365 photo challenge: 2nd week of April

This was my first week of taking pictures and it went quite well, I think! Now remember, I’m not doing to learn how to take great photos. I’m using my smart phone camera, after all. I’m doing this to record our lives as we live them now. Which means non of these pictures were staged. They truly did happen on their own.

So, with out further ado….

Foolish

We bought our first watermelon of the season and the children asked for “big pieces”. Little did we know what would become of the rinds…

100

Our house was built in 1909. A nice big “farm house” that;’s not on the farm. I love our house (but I don’t love it’s location…). And yes, it’s April 13 and we still have that much snow on the ground. Spring really will come, or so they say….

Brand new

  We bough a new baby car seat for our little man (yes!! We are having our 5th boy!). Due to the federal law that no car seat/booster seat can be used 8 years beyond its manufactured date, we had to purchase a new one. Even though the one Caleb used not 2 years ago is just fine.

Couple this with my brand new car seat cover from my Wish List Swap Partner and he’ll be sitting in style!

On The Edge 

Adam made pancakes the other day for breakfast. He got the “Papa Bear” one!

Ears

Isaac was pretending to be an elephant. Then his Dad had a bright idea. I think he was a pretty good sport, don’t you?

Unlikely Pair

Walking into our house, it has the appearance of a normal one, aside from the abnormal amount of people living inside. Decorated in a comfortable, if not an eclectic one. Any unsuspecting person wouldn’t know that just behind “that door” is our commercial kitchen (you can see our walk-in cooler, with the air conditioner that makes it a cooler). White. Stainless steel. 100% scrubable (my part of the house is not). Inspected and licensed by the state. And unlikely pair indeed.

Fresh

  Adam decided to “play” and he made croissant dough with the children. Some we kept as croissants and some we made into Danishes. These are fresh from the oven for breakfast this morning. YUM!!
