Week 14, April 1-7. Still love this project! I pretty much just had photos from two events: my brother, his wife, and their niece Stella came over for a playdate one evening, and on the weekend we visited a local wildlife refuge. The one other picture, of Meredith in the stroller, came from my mom who took her to the dog park one day. I thought about combining this week with the next, but since that was my vacation week I knew I’d have plenty of photos from that to stand on its own and I didn’t want to cram. So I looked for ways to fill the pockets. On the left I included my April goals, which I’m doing…

This is from the week of March 25-31. It includes Easter and my day in the life record, so even though it only encompasses one week, it is very full. That’s how it goes! On the left side I tried to include all the more routine parts of our week. Then there is the day in the life insert.

I took a decent amount of photos so for the journal and extras I kept it pretty neutral. Although the spread encompasses two weeks, the photos are not in chronological order so I included dates on most of them….

Week 10! This is from March 4-10. Again, it was only one week instead of my usual two because I took a lot of photos that I wanted to include. On the left side is a favorite silly photo of Meredith and me making faces, a bit about my new work shoes, March’s calendar, the refrigerator oatmeal that is a new fave, Meredith shopping with David, and the start of my new cross stitch project. On the right is a couple of pictures of our shopping day with Lauren plus journaling. We bought Meredith the anywhere chair from Pottery Barn Kids and I cut a portion from the bag to include. We also got Freebirds for dinner one night and…
