January 1 This was my first picture of 2010 as Eric rolled his ankle playing nerf basketball in the bedroom less than a half hour before midnight.
January 2 We instituted a new rule in our home that the kids needed to earn their Wii time. They get two minutes of Wii time for every minute of reading they do. For the younger two it must be out loud to someone. Here Blake is reading to Parker.
January 3 These little LEGO Star Wars people have been a hit in the house since Christmas.
January 4 Back to school day! We started our new science unit on the Five Senses.
January 5 We rotate chores around the house by month. The whole month of January Kaleigh is in charge of dishes. She actually enjoys this job and asked me if it could be her permanent job.
January 6 We started reading 'Making Brothers and Sisters Best Friends as part of our morning routine. I thought I was going to get a lot of resistance to this new routine, but the kids are enjoying it and ask me to read more.
January 7 Parker and I finally got around to building one of his LEGO Star Wars ships. I must say he did very well for 568 pieces.

Making Brothers and Sisters Best Friends is such a GREAT book! :)I'm going to have to get my own copy and put it in my Hope Chest for when my kids are older (when I have kids! :)). I was just thinking "I have that book" and then realized that *I* do NOT, my Mom has the book! :)
I'm thrilled you are doing the 365 project. Sometimes it takes some thought but its so rewarding to look back on a year...on the insignificant details of your day to day that are actually the most special as you look back.
DOn't get discouraged...just do what you can!
Great start, other than that Jan 1 picture! :)
