project life update

Hiya!
I've got two weeks of project life up today :)

week 12:


and week 13:


Pregnancy's still going well :) I'm 5 months along and our little girl is measuring perfectly! We're working on her nursery, the dresser and crib are put together, the glider is ordered, and i have to repaint this week (we picked a light turquoise and decided we didn't like it so i'm repainting the walls a light pink with a darker pink stripe) I've got a design to do list for Jeff for some of her artwork :)
can't wait to share it when it's all done!!!

have a good one!

week 11

it's been a super exciting few days around here!
on Saturday I wound up in the emergency room for 4 hours (apparently i have gallstones!) and yesterday Jeff and I found out that we're having a girl!!! so so so excited! 

here's week 11 (and i'm only one card away from being done with week 12! caught up again!!!)



the weather is warming up, the sun is shining, and i'm going to have a little girl. so happy :)
have a great day!

Project Life weeks 9 & 10

I've got two weeks of Project Life to share today. They were two kind of empty weeks and i just couldn't figure out how to fill up a design a or b page so i went with the itty bitty design h :)
it was basically two weeks of meh. we found an amazing pizza place...but i can't keep pizza down anymore (i learned that night). we went out for dinner and a movie with some friends and had a good dinner, but then i had to sit through an awful movie (p.s. i really didn't like oz the great and powerful!). The highlight of both weeks was finding sweetarts at target (after i'd checked about 5 other stores and a movie theater and all i could find were sweetart gummies. travesty). i bought 3 boxes and a bag of easter shaped sweetarts and have been happily munching away on them ever since (except for when i need to take breaks because eventually they make my mouth kind of raw!)

week 9:


and week 10:

have a good one!

is it spring yet?

Spring keeps teasing me. The weather will be beautiful one day, nice and warm-ish in the 60s, sun shining, flip flop and frappuccino weather. The next day it pops back down to the 40s with wind and some rain. boo to that. I bought the comfiest and prettiest maternity maxi skirt yesterday and the weather will be too cold and rainy this weekend to debut it. again. boo.

to encourage spring to hurry up and get here to stay, i have another older layout to share today :)

i never have the patience/desire/skill to garden - but i love other people's flowers and i really miss seeing my mama's pretty little garden now that she moved to CA :)

have a lovely weekend! (and i hope your weather is nicer than ours will be!)

sigh...i miss sushi

I am having the BEST week! 
I'm taking Shimelle's Cover to Cover class right now and i'm reorganizing all of my layouts and planning so many more to make. This class is doing exactly what I hoped it would do. I've never been a big everyday scrapper (though i'd really like to be) I started off my scrapbooking with disney albums - and i'd scrap every single bit of a trip but i never knew what else to scrap - then the past couple of years i've added a little bit more of non-travely pages but i never really had a direction - and then when i started project life regularly that kind of usurped all other craftiness for the past year [as a side note - it's awesome to live your life like you're about to have a baby! I'm trying to make everything i love & everything that's important to me a part of a regular routine so *hopefully* it'll all be a little bit easier to keep up with once the baby gets here] so anyhow - i pulled my layouts all out of my albums yesterday and reorganized them - and now i have an idea of how to fill my albums and i'm so excited to get started with everything now - i might even start scrapbooking my wedding and honeymoon before my 4th anniversary this may :)

anyways- while i was pulling out all of my layouts i realized there were quite a few i'd never shared here so i thought i'd start with this one from our anniversary last year (so missing sushi during this pregnancy!)



lots and lots of Amy Tangerine Sketchbook on this page - it makes me happy :)

have a great day!

Project Life week 8

goodness gracious i'm sleepy this morning! I decided not to type my post last night - i figured typing it in the morning would give me something to do while Jeff's in the shower. i definitely did not take into account the stupid sleepy brain i have in the morning. oops.

it's not entirely on purpose - but i seem to be sticking to color themes for my weeks a bit more this year, a different color every week, but definitely an overall shade for the page. apparently this week was mustard. This was a slow week (as evidenced by a lunch date with a friend taking up a whopping three pockets)  but overall i think i can live with it :)


i saw oz the great and powerful this weekend - worst movie of the year. some of the people in the audience clapped though (unless they were just as excited for it to be over as i was) so i won't put out a don't go see it blanket statement - but really, the cg was awesome (especially the flying monkey's face - superb job) and that's really the only positive thing i have to say about the entire 130 minutes. so go see it at your own risk :)

have a great day!

project life weeks 6 and 7

oh Friday - i've been waiting for you all week. i've been making a bit more of an effort to be a good wife and i got up with Jeff this week to help him get out the door on time (which just sucks. i don't have to be anywhere in the morning so i think getting up at 5:30 is just evil. especially since i think i should get more sleep while i'm pregnant as my sleep will never be the same once Baby gets here!) so anyways - looking forward to the weekend and sleeping past 7 :)

 today i have week 6 and 7 to share with you and after this week we should be down to one project life post a week and hopefully other crafty fun can commence :)
i love love love my amy tangerine calendar stamp! LOVE IT i tell you.

here's week 6 - this was the first time we got to see Baby! - super awesome

and here's week 7!
(i was so nervous to stamp on that wood card! eek!)

hope you have a lovely weekend! I'm going to work in the shed a little bit tomorrow, organizing and purging, which makes me incredibly happy! I'm so anxious to clean out the Baby's room so we'll be able to start decorating as soon as we know the sex and i'm on a purging warpath - i've gotten rid of so much stuff in the past couple of weeks i'm itching to keep my streak going :) Then tomorrow night we're going out to dinner (our favorite Japanese place: Ninja Sushi! -don't worry - no sushi for the knocked up girl!) and then going to see Oz the Great and Powerful with some friends (i'm not holding out any great or powerful hopes for this movie - the reviews i read kind of echoed my expectations - but we'll see). bye for now!
