Words of my life....

When I stand before God at the end of my life, I hope that I will not have a single bit of talent left and I can say, "I used everything you gave me." -Erma Bombeck

Catching Up!



&


Days 8, 9, 10, & 11

Days without Daddy seem SO long. This week has gone by a lot faster than last week. Each minute was dragging on last week. Matthew and I have pretty much had the same schedule every day.

6:30 am – Wake Up
7:30 am – Out the door to daycare/work
5:30 pm – Get home (dinner)
7:30 pm – Bath time, teeth brushing, book, and bed (for Matthew)
8:00 pm – Mommy quiet time (scrapping, reading, cleaning, etc…)
11:00 pm – Bedtime

It keeps things really easy and the time flies this way. The only thing that really stinks is the weekends. Too much free time.

Matthew got to go to the big daycare for two days this week due to our provider’s daughter having surgery. He was SOOOO excited to be going to the “big boy school”. It was so cute to see him practically dragging me down the hallway to his classroom. It really makes me realize that he is almost ready for school. Its sad in a way but at the same time, I am so excited for him.

Contest at TheScrapbookSite.com

On Tuesday, Diana talked me into entering another 6 week long contest. I wasn’t really looking for any more obligations at this point, but I figured it would give me a reason to scrap every night and meet new scrapper friends. TheScrapbookSite.com is actually a GREAT site! I am SO happy that I found another possible site to draw in some new talent for the magazine!

The voting starts this weekend (Sunday) and will run for a week at a time. (Watch your emails for a little note from me!) The rules state that we cannot post our layouts until the week after, but we can link back to their gallery. You can check out my week one layout here:

Rich told me that you cannot view this until you register, so go ahead and register at the link below which will also save you some time in getting ready to vote on Sunday! (hint, hint)

Matthew and his trucks

This boy LOVES his trucks. We played outside for a little over an hour with his trucks in my unused flower bed. I practically had to drag him inside. They made for the CUTEST layout (hint hint again!).

Scrap Room Fix-up Project

I am in the process of cleaning up our office/scrap room. We have moved boxes THREE times now to THREE different states and its about time we went through everything and PURGED. SO this is my major project while Rich is gone.

OK that is it for me today. Hope everyone is doing well!!! OH OH OH and family, I am really trying to return phone calls. I am not avoiding you, there are just not enough hours in the day. I will call everyone back by this weekend. I LOVE YOU ALL!!!!!

-Brianne (& Matthew)
