Thankful Day 5: My Week(53) in iPhone Photos
This week was fueled by left-over party food, lots of Stroller Strides to balance out the party food and plenty of begging my children to behave themselves so I didn’t have to drag them home and entertain them myself all afternoon. But even on the days when I resorted to bribery, tears, screaming and more screaming we had tons and tons of good moments. Today I am thankful my iPhone gives me an easy way to capture those moments, so once a week when I review them for this post I pretty much forget all the bad stuff. It is extremely good for my sanity.
Sunday:
Nursery floor pillows are probably never going back up to the nursery. SO COMFY. (Sidenote: not my kid)
After finally sorting all the baby clothes, Caroline's room looks like a real playroom
Mmmmm...dirty, soap filled water is the BEST.
Monday:
Oh no! I'm being attacked by the tiniest most adorable dragon ever!
The button on that bench at Old Navy didn't do anything. Best toddler toy ever.
My I got new boots boots! (They're miraculously large enough for my huge calves and were only $25 at Old Navy)
Tuesday:
My kid might be the only person on the planet who gets one of those "part of a complete breakfast" cereal commercial breakfasts...and then doesn't eat any of it.
This buckle? Is NOT OK. It totally doesn't match my outfit.
I'm kind of obsessed with taking sleeping pictures of Caroline, since Little Evan was such a picky sleeper I never got to take any.
Wednesday:
SO EXCITED. And it's not even on.
Sinking her teeth into a little vampire fiction (IT'S TWO JOKES IN ONE!)
Cut up food. Throw it in a freezer bag. Add mustard and rosemary. Freeze. Voila, easy peasy dinners.
Thursday:
Overdramatic toddler is overdramatic. NO MAMA, NO WALK DOWNSTAIRS. FOOT HURT. (He has a hangnail.)
It made my house smell like CHRISTMAS.
Four children. Two shopping carts. WHO WILL BE THE FIRST TO FALL ON THEIR HEAD?
Friday:
I take your picture take my picture, mama!
Using the ball winder at the yarn store is oddly thrilling.
"Evan, what are you doing?" "Fire truck! Weeeoooooh!" "Uh, ok."
Saturday:
Clyde's. Pretty much the best place ever on a Saturday in November.
This is what 1 dozen apple cider donuts look like after I've shoved half of them in my face.
I just don't even know.
Now we’re going to go cram a week’s worth of family time in less than 48 hours. There will be forts, dancing, messes and pizza with our weird, wonderful kids. I am thankful for ALL of those things.
Did you take any camera phone photos this week? Link up with one or lots using the linky below and grab the code (so it shows on your blog too!) over at Amy’s . It’s really fun! (linky up on Sunday!)

Bonjour! No I'm not French, it just sounded fancy. Sorry for the confusion. I'm Suzanne, a 36-year-old mom, photographer, Navy wife, blogger, baker, and amateur at pretty much everything else. The stars of the show are Evan, born 4/5/09, Caroline, born 12/19/2010 and Lincoln, born 7/23/2014. The last bebeh is Finnegan, born 8/30/2016 so he's a toddler now but don't talk to me about that. We live in Connecticut and enjoy it very much except for most of February and March. You can find more of my photos (or even hire me!) over on my photography site, 
seriously, they are the cutest!!! … & i love the boots!
I am glad to report that NO ONE fell on their head during that particular toddler heavy shopping trip. Also, I am glad you too find winding yarn thrilling. And, I’m sort of jealous that you made it over to Clyde’s.
I love the last picture. She looks so cute and mischievous.
ELIZABETH HAS THAT SAME POLKADOT SKIRT AS IN THE LAST PHOTO!! And also happens to be wearing it TODAY, which made it seem like MAGIC to see it on the blog!
I was like “who IS that kid in the first picture?!” Oh. Oops. It’s my kid. lol
I NEED those boots and a trip to Clydes. Is it weird if I buy them too? No, because I never see you anymore right? Of course your kids are crazy cute too. Thanks for the iPhone tip, clearly I am an idiot.
I bought those EXACT same boots! They are ridiculously comfortable! I walked all over Columbus last weekend wearing them with nary a blister or achy sole! Best $20 bucks spent! I’ve worn them with jeans and dresses at this point! So versatile!
the caroline pictures are cracking.me.up! she’s got such a personality already.
