4 weeks

My little guy is four weeks old today. Sleeping wise we have our good days and our not so good nights like last night. He was up from 1:30 to 3:30am, does not make for one happy mommy. The night before he slept from 11pm to 4am and it was the best straight 5 hours I got.

Micah's favorite saying these days, I want milk, "warm milk" and come back later and nite nite me okay? so I can touch your hair and suck my thumb. He says all of this while you're going to the kitchen to get his milk warmed up for 30 sec in the microwave...the boy just does not drink cold milk. And he still has this quirk with holding your hair while he puts himself to sleep. His favorite thing to watch is wow wow wubsie on Nick Jr and We're Back which is a dinosaur video we had to return to the library.

Kenzie can write her entire name now and just loves to hold her little "Paxi" as she nicknames her baby brother.

And a few layouts to share: Little Yellow Bicycle line from Scarlet Lime kit



Crate Paper from TSR's kit


I'm really not caught up with all my photos as this would look like...just been printing from my home computer lately and it's more fun to scrap recent photos.

Photographers in Training

We had to introduce the mute button this week. Lam had me run to Target to get milk for the kids and when he was left with a crying baby and no milk this was what got him thru until Mommy came home.


It is week 11 of my photography class, my subjects aren't always willing to cooperate with me but if I let them play like they are in charge it sometimes works

Hello June

I've already scrapped this photo but its a favorite so i'm going to hang this in my office at work


Inspired blueprints sketch #23


Make-n-take layout from my LSS, they were demoing the chomper tool, i don't round my corners a whole lot so for $25 I was not sold on it.


52 sketches 52 weeks


And I can't go w/o sharing pics of my baby, horrible focus on pax but i love the lighting on kenzie...still learning to shoot in manual.


and i have a new appreciation for newborn photographers...its harder than i thought even when they are sleeping


The kids ramshackled our closet and raided their daddys work shirts

Lightning Bug

My poor lightning bug has had each of his heel pricked 4 times...yes today was the 7th time getting his biliruben tested at the doctor's and hopefully tomorrow's appt will be the last. They told us we could take him off the light today.


I love spending time with Paxton and just watching his facial expressions. I caught a few smiles the last two days but didn't have the camera quick enough to capture it.

October Afternoon is probably my favorite paper line.

A few layouts using my Scarlet Lime kit.
