Last Day of July

I haven't had anything to update with for a little while now so I have been a bit quiet here. I did manage to get Harry read within a couple of days. I found myself not wanting to start it because it meant THE END. But I got there with a few tears and quite satisfied with how it all worked out! Mark and I also used some of my birthday vouchers to treat ourselves to a Gold Class screening of the HP movie. I have issues with it but still enjoyed it.

I've got a couple of bits and pieces to share so here goes....

Firstly is a layout. They seem to be taking me much longer to complete at the moment. The couch is way too comfy. This is a layout of Ali a couple of hours after she was born. I wanted to put something together that recorded all her stats… It’s a simple one. I got to use my new scallop punch. It’s ace!!! I can make all my own scalloped edges now!

Loving the new papers from Kaiser!!! Gorgeous, double sided papers. Lots of variety and great colours. I have one layout under way using these and a few more planned so I will be able to post them soon.

I popped into the Melbourne Craft & Quilt show on Saturday night. Fiona and I waddled around. Well actually I did the waddling and she walked and carried my bags. What an angel!!!!

I got to visit Debbie at her stand. She’s such a STAR!!!!! No wonder she was kept busy all weekend. It was great seeing all the work from the SM Masters up close as well as the finalists for the Scrapbook Creations Colour Comp. It’s amazing seeing the work up close and the finer details that you don’t notice in the magazines and web.

I also got the meet the lovely Rachael Scholz. Another talented lady. It’s so nice meeting people from ‘the scrapping world’ in real life.

I am down to 37 days!!!!! And it’s almost midnight so let’s call it 36!!

I got so far as to ask Mark to get my suitcase down from the cupboard, which he did. Now I just have to do something about packing it. I am sooooooooo looking forward to meeting this little one. If bubs is a girl though, she will remain nameless still!!!! No idea what we are going to do!!!

What else???? Nothing that I can think of.

Take care.

Countdown...45 Days to go!!!

Just another Tuesday...

So where am I on that count down???

51 DAYS!!!!

That sounds so much better than 7 weeks and 2 days.

Just some fun scrapping last Friday night. I covered two magazine holders for the kid's colouring books. I have another one ready to do this weekend. They are very plain and simple but they look great. (I'll add a photo next time. The camera is out in the car and it is way too cold to venture out there!!!) Best of all the kids are using them and keeping their things tidy!!!! AMAZING!!!!

I have a layout in this months SM. It is in the Mustard Moon challenge section. It's Andrew and Ali with their cousin and some of their second cousins. This didn't photograph very well. It actually looks much better in the mag! LOL!!

I have lots of scrapping to do. Perhaps I should get to it...

It's done!

Yes it's done. My Scrapbooking Memories Masters entry will be posted off later today (seeing that it's just after midnight now). It's nothing fancy but it's me and I am very happy with it. Unfortunatly I can't share any of it though although I am busting to.

I do have a couple of other layouts I can share. Both are double layouts. The first one I started almost a year ago! Eek! Just couldn't get it together but I am really happy now it is done.

This second one is of Andrew and his first fishing trip...or should I say trips. The first page is his unsuccessful trip to the San Remo Jetty and the second page is the success he had at the local trout farm...

I have another one but I am going to keep it aside for the moment as I may send in an entry for the FK ET as well.

Ali and Andrew are slowly getting used to sleeping in the same room. Some nights they are great but others they are little ratbags.

They seemed to sort it out in their own way tonight. I took this pic when I went to make sure they were tucked in earlier.

Now I just have to try and get her down with this giant belly of mine in the way.

Speaking of my giant belly. I think it has spent the past few days in stretching overdrive. Ouch!

Only 59 days until my due date!!!!!!!!!!!

We have been re-setting up the nursery room.It's lovely getting out all the little little stuff again. I might as well enjoy it as it will be the last time. I am happy about that and I am sad about that too.

I haven't managed to recover all of my blog and email information off my old computer yet so I have been a bit slack in keeping in touch. I owe a few emails and lots of blog visits too. Hope to get to all of that during this week.

It's been fun checking out my little tracking map of Blog visits. Adrienne I know which is yours!

Hope this week brings you lots of good things.

Take Care
