Scrapbooking Stella















Would you believe these are the first pages that I have made of Stella!? She is just so stinking cute. Obviously her mommy is having a lot of fun dressing her and taking pictures. Do you see why I NEED a little girl! Of course, I'm not complaining though. Look at the sweet, loving faces on my boys. I love this picture of them because they are actually this close and not hurting each other!
Today was such a beautiful day that we were able to play outside for a while. That is such a treat this time of year. Unfortunately, it got me looking in our garage at all our toys and I was reminded of the daily summer ritual of dragging everything out and then fighting with all the kids to take them back in at the end of the evening. I love being able to give our kids so many things, but there are obviously many disadvantages in doing that. Do you think they would notice if I got rid of everything except one kickball?!

The St. Lunatics


We are in St. Louis right now visiting Tracy. At the moment, Parker and Jack are running around like lunatics which is somewhat upsetting for Stella (and Tracy.) She is just soooo cute. She is a feisty little thing. She definitely isn't one of those peaceful babies that just lie quietly and cuddle in your arms. Instead, she is busy and full of life and personality. What a wonderful addition to our family.
Tracy and I have been gathering scrapbooking supplies and I am eager to go home and get busy scrapping. I always seem to get inspired after I visit St. Louis.
I have been on the hunt for Crocs for Parker and Jack. I swear every kid in this town is wearing them. They look so adorable on kids--boys and girls. I am really hoping that Parker will wear them this summer. I love mine!

A Few Little Scrapbooks



I'm sneaking a quick moment to add a picture or two of some scrapbooks. I have been having so much fun with my little "business." I've had several orders and I've been pleased with how it's going so far. I have more creative ideas than I have time. Too bad creative thinking doesn't burn calories--I would be SKINNY!!! Unfortunately, doughnuts seem to fuel my creative process and scrapbooking is a very sedentary activity.
As you know, those two things make for a BIG BUTT! Have a happy, active, creative day!

I want to BLOG!!!

I really want to have a blog, so I am going to see how this goes. I just think it is so much fun to be able to share thoughts and ideas with other people. I also want to have a place where potential customers can see my scrapbooks so they can see what I'm up to. So, let's just see how it goes! Nothing ventured, nothing gained--right!?
Here are my two creative inspirations! Parker and Jack--my very own little super heroes.
