Been busy

I've been scrapping on & off but mostly I've been doing stuff to get ready for the baby. Last night I finished the valance for his room and today I am working on blankets. I came across a blog and I want to add the link here because I think this is a neat idea! CRIB RAIL I like the 2nd crib rail cover best, it looks real simple and super cute too! It's also the style blanket I am making for the crib today!

Other than baby stuff, not much new going on. I've been garage sale-ing, searching for deals & I hit the jackpot one day! I came home with a baby swing, bouncer/walker, car seat, CRIB & other miscellaneous baby items and only spent $120! And to top it off, that very day my new camera from hsn arrived! So I'll have to take some pictures of all the baby goodies with my new camera!

Well, I'm off for now! Back to that baby blanket...

LO of the day

A recent page I did of my Tyler was chosen for layout of the day on designsindigital.com. What a nice surprise! This is a new site I've come across and they are very friendly scrappers over there!

After we shut the carton, this made me laugh!

We've also been
FLYING KITES:
I was real bummed I forgot my camera so I had to settle for cell phone pictures!




and they've also been trying their hand at paint by numbers:



And now that spring break is over, I have lots of laundry and other stuff to get caught up on!
That's all for now!

A nice surprise

2 of my layouts below were shared over on the Digital Blueprint blog! Thanks so much to Pia! Go check out her blog sometime!

It's confirmed...

Earlier this week, I had my ultrasound to confirm the gender of the baby & we found out we are having a boy! Yup! Our 4th baby boy! He, Carter I should say is also healthy and looks great. They also said he weighs about 13 ounces and his heart was beating at 144 bpm. I've been scrapping a lot but what I wanted to share is this page I just did today:

AND some more ultrasound pictures that I have yet to scrap, I think these are so cool! I had nothing close to this with my first two boys and with my last, they gave me a single 4d photo. The ultrasound tech was awesome and was dead set on getting a good picture of him for me!





The kit I used for the page above is "The blues" by Katie's DIgital Designs can be found HERE

Lots of scrapping

I've been catching up on lots of old pictures, I think I'll never really be "caught up" though! I have pictures all the way back from 2000 to catch up on! Here's a few I finished recently, I've actually done lots more but don't want to flood my blog with pages & pages! I'll have to figure out how to get a slide show on here.

This first page is my middle son, Tyler. He wrote me the sweetest note one day (which I took a photo of, of course!) and I used it on this page, which explains the title. My Ty is one sweet little boy. Here's his note, since you can't see it on the page too well...


This next page is about my crabby waker upper, don't mess with this kiddo when he first wakes up! He's getting better though! I'm sure he gets the morning crabbiness from his mother!

Evander's idea of a clean bedroom.

And some simple Zoo pages, I have LOTS and LOTS of Zoo pictures that need scrapping!




Where supplies for these pages came from: http://digitalblueprint.blogspot.com "Kevins Toy Box" kit, www.designsindigital.com "Zoo Baby" kit & "Mr. Urban" kit by fr designs, Delicious Scraps & Jaydens Mama.

2 really awesome freebies

I have made a habit of looking through freebies offered on designers blogs daily and I came across & downloaded two real gorgeous spring kits! I thought I'd post the designers blogs here because if you digi scrap, these are two good to pass up!

I am about half way done downloading that first kit but here's a simple page I put together with the second kit:

Digging around

I've been on an organizing kick and I have found many discs of digi stuff I saved! I found many surprises and lots of fun bright stuff, perfect for pictures of the boys!I've been in front of the computer too much lately, ADDICTED to digi scrapping and freebie hunting! I am feeling very impatient to get outside and start my garden this year! Tomorrow it's supposed to be 65 degrees outside but it's only a tease because it's supposed to snow this weekend, I really dislike this crazy Wisconsin weather! I did pick up some seeds the other day, here's some of what I plan on planting: While I was in the garden section I was interupted by a 4 year old little boy who needed to go potty so I'll finish my garden shopping some other day! I'm very excited about the garden this year because in the past two years I've done all the hard work and figured out what grows well here. Last year, my corn ended up diseased, big bummer & I won't be trying corn again but green beans did VERY well and tomatoes and peppers do great too so those are staying in the plans! Strawberries do very good too but I have mice that like to come into the garden! I read that if you plant onions and garlic in with the strawberries that the critters will stay away so I plan to try that this year!


Until next time!

Freebie Freak

I've been downloading a ton of freebies from Two Peas, Gunhild Storeide & one fun and bright kit ("Pleasure") from Moninda Scrap...so today I threw a few quick pages together! I've been wanting to scrap our zoo pictures for some time but just felt stumped! Now to finish the rest...

Starting a new scrap blog

I really dislike making the first post on a new blog but here goes; I am Jenni and I am happily married to my husband of almost 10 years, we have three handsome little boys and we are expecting our 4th (and final) child in August!

I have been scrapbooking for about 5 years and switched to all digital scrapping over a year ago. It's a lot less expensive and that's what pushed me to try it & now I enjoy it just as much as I did paper scrapping. I plan to use this blog for all things scrap related and I might throw in a few things about me & the fam from time to time too!

Now that I got my intro out of the way, I just finished downloading some free digital kits at twopeasinabucket.com! So I am off to go play!
