Project 365: Day 16 (January 16)

Giant Eagle in Green, Ohio. Once my birthday is done, the holiday season is officially over. Today we got back to our regular routine, which today, includes a trip to our local grocery store. Daniel is obsessed with the big boy carts so he was quite happy to see this one.

Day 15 (January 15): My 39th birthday! I had a fabulous day, spending time with my boys during the day, and celebrating with my small group (Bible study) at night. Growing up in Minnesota, many, MANY birthday parties were cancelled due to weather. This is many the 5th time I celebrate on my actual birthday.

Project 365: Day 14 (January 14)

Home. Nearly seven years after my brain injury, and three years, two months, one week, and six days after I applied, I finally received this letter from SSA. I am happy, grateful, relieved and a bit sad. I'd rather have my health, but this helps.

Project 365: Day 13 (January 13)

Dr. Cortesi's Office in Green, OH. Joe Cool gets prepped for his first visit with the dentist. He giggled all through the cleaning with "the tickler," then cried when the dentist counted his teeth. And yes, he'll need braces and his frenulum lasered. Better start saving...

Home. Mommy's little sous-chef has very definite ideas about what we should cook. No matter how many time I tell him that the pantry is "Mommy's toybox," he can't keep himself away.

Home. Daniel watches the snow come down. He's very attached to his sippy and always drinks his milk this way.

Project 365: Day 10 (January 10)

Home. Our first day home all day without Daddy. Daniel is all about trains. Here's his set on a rare break from play.
