365 Love Letters Day 365!

I wanted my last photo of the year to capture all three of us. I had taken all 364 photos before this one so I wanted to be the one to take the last photo too. I propped the camera on her changing table, set the settings, then use my wireless remote trigger.

I thought the message was perfect for wrapping up the project and how I (we) feel about her.

Some FAQs answered about my project...

I DO plan to print these into a book for my daughter.

I DO want to do it for my next child.

YES, I will be doing a similar photo project for 2012 but it's going to be different, much bigger, and not on this blog. I'll give you more details soon. For now, I'll leave you with my final Project 365 Love Letter of 2011.

Happy New Year!

365 Love Letters Week 47

This was the week we went to Vegas for Thanksgiving then came home and set up our tree (Day 330), so a few photos with my family are in this bunch.

My favorite of this week is probably day 326. Love the old/young contrast. The light was low and they were moving a lot so it wasn't totally in focus, but I'm still glad I captured it.
She laughed at the garland this year, just like she did last year. Bow from London Blue Designs. I made the dress.

She grabbed the doll in a day after Thanksgiving sale and wouldn't put it down for days.

Best pie EVER! I love to eat it. Need to learn to make it.

She was a MESS. Notice how she took my spoon!

My great-grandfather. He's 92.

She's feeding my little sister. She's 6 and she LOVES her niece.

Out in the yard playing in another mommy-made outfit. Feeling fall festive.

365 Love Letters Week 46

Thank you SO SO much for your sweet comments on my project. I'm trying to finish editing and uploading the last several weeks by Saturday night. Your words are keeping me going.

My favorite photo this week is probably Day 323 or 317 but my favorite advice is Day 320. I heard Michelle Duggar say this on the Today Show about her kids and it all totally makes sense to me now. I hope I can explain this to my daughter as she gets older and that she'll understand what I mean.
Shoes from Cambria Laine. Leg Warmers from Lil Snugglies by Val


This picture came out crappy, I think I have a better version on my phone that I'll have to re-edit later but you get the idea.
Concept borrowed from Michelle Duggar. I LOVE how she's smelling the flowers here.

Normally she's in this chair rocking away but I took this after her bed time.

She has bokoo tutus. I need to re-purpose the tulle.

... This advise needs to be kept within reason. Cute outfit from Morigional Designs.

365 Love Letters Week 45

Week 45 was a fun week for photos. Over the last couple of months she's really started to love Snoop. We've taken him for walks together, she pets him when we get home, and hugs him like this. He's loving all of the new found attention and I'm sure, feeling like a puppy again.

As usual I love the daddy/daughter photo. When they are snuggling before bed it's too hard for me not to snap a pic with my iPhone. My favorite is either day one or Day 310.
Loving on her furry brother.

Learning to use utensils. She loves peaches.

Smooching on daddy before bed.
She still loves this Tedddy. Strangely enough, she prefers to keep in Spanish mode.
We took this photo on our nature walk. Love this quote by MLK Jr.
She wore her Dr. Seuss hat and dress to the library, so it was only appropriate I use a quote of his too. The adorable outfit is from Lollibug Boutique.
