Right Now...

I am holding Baby T and having a hard time getting anything typed! He just grabbed one of my papers and everything just fell on the floor...I have 5 nephews here visiting for the weekend...2 in the living room playing XBox 360 and the rest are in the family room play Playstation 3...I am tired and ready for bed...but will unlikely make there soon! I am having a blast!! I would love to get some scrapbooking done...but it's unlikely that's going to happen either!! I did get 3 LO's done last night though...stayed up way too late and drank 1 glass of wine too many!

It was a beautiful sunny day and I forgot to get pics of all the kids today...I am so mad because it's supposed to rain all day tomorrow...oh well I will still have to get some pics...4 of my nephews live in Arkansas and I haven't seen them for well over a year...they grow up so fast...I want to make sure I get a bunch of pictures to scrap and have!

I am so proud of myself...I finished the LOAD for January...I can't believe I actually made it! Below are some more of my fav recent LO's...TFL!! Have an awesome day!!

I did this LO for my SB Bible Study...

Busy Month Already!!

Wow...how time just seems to fly it's already the middle of the month!! I am so excited...I have been able to keep up with the BPS "Get a LOAD of this" class despite the fact that I am down with bronchitis. I am starting to feel a bit better but still very tired...the antibiotics will hopefully start kicking in soon!! I thought I would share some of my favorite LO's I have done so far this year! TFL!!

Who's going to go to the Superbowl?? I am routing for...well I am not sure yet...but definitely not Green Bay...sorry just not a GB fan...probably the Patriots...maybe the Giants...doesn't really matter since the Bears didn't fare so well this year...:{!

Took this pic this week...he's growing so fast!

My fav pic right now...it's from Friday night!

Whew!! I am still here!!

What a crazy time it has been!! Having a new baby in the house really is exciting & tiring...then add in Nat's birthday, Thanksgiving, my birthday, Christmas & New Years!! Whew...been busy but having a great time!! Though I am getting a nasty chest cold that I hope doesn't last too long...it's just beginning so I am taking it easy...gonna scrap & nap all day!!

We have had a very blessed Season!! I am truly loving my job and the time I am getting to spend with my family! During November & December I didn't get much scrapping done, but I have been on a roll since after Christmas!

Baby T on Jan 2nd!!

4 Generations!!
Nonna & Baby T Christmas Day!
