More of the "baby"

She is three! Holy smokes! Off to Wal-Mart we go for our anual photo.....and then I created this layout with them....

Happy Birthday to Olivia

Here is my cutie enjoying the happy birthday tune being sung to her......

Week 1

This is one of the layouts I did for week one in the contest going on at LP.....

This week is Olivia's birthday, I cannot believe she is going to be 3...time flies. I'll have some pictures by mid week of her parties...yes plural, we have much family.

Off to finish up on my ATCs, need to mail them to Lisa pronto!

Pure Neglect

Poor thing, been so busy.

I've posted a copy of Olivia's day care picture.....I thought they turned out quite nice.....cost a lot more that school photo's though. Very worth it.

Getting ready for the next crop in a few weeks. Lots to do and it's going to be fun! I am going to make some valentines card for Olivia's day care friends for one of the make and takes. I have a few other layout ideas up my sleeve too.

Josh is crazy about lego now. Not sure how that happened. First it was the leapster, cubeworld, bakugan, webkins (still) and now it's lego......could have picked a cheaper hobby...HAHA I should talk.

Olivia's birthday is around the corner and I don't think a day goes by when she doesn't remind me....."e-yah's birthday soon mama" so cute. They must be pumping her at day care about it cause it isn't coming from me. She wants little pony for her birthday. I bought her a new kitchen and I gave it to her already so I will wrap up my little pony for her. Then she will have more things to open on her special celebration weekend...good grief.

We are celebrating three birthdays this month, my mum, Olivia and my nephew DJ.....so I'll have to make three cakes for them all.....yep I can do it. They will all be here celebrating at the end of the month.

Layouts are coming along, my room is almost organized and I have a very very large table in there and new lights!! Yippee!! Three fluorescent lights, they are soooo beautiful, it's perfect. I could use a 20 foot usb cord, is there such a thing? Duh,......I would really like to hook up the design studio and sure cuts a lot (thanks April!) to my pc.

Time for bed....another busy day at work tomorrow and bin and sil are coming over tomorrow to install my new bathroom, and Josh has a hockey game...holy smokes! Night all.....

Busy busy busy....

It's new years eve and hubby just went upstairs to pour me a drink....baileys and milk please! The hockey game sounded so exciting earlier tonight, I could hear my boys getting excited upstairs while I was scrapbooking in my room. Lots going on, Christmas is over, the house is tidy again, seems so bare with the tree down.

Here are a few layouts that I did today, the last few days have been nice at home, work is just around the corner though!

The company children's Christmas party...

Rich's employer hosts a wonderful Christmas party every year and this December they held it at the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum. I have not had the pleasure of visiting the museum before and was I shocked to see such a marvelous place. The event was held in the middle of all the airplanes.....if you can imagine all the war planes in a very large hanger and then an open space for tables, food and activities....it was so wonderful.

Olivia was doing really well as we talked about going up to see Santa and I really thoought she might be just fine.....but no.....the picture here in the post shows her screaming. After she opened her gift she asked for another one...

My boy kid......

He needs to wear glasses but won't. So I took him to see a different doctor to see if maybe the prescription was a bit off in the first pairs, she gave him half the strength so he could adjust easily and then move on to his full prescription. So we went to our favorite glasses place and he was trying on all kinds of glasses when he picked up this horrible yellow pair and stuck them on his face. He is not too happy with having to wear glasses so I let him pick out the frames he likes, kind of gives him some say in the whole thing. I don't like them but he LOVES them. What can I say? I guess Bono has yellow glasses...what do I know? The man looks at me and says "Do you really want them?" I replied "if he's gonna wear them then I'm gonna buy them"

Tonight we picked up his glasses and he's had them on all night. So far so good. He does have a "normal" pair too. In the grand scheme of things does it really matter what they look like? I couldn't care or less. I love that he has the confidence to pick them out and wear them...gosh I hope everything goes ok at school tomorrow....LOL.
