sweet peas and other things » the family behind sweet pea photography

I’ve been a blog-slacker lately, I admit it.  (Thanks mom, for the reminder….) So here’s a quick review of what we did in January!

– Belated Christmas gathering with my family at my parents’ house — which actually turned into a weekend filled with fun activities (visiting friends in Chicago, watching Kevin in sketchfest, dinner with other friends in the city, and even going out to a movie! Wow!)

– Averhy has a (barely) loose tooth.  She’s excited about it, and it’s making me feel old.

– Eden is getting better and better at talking.  “Cinderella” is now a word that most people can understand when she says it… and I miss her old way of saying “Cin-da-la-le-la-leh”

– I went to Nashville for three days, for a photography convention.  Julie came down to our house to stay with the girls, and they had a good time (of course!) — including a special trip to the movie theater to see “The Princess and The Frog”

– Averhy completed a roller-skating unit in P.E. at school, and had a great time — except when one of her classmates (“he’s the fastest skater”) would whiz by her, she would always fall down as a preventative measure to avoid getting knocked over.

– Eden still enjoys going to her “class” while I go to Body and Soul or Time Out 4 Moms – and now she prefers walking down the hall and into her classrooms all by herself. Such a big girl!

– I decided to set my pride (and low pain-tolerance) aside and finally join Sky’s gym – Momentum – and it’s actually going well!  I think we’re both pleasantly surprised (and relieved!)

– I’ve also been a slacker at taking pictures since finishing my 365 project at the end of December.  The year-long project for 2010 is to take a short video of our family (mainly the girls) every day, and we’re keeping up pretty well with it. The challenge now is to actually upload and post the videos, instead of just letting them sit on the camera! Maybe I do need to get a Flip, just to make it easier… 🙂
