The concept of time

Jasmine, sitting on our bed while I got my clothes this morning: Let’s wrap presents.

Me: we don’t have any presents.

Jasmine: it’s your birthday!

Me: well, no, not for a loooong time.

Jasmine: oh, in two weeks?

Me: no, even longer.

Jasmine: on Tuesday?


And a few new layouts:

Sometimes life gets in the way...

As you may know, I've been working on a "101 in 1001" list. I'm now down to the last 8 months. I've gotten a long ways, but still have a bunch to do. I'm sure I won't get 100% of them done, but am working at it with more focus again lately.
Is it cheating, if I take some that I wasn't able to do (like walking 2-3 times a week during pregnancy...I'm not going to have another opportunity to do that one) and replace it with another one? Part of me considers it cheating, but part of me thinks that makes it more challenging, because I'm not just replacing it with something I've already done.
But sometimes it's just hard to do everything you plan to. I really doubt I'll get in a nap every day for a week, too. I've had to adjust some of them to my lifestyle as it is now, things like my inbox. Originally, I'd said I would clear my inbox for an entire week. But that's tough...I get letters from people who really would be flabbergasted if I suddenly responded instantly, and then went back to not writing for weeks. So doing it every week for a month, I feel, is more productive and a better stretch. Maybe it will keep me doing it beyond the month too...I'd like to think I could write back to people with more regularity again!

Okay, Josh...your turn to write about your Father's Day Present ;)

Catching Up (LOTS of pictures)

Last night we tried sleeping in our own room. It worked well, except that Jasmine woke up at 5 and her crying woke Bekah up. Jasmine went back to sleep, but Bekah didn't. Makes for an early start to the day! Now it's 10:30 and I'm seriously ready for a nap!

I'm behind again on layouts. Sorry! First, though, a picture of my new hair :) I told her I wanted to really notice the highlights, since last time I could barely see them so no one else noticed either. If I'm going through that much to get them done, I want them seen!! Um, they are :D


Here's the cover to a book I made for the girls. It went together really well and I was all excited. "I can do hybrid! I can do hybrid!" (for non-scrappers, "hybrid" is some combination of digital scrapping and paper scrapping. So the fact that I printed out the finished pages and glued them to an old board book means I've learned to do something new and "hip" (ha!))

And the inside. (If you notice that you're not in here, that's because I didn't have pictures of you with the girls. So if you'd like to make it into the next book, you know what you need to do!)







And a few other pages I've made recently:
