It's a.........

BOY! It's official it is a BOY! We had our ultrasound at 4:30 on Tuesday. We were so excited to see him again. He was moving around for us and even waved! The first thing we saw was his hand and it looked as if he was waving to us! It was too cute! So now we have to agree on a name for our baby boy!!

I hosted a crop at my house yesterday, not as many showed up as said but the four of us had fun and lots of yummy treats! I only finished one lo though! :( I was busy trying to help my mom and mother in law with their pages. I did continue after they all left and did a two pager. This first lo is from our first Ultrasound, not this last one.


This 2 pager is from our first full day in Maui. We found this beautiful beach park while on a drive. It was so nice and empty! We have since seen it on tv on one of the most beautiful beaches of Hawaii show on the Travel channel. It was worth the stop! We were having too much fun here too since we were the only ones on the beach. That is a picture of Joe and his brother getting ready to race on the beach.


Have a great week!

Inspired!

That was me last night! I was looking at some layouts in the scrapbook.com gallery and got inspired to start scrapping. I dug out a lo that I kinda started a few months ago at a crop. I had only cut the paper but nothing was glued down. I had some trouble with the pictures and their placement. I am still not sure about it but hey I got 8 pictures on there!! So here is the first 2pages I finished.

So next I moved onto my one and only picture I took of myself during the first trimester. Well I did take another of my shirt pulled up but that is not scrap-worthy! lol I really had fun with this one. i actually started with a different piece of pp that I really wanted to use and chose some of these to go with it and after I cut it up decided not to even use that one. The picture is not the best and I released after it was glued that I forgot to take out the red eye but oh well! It will do!

So it was getting late but I was on a mission and couldn't stop! :) So I did one of our tree from this year. We don't have many pictures at home from the holidays so I like to scrap our tree just to remember.

I found the trees in a magazine and lifted the idea, love how they turned out!

That's all for tonight! Good night!

I realized that I had black on again so I pulled up my sweater for a better look! :)

During my break I was able to do one layout! So sad I know!! I have tons of pictures waiting to be scrapped! I need to go to a crop night to catch up!!

Happy New Year!

Hope you have a wonderful New Year's Eve! We stayed home and just had my parents over for dinner! Joe has been really sick the last few days so he even went to bed shortly after dinner. My parents and I hung out but we could not make it till midnight. They left around 9:30 and I went to bed at 11:00. I can't believe how fast 2007 went by! Time sure flies and I am getting older! But 2007 was really a great year for us! Here is my list of memories or things that stand out:
*went to Monterey for the first time-loved it there
*did a lot of work on the house
*turned 30!!
*went Maui for the second time and watched my brother get married
*got pregnant :)
That's all for now but I know there must be more!

Our Christmas was wonderful! We spent Christmas Eve with my family and Day with his. It went by way too fast. I am really sad it's over but so looking forward to next year!

I am sharing a canvas that I made for my mom for Christmas. I made it the night before CHristmas eve and was really happy with it!And my mom loved, she said she didn't need another gift. Can't wait to make one for myself!

Also at the same time in between waiting for the paint to dry I made this frame for my sil. I bought it months ago at Michaels for $1.00 and love how easy it was. I will have to pick up another one because they are fun little gifts to give!


Hope you have a wonderful 2008!
