first things first – man these are hard to photograph in those page protectors! but seriously, i had such a good time documenting our first week of 2012. simply being able to pull things from my stash and make each photo or journaling card stand alone was an awesome feeling.
i really do swear all of my photos are in focus. i was rushing to photograph things during naptime right after i had finished and the sunlight was fading fast.

loved using the small strip in the middle of the page for memorabilia and smaller vertical photos like belly shot for the week. it's definitely better smaller! i also included a receipt from our weekly target trip and a letter from andy's parents and sister to the girls. they usually leave early in the morning before the girls get up and leave them notes at their places at the dining room table. i cut a slit in the page protector on this side so that they're easily removed and read later.

so glad i jotted down the quote from C. i know had i not been doing project life, there's no way i would've remembered what she said a week ago. and now it's down for us to remember forever.
i included a piece of the mcdonald's bag on my last journaling card for the week. a perfect fit width wise. and really no surprise whatsoever that mcdonald's would make my first week in review for the year if you know me whatsoever, right?
