Baby clothes...

I know I'm getting all sappy and mushy, but... It's been a while since we've had these tiny outfits in our household!

Ethan is now 3 1/2 years old and far from fitting into cutsie baby items... and I am still marvelling at how tiny Cameron seems to be. He was born only slightly smaller in weight than the other three and so I want to remember thinking at this point, 3 weeks, that he is "just sooo tiny!" Lol!

In scrapping news, I have blatantly scrap lifted Fran Tynan's layout over at Anna's.

This layout was just too gorgeous to pass up an opportunity to scrap her beautiful work. And since I'm pushed for time at the moment....well,...let's just say, it made life a little bit easier when I had the urge to create and next to no time to create in! Lol!

Journal It!...

Check this out! I am now a creative team member of Journal It! and my first layout is up.

The prompt was to create a layout using a "top #" as inspiration. In my layout, I used our recent series of camping photos and a list style of journaling, to pinpoint little memories that I don't want to forget. Thus creating, "Our top Camping Adventures '09"...

So head on over to Journal It! and play along!

Create...

As promised... A little bit of scrapping...

This layout of Liam, is one I've been trying to get to for some time...ahem... Well, since February 2009, when this photo was taken! Yikes...

Anyway, the point being I guess, is that I eventually put it down on paper! hehehe... Stay tuned. There's more to come...

Journal It!...

If you have noticed my side bar, then you would probably have guessed my news by now. That's right! Beth has asked me to join the Journal It! creative team and I am absolutely thrilled. My first lay out comes out with challenge #7. Hopefully (and with extreme effort! lol) I'll be able to make each deadline! Wish me luck! I am soooo excited!

Two weeks...

That's right. Two weeks of sleepless nights...of pacing the floor during the day...of constantly checking a sleeping baby to see that he is actually sleeping and... Two weeks of pure joy and love.

It has been wonderful getting to know this beautiful boy. Even Ethan is starting to come round! hehehe... At least he is no longer calling Cameron "you!". Now it's more "your baby".

I have actually done some scrapping too! Not sure how I've managed...but I have squeezed it in! Hopefully I'll be able to show later in the week. And.... I have some exciting news to share! Again, more about that later in the week. Thanks for visiting.

An award...

I have been sent this lovely blog award from Angie. A friend I met online through my real-life friend Lorraine! Does that make sense? hehehe...suffering a little from lack of sleep! Anyway, this gorgeous award requires that I acknowledge the person who sent it to me and if I like, to pass it on to others who I admire.

The trouble is... there are so many talented people I truly admire that it would take me a month of Sundays just to write all the names down. Soooo, as time is limited for me at the moment, I'll pass on the award at a later date. Thanks again Angie for the vote of confidence and the lovely comments.

Etsy yumminess...

Check out all the gorgeousness coming from my friend Jodie's etsy shop! http://www.sweetvintage78.etsy.com/ is full of beautiful hand-made flowers, vintage paper covered buttons and other yummy items! Perfect for all those finishing touches. Here's a tiny sample of what she is offering.

I absolutely love these butterflies and so wish i had a bucket full of them! hehehe...

And who could go wrong with these lovely flowers? Good luck Jodie with your new shop! xxx
