Couldn’t Help Myself

I have absolutely no time to be mucking about and scrapping, but I just couldn’t help myself today. I love these SEI papers so much and had ideas swimming around my head all night…. what else could I do?? So here is today’s layout of Christopher. He is a little cheeky-chops. I’ve been meaning to...

Happy Birthday Nick

My baby had his second birthday today. He is so much a little boy now… gone are his baby days. Nicholas was totally spoilt and received some great gifts from his family. He has been grinning all day (except when Mia & Chris kept taking his new toys off him). I made him a truck...

Quiet But Busy Week

It’s been a quiet week on the scrapping front. I’ve barely heard from my scrapping friends (other than catching up with some girls on Monday). My inbox has been very quiet. I guess we are all just as busy as each other. I have finally installed my external hard drive and am now trying to...

Ooops, and….

I forgot to add a huge thank you to the lovely Julie for my pressie for guessing the number on her blog. Julie gave me a gorgeous ‘Forever Friends’ notebook, which I just love! Julie doesn’t know, but Forever Friends are my all time favourite characters/brand. All through school, when they first came out, and...

She’s Leaving On a Jet Plane….

…don’t know when she’ll be back again. Who am I talking about? Well, if you blog-hop as much as I do, you would have already read that my sweetest, dear friend Alicia is heading for New York – soon! We’ve known for a long time, now, that she and her little family were going to...

Wedding Anniversary

Yesterday was our sixth wedding anniversary and John and I had a great day. We relaxed in the morning (which, for me, meant scrapping), went shopping with the kids in the afternoon, then went out to a quick dinner and movie last night. My MIL looked after our kidlets and it was so nice having...

Photo Swap for Shirley

I hope Shirls doesn’t mind me posting this here, but this is the layout I completed with her gorgeous photo. I love the photo heaps and feel I didn’t quite do it justice, but I love the layout nonetheless. The beautiful photo is of Abby and her grandfather taken in the Lingering Garden in China....

Bye Bye, Baby, Bye Bye

For the first time in over five years, I once again have no cot in the house. My littlest Nicholas has moved into a big bed and is growing up too fast. I haven’t been able to get a photo yet (I know – shock, horror!), but he is settling okay. He spent last night...
