Project Life - Week 47

Welcome to Project Life Tuesday 2011! If you are new to my blog, welcome! I hope you will stay awhile. I'm Jessica and I am participating in Project Life, a different way to record our lives by taking one photo a day. This was inspired by the fabulous Becky Higgins who has put together a wonderful kit to make this challenge easier.


Don't worry, I'm not leaving traditional scrapbooking behind. This just gives me the opportunity to focus my scrapbooking on trips and things that are important to me right now and not get all bogged down with every birthday, dinner, and holiday that comes along.

Each Tuesday, I will post my pictures/journaling from the previous week. Project Life Tuesday was created by Jessica Turner over at The Mom Creative and she hosts a linky for readers to link up their pictures. So if you want to join in or want to see others POTW, just click the Project Lift button at the top of this post.

And finally, my POTW:

Saturday - One of Juan's brothers, Gaston, came to visit today from Florida and got to meet Maddie for the first time. She was enthralled when he was talking to her. I think she saw the resemblance to Juan but the voice didn't match Daddy's and she was confused. It was very cute.

Sunday - Daddy feeding Maddie, a daily occurance. She is in her star outfit, so fluffy.

Monday - Today was Maddie's 2 month appointment. She got an oral medication and three shots of immunizations in her little thighs. She was quite the trooper, poor little thing.

Tuesday - Maddie and Mommy had a rough night last night. Maddie was very fussy from her shots and didn't sleep well. This morning Mommy brought Maddie into her bed to try and get her to sleep for a little while longer.

Wednesday - Juan's brother, Jaime, from San Antonio flew in this morning to spend Thanksgiving with us. It was his first time meeting Maddie and he was instantly enamored. Maddie, of course, was ready to eat as soon as we hit the airport, so Tio Jaime fed her.

Thursday - We hosted Thanksgiving at our house again this year. We had 12 people attend.. It was definitely harder getting everything ready with an infant. Good thing we had an extra set of hands. The ones not pictured here are Miriam and Isabella. We have a LOT to be thankful for this year. God has truly blessed us!

Friday - Today was another jam packed day. I was intent on getting the Christmas decorations up and Juan was intent on having a BBQ with all of his family over again. It was a long day, but we did manage to go pick out Maddie's first Christmas tree! She was obviously super excited.

Thanks for visiting our little corner of the world this week!
