I complain about the heat a lot here in Vegas but I promise you, I wasn't complaining about being on the water in 89 degrees yesterday! Plus, with Halloween and all, it wasn't truly an average day. Oh well!
Here's a little peek at our Friday.

Today was the first day that struggled a little with documenting. We didn't do much, which of course means it was a perfectly average day, the kind that I really do want to document.
Here's a little peek at our Thursday.

DJ spends Monday and Tuesday with his grandparents, so for the past two days it felt super strange documenting life without him. There was no doubt in my mind that when he was back home with us that I would be taking a lot more photos.
Here's a peek at our Wednesday.

Despite it being a work day, I feel like I did a much better job of photographing the day than I did yesterday. Day two, feeling great! Here's a peek into my Tuesday.

What a day! I had so much to do, and I'm happy to say that I was able to get the vast majority of it done, all while playing along in the #weekinthelife fun. Here's a little peek into my day:
Morning selfie.
Diving into the laundry.
Californication on Netflix.
Work work work.
A call from mom.
An etsy order.
Happy mail.
A trip to Hobby Lobby for more yarn.
A quick dinner on my own.
Thoughts on today: I didn't take enough photos.
