S-L-O-W-L-Y.

I decided to make it Mementos and Milestones on each page. Each will have a place for a 5x7 photo, an envelope, and a spot for "milestones." I forgot how tedious the Sizzlits alphas were. Too small to cut with the Cricut well, so this is how they will look. I've got one down eleven to go

My list is coming along. My Rezzum Frezzum computer froze while I was backing up, but it's finally done. I need to shower and hit the grocery store before all the (other) crazies get out there. Here's hoping for no school tomorrow!

God - I hate those school special ed meetings! Even the "good" ones are so draining. It is over and we're back home now - changes will be made to DDs ed plan, but relatively minor ones we can support. I had to be much more forceful than I am used to, though, as one (new, but old, if you know what I mean) teacher just wasn't on the same page. (She seems to be used to getting her own way, but I wasn't backing down and the other teachers weren't leaping up to support her either.)

Walk the dog now - shake out the stress! - and then watch for purple mail...!

Also, lovely baby page, Jennifer! I'm scraplifting your baby book/page idea and using those ACM pre-printed "month" pages you show for the next baby book I'm doing (for one of DS' teachers). The last baby scrapbook I did was similar, but I designed each of the monthly pages myself with titles, major embellies, etc. Took frickin' forever and the couple I gave it to just attended our Super Bowl party and said that...ahem...it is great, but they haven't gotten around to putting ANYTHING in it yet. GRRRRRRRRR! So, all those "monthly milestone" journal boxes and photo mats I made for them 11 months ago - empty! I'm going the easier route this time! Thanks for the tip!!!!

beautiful page Jennifer!

what cart is the envelope from? i love it!

 

[morgansmom2000]

That's a Sizzix die from SU.

Thanks for the compliments, Pam. I wish I could say I was breezing through them, but I'm sooooo AR! Even without embellishments, I over-think it! I'm at heart a very very simple scrapper. I like card stock and paper

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I'm a paper gal myself. I hate to cover the pretties.

Your page looks nice.


Okay, I have 1 CJ done. 1 more to go. I have all the blankets cut to length, squared up and corners cut. Now to cut the fringe. That part takes the longest I think. Little Bit got "tired" less then one side of making the fringe pretty. I think Mom is going to do even more work than she thought.


When does the mail run PBF?

Well all the flights are in the air and while they all have stops they are not in snowy areas so they should all make it in fine tonight!

On the home front things are pretty good and I am ready for our company to arrive - the ones due in before 11pm were stopping somewhere else for the afternoon so I have a little time to myself.

Jennifer- I think you layout looks wonderful!

This is good news! I will keep fingers crossed for uneventful flights.

Jennifer - love the layout!!

Rebecca still thinking of you will keep you in my prayers
Holly wish we were closer, there's always FB, I'll say it again Bubba is special cause he's got a special mom.
Jennifer you're doing a BEAUTIFUL job.
Linda you go girl. I could never manage the gym at that time of the am 1 ours is PACKED and 2 I'm still trying to wake up. I'm up and about at 5:15 but don't really wake up till the boys are out of bed and you are at the gym.

Got one kiddo sleeping what ever he's fighting just won't let go and the other is actually playing quietly in his room with playstation and no volume. He shut his brothers door and everyhting could someone please return my son.......... I'm considering a nap although there is a puzzle, scrap pile and quilt all calling my name on the other side of the room what to do....

Deb - New car? One can dream!

THAT is funny!!

My DH's big idea is to leave work for 2hrs early in the morning, pick me up and take me in way early, then finish his shift when we get back in...pretty good idea

So, after he figures this out, doesn't the boss come and ask me...IF I get in for 9a...will I stay till 5p, without late penalty to give evening shift the chance to get in? SO, then I told him of the DH plan, and he did say any time I get in I can swipe and start to work. I don't have to wait till 630. So, at least they are being flexible like that...

But, can I just say...

I AM SO READY FOR SPRING!!!
