3 Girls and 1 Guy

Once again, I have failed at my blogging attempt!!  Life was just way too crazy.  My little one had acid reflux, and it was causing all of us some stress.  Once she got on medication, it was so much better!  Thankfully, she has outgrown the reflux but old habits die hard.  I still have a towel by my bed just in case she gets sick - LOL!  My little one is now almost 2 years old and she is more than a handful.  She is like Velcro to me all the time -- my little shadow!  Things will get easier as she gets older, but right now, she is extremely high maintenance.  Totally different from my experience with my older daughter who is now nine.

As far as my scrappy life goes, I have actually been back in my craft room.  We have been in our new house for over a year now, but I still don't have my room totally setup.  I still have four huge bins in storage that contain tons of scrappy goodness.  Of course, since tons of my stuff is still in storage, I did what any dedicated scrapper would do!  I went right out and bought more scrappy stuff!  The difference is that I'm actually using a lot of it.  I only get to scrap on Wednesday afternoons, Thursdays, and Fridays.  Not every week, but I try to get as much time in as possible because it just flat out makes me grumpy when I don't get to create.  I guess since I don't get as much time to scrap with the little one around, it makes me quit over-thinking things and helps me to just commit things to paper.  It has also helped me to get over my fear of cutting pretty paper!  I used to save paper for that special layout.  You know what I'm talking about!!  You've all done it!  Well, no more!!  Now, I just use it!!  I'd much rather be able to look at the pretty papers in my albums.  And, since it has been forever since I have posted any scrappy goodness on my blog, I thought I would share a layout that I completed recently.

 

 

This is actually a picture from 2013 of my little one and me at her first preschool Halloween party.  All of the papers are by Bella Blvd.  I had a lot of fun making this one!

 

Well, let's see if I can actually post again before next year!!  Don't hold your breath!
