day 19: January 19th 2014



This baby loves her baths.  I am pretty sure it may be her most favorite time of day (other than when she is eating of course).  

day 18: January 18th 2014

Basketball season is in full swing again.  This kid is in heaven.

day 17: January 17th 2014

A preview of what is to come in the next five years...

day 16: January 16th 2014

(This is quickly turning into 365 days of Remi... oh well!)

Little lady had her two month check up today.  She is 11 pounds 12 ounces and growing like a weed.  She is also sick.  With RSV of all things.  Poor baby.  The doctor wanted to get her lungs x-rayed to make sure she does not have pneumonia.  Luckily, the scans came back clear and we just need to watch her extra closely to make sure she does not struggle breathing.  



day 15: January 15th 2014



We are having sleep issues with little miss.  She refuses to sleep on her back.  We have spent days trying to train her with no luck.  The girl loves her stomach which leaves me a paranoid mess.  If I am in the room I will let her sleep like this... if not, then we have a rough day and don't even get me started on night time sleeping habits.  We need some help around here.  I have never had a baby that was such a naughty sleeper.

Day 14: January 14th 2014

Happy birthday to this guy.  He is one of the best people I know.  And I am not even biased at all.  The best part of the day was Crew's present to him.  He had told me earlier in the day that he "knows exactly what he wants to get his dad."  When he informed me he wanted to buy him a 'girl' it took me a few minutes to figure out he meant a 'grill'.  He didn't quite have enough money to purchase the 'girl', so he wrapped up a $1 bill and told him it is to go toward him buying that 'girl'.

Day 11: January 11th 2014

The smile.  The tongue.  The hair.  The eyes.  Those cheeks.  I just cannot stand it.  Cutest. Baby.  Ever.

Day 10: January 10th 2014

Cole had Remi's name for Christmas this year and picked out this doll for her.  All three boys are adamant she has a doll wherever she goes already.

Day 9: January 9th 2014

Just a little before school boxing lesson to start the day off right:

Day 8: January 8th 2014

This kid comes home with a good one to two hours of homework every night.  It was a fight to get him to do it in the beginning, but he has gotten so much better at just sitting down and finishing the second he walks in from school.

Day 7: January 7th 2014

Day 6: January 6th 2014

There are some days that I am so beyond grateful for bedtime it is not even funny.  Today was one of those days.

Day 5: January 5th 2014

This little lady was blessed in church today by her daddy.  She wore the dress I wore when I was blessed.  It was a special, sweet day.  And she looked oh so beautiful.

Day 4: January 4th 2014

January 4th is spent at the park.  In shorts and a tshirt.  In 65 degree weather.  It doesn't get much better than that.

Day 3: January 3rd 2014

Day 2: January 2nd 2014

Day 1: January 1st 2014

For the past few months, I have toyed around with the idea of doing another picture a day for the year 2014.  I went back and forth and in the end decided to do it.  I had been working on our 2012 blog book and came across this post:

"2012.  What a year.  It will not go down in Jamieson family history as the best year we have had.  It has been hard to relive this year through the pictures and stories that are told here.  There are days that I do not even want to remember.  That being said, we grew and we learned and we were a family.  We were so extremely blessed in so many ways.  We learned that people are good.  Strangers that you never meet can become close friends.  Family.  It is the one true thing that you live for.  Laughter.  Pizza parties.  Hugs and kisses.  Saying I love you every. single. day.  Heavenly  Father answers prayers.  Even if they are not the way you want them answered.  He listens and loves us.  Treasure and live each and every day like it is your last one.  Smile.  Sing.  Dance your way through life.  It is frustrating to me that we had to live through this year to be taught the small and simple things are the things that really matter most.  But we learned that lesson well.  And we love these three boys to the moon and back.  They are our life.  xoxoxo"

I want to remember the little things.  Not just the big moments, but the small and simple joys of this time in our life.  Forcing a camera in my hand always makes me aware of those moments.  A lot of pictures may be from my phone, and they may not be the best quality or the best shot, I just want to be able to look at a picture twenty years from now and remember the feelings of having a new baby or watching my boys' imagination run wild at the park.  They are the things that really matter in life.  So.  Here we go again!  Hopefully I can keep up.  And considering I am already twenty days behind and leaving quite a few days blank, we are obviously off to a good start!
