Luke, wearing his hat for the Easter Hat Parade. I had some hot glue gun lovin’ and now I want to hot glue everything. It isn’t appropriate for my scrapbook though, I suppose.
Day to day

Literary Week come dressed as your favourite book character day: Kate as Alice in Wonderland and Luke as a bear out of his favourite book ‘I can… can you?’ Making the costumes drove me crazy, but I got there in the end and I must say, besides the fact that Kate is soooo skinny so

I scrapped this layout of Amy for the blind CC over at The Scrapbook Establishment. Other than that, we had a family portrait done today. The result was good and I can’t wait to get the photo in 2 weeks time. Well, back to these costumes I am making for the kids for school.

A birthday and some layouts I have been busy, I have recommenced studying this year. It’s exciting and I am throwing myself into it with gusto. I study while Amy is alseep which is convenient. The only downside is, I seemto have no spare time left anymore. Not to worry, stuvac will be here before

A birthday and some Offbeat layouts. Bear in mind that the last 2 layouts use really old pre-scrapbooking photos so the photos are a bit dodgy, but hold special memories and moments and deserve to be preserved also. And we had a birthday. Luke turned 5. He knew that his birthday was just before school

Where’d the week go? Do you ever think to yourself ‘I’ll do that later’ and then you realise it is like a whole week later? I do. All the time. I am not sure if it’s because of working nights that I seem to lose days, but sometimes I feel like a day has passed

Some awards and more Project 365 I received this tag a while ago from this super chick, Skye, who I met through the forums over at Scrapbooking Memories. And I received this award from Lisa, who I met through the SM forums also, and Tanya, who is the newest member of the DT over at

Well, it’s been a while… This might be a big post but only because we have had a couple of big weeks. Most noteable though is Steve has been on holidays for the last week and a half. I have really loved having him home. Even though I still had to trudge out to work

Probably a big post. Sorry about that. Day 3 of Ali’s 25 Days of Christmas: Amy has learnt to climb onto the chair in her room. After I change her nappy I usually leave her to have some quiet play time while I wash my hands etc, but I wont be able to now as

Newsletter layouts. The next edition of The Scrapbook Establishment’s newsletter is out and I had the pleasure of creating for it. I was given BG Urban Prairie to work with. Can I just say how divine it is! It is gorgeous! I struggled to scrap these layouts as I really wanted to do the range

A DT layout and a zoo trip. I have had these photos developed for ages and I never knew how I should go about scrapping them. I saw Julie had done a layout and titled it Pit Crew Boss and I knew the theme was perfect! I am pretty bad with titles! Sometimes I would

A sketch and some scones. The October sketch challenge is up at The Scrapbook Establishment and I created the sketch! It was very exciting to do and I think it could be quite addictive to create them! (I guess, just ask Becky Higgins! LOL!) You can either create a layout or a card and you

A layout, omissions and a photo, just one. So, I scrapped a layout for Apple Blossom Studios. The stamps really are great. So sticky and big and yummy. I was going to do a girly layout, but decided that I really wanted to use the Military Kaisercraft patterned paper I got in my order from

It’s been a while… Since I have blogged here. I have been busy, but aren’t we all? Lots of stuff has happened over the last 3 or so weeks. Amy got her first tooth. Well, her first two teeth. Once that first one came through, the next one just popped up right next to it.

I have been neglectful Of this blog in the last week or so. It’s because nothing has happened because I have been unwell. It really hit me hard. The doctor gave me three days off work and at first I thought that was too much, but in the end I don’t think it was enough!

Last week. I just thought I would do a quick post before I have to get ready to take Luke to preschool. He is eating his lunch – a tuna sandwich, my kids love tuna, go figure, and Amy is asleep. A cuppa just downed, oh goodness, I could go another one. Anyway, where was

Welcome Winter! Wow, winter, already?! My uncle once told me about a theory about time. It makes sense to me. When we are 2, one year is half our lives. So it seems like a really long time. When we are 10, 1 year is 1/10th of our lives, so it still seems a long

A new addition! Well, there goes another week and a half. Last week was great, although I did miss Steve terribly. On the upside, I got to sleep. Lots. Goodness it felt great to have a solid 11 hours sleep if I wanted too. Now I am back to the 4 hours per day which

Has it really been over 2 months since I updated this thing? I think I need to pay more attention to my blog and use it in the way it should be used. That is, to look back on and remember things because time moves so fast it is easy to forget the little things.

38+2 weeks today. Wow, it is getting closer and closer and closer! I was talking to Steve earlier and I was saying how surreal it all still feels. I am sure those feelings will be long gone when we are getting our 3 hourly wake up calls! LOL! Well, today I made Steve take some
