Today I had the timer on my phone set to go off at regular intervals to remind me to take a picture, because it’s #OneDayHH day on Instagram. OneDay is the brainchild of former blogger Laura Tremaine, and it calls for participants to chronicle small, everyday moments throughout one full day. I did it last year. Poppy said she really enjoyed the post, and I love taking pictures. So I did it again this year, too.

Here’s what our day looked like:

9am – Keep Your Germs to Yourself

My husband decided to work from home today rather than share his cold with the whole office. #OneDayHH

10am – Homeschooling in Progress

An hour into our #homeschool day. They've finished history & now he's doing vocabulary and she's doing math. #OneDayHH

11am – A New Distraction

This guy has been saving his chore money to buy a Wii U. Birthday $ from grandparents put him over the top, and he was finally able to buy it yesterday. I think he set a record finishing his schoolwork this morning so he could play. #OneDayHH

12pm – Long Overdue

Rakers gonna rake rake rake rake rake. #OneDayHH

1pm – Not Nutritionally Sound

Lunch #OneDayHH

2pm – The Car Was Not in Motion

Power was out on our side of town for 2 hours. I didn't want to brave our busy busy road with no functioning stoplights, but the power came back with just enough time to get the kids to tae kwon do and so off we rushed. #longboringstory #onedayhh #drivewayphoto #nostrils

3pm – Kickin’ It

I spend a lot of time here. #onedayhh #tkdkids

3:30pm – A Lovely Surprise

A beautiful surprise from my beautiful friends. Thank you, Bridget, Katie, Piper, Kim and Sherry! #onedayhh

4pm – Cat Pants are the Best Pants

She finally got a turn to play the new wii. #onedayhh #catpants

5:30pm – Go Away, Cold

I am counting the hours til it's socially acceptable to take the green ones. #IHaveACold #OneDayHH #NyQuil

6:30pm – Not Lemon Chicken

It was supposed to be lemon chicken night, but I didn't want to cook. #OneDayHH

7:30pm – Games and a Cat

My dad and I always have a game of scrabble going on Facebook. He wins 99% of the time. #OneDayHH

Resident nurse kitty #MarshaTCat checks in on her patient. #OneDayHH

9:45pm – I Used Way Too Much Honey

In which I continue to baby my cold. #OneDayHh
