Sunday Scrappin

Time to share scrap again! It's been a few weeks since I've had something to share. I've been distracted busy obsessing over checking things off of my before baby comes list & crafting with my sewing machine. You can check out what I've been up to here {tutorialish} and here if you're interested. Still plenty of household projects to work on but they're mostly smaller projects so I should have more time to focus on my scrappy list again. Plus I need the hubby to put the crib together before I can start making her bedding. Less than 60 days until baby's estimated due date!

Ta-da!:
  • So no picture to show for it but I caught up on some of my journaling this week - 16 layouts, sixteen!
  • Again, no picture but two or three weeks ago Lydia's second album came in the mail and I got all of her pages into a page protector. Almost all of the pages are organized chronologically too!

To-do:
  • Complete more journaling in Lydia's album.
  • Make list of topics left to scrap for Lydia's album - I lost the list I had :( but with her albums organized it shouldn't be hard to figure out. My guess is there are less than half a dozen topics left.
  • Start to catch up on journaling in family album - esp older pictures before I was blogging, this blog will pay off big time when I'm journaling events from 2 years ago!
  • Scrap!
I did find a list of topics for Lydia's album I wrote up about 18 months ago. I can happily say that several are now crossed off my list. Even more happily I can say that I've done several more topics that aren't even listed - crawling, first steps, mommy and me (a few layouts), everyone loves lydia pages, first pony, swinging @ park, first smiles, pb&j, blue eyes, several hospital layouts....ahhh feels GOOD!

  • 3 month photos (only professional ones taken TO DATE)
  • 6 month photos
  • 9 month photos (LOVED the ones I took but they've been in computer jail)
  • 12 month photos (camera was on the FRITZ and I never scheduled that appt. - here's hoping!) and I don't have any '12 month' photos, just what was taken on & around her birthday...maybe I'll find some cute ones from the next month or two?
  • 1st birthday{s}, I had a little celebration at home then a party at my dad's house
  • first baby food/real food (I may not do both)
  • baths in the sink (I have some that I just LOVE so I must - she was a sink baby for a LONG time)
  • first Christmas (I have one Christmas event scrapped but nothing else)
  • summer time/outdoor pics (I *think* I have pictures jailed up that I really liked) these may be done?
  • pictures with Shawn in Class A's not sure...
  • d-day pictures (she was 11 months when he deployed and I think we're in the Army for the long haul so it will hold some significance for her later) Not doing these, going to leave that for family album.
  • Below are pages off hand I know will need to be done.
  • Opening page
  • Closing page
  • Daddy love page(s) - I've done several with mom and daughter pics, those two definitely need their own.

    Since I don't have any scrappy photos I wanted to share a picture of my kids at the strawberry farm yesterday. They had fun, the strawberries are really good and I want to make strawberry jam today.
