December 12 of 12


The last 12 of 12 of the year.  December 12th was on a Wednesday this year.

01. This is Micah standing in front of the school library.  After school we went to the school book fair.

02. My dinner. It's not healthy but so yummy.  Pancakes with crispy edges because they were cooked in oil.  Then smothered in peanut butter and syrup.  Totally not healthy.  But one of my favorites and they are the best when I am pregnant since I have no guilt eating them. :)

03. Gracie patting my belly.  I'm 26 weeks pregnant.

04. This is what the leaves look like in December in San Diego. Yep, it looks and feels like Fall. I don't mind since bundling up kids is no fun in the winter time.

05. Before bed Micah asked Grace for a hug.  She loves giving hugs. 

06. Walking home from school.  Grace demanded to push the stroller home. Oh, and this is the same stroller we had in New York.  It is old and squeaks.  I don't usually use it, but Grace saw it in the garage so we took it.

07. Gracie looking at the tree and destroying the ornaments. She has destroyed more ornaments than any of the boys ever did. I don't mind too much since we didn't put too many on.

08. Before bed while I was getting the pajamas for the boys Grace pulled out David's underwear and wanted to wear it. This is her running around the house in them. 

09.  Walking home from school. This picture is more of the boys up in front talking and getting along.  Notice how only Lucas has a jacket on. Yep, it's December.

10. For Cub Scouts the previous Friday we made graham cracker houses using old Halloween candy.  It was awesome. We used up all the candy and the boys had so much fun.

11.  Jon trying to leave for work in the morning. David and Gracie hanging on to his legs and Jon pretending to be a monster. They were laughing so hard.  

12. Every morning before Jon leaves to work Gracie wants Jon to give her a kiss on the forehead.  If she doesn't get this then she gets very sad. 

So that is the end of 2012 12 of 12 challenge.  It was a fun challenge. It really showed how much my days are like groundhog day and how the weather here doesn't change much.  But kids change and I enjoyed the process of documenting at least one day out of the month.  If I didn't do this I don't think I would have blogged all year.  So I am so happy and thankful that I did this.  I will continue this for the new year as well.
