Scrapbooking

Anyone who really knows me knows that I don't have a creative/artsy bone in my body. Sure I can do the occasional musical number, but that's as far as the right side of my brain can go.

So recently I've been saying that I want to scrapbook (Jaime has like 25 scrapbooks she's done over the years and they are such an inspiration) and now I am really going to start.

I found this cool website, ScrapBuck where everything is like $1 and it's all pretty cool stuff. So I am going to buy an album, some paper, stickers and whatever else I need to get started. I have no idea where to go from there but I have about 500 pictures of Tyler that I'd love to get into an album. I'm thinking of doing a section for each month he's been alive until he's older then I can do a section for each year.

I inherited some cool scrapbooking stamps and ribbons and stuff from my sister so I have the basics, now I just need some direction. If anyone is really serious about starting scrapbooking, let me know and you can come over and we can do it together.

I would love to come over and scrapbook. I kept thinking that as soon as summer was here I would be free to do whatever I wanted anytime I wanted. But it seems that with the older boys home they are taking up so much time...ugh! They want to go here and they want to go there and I am the one who has to take them. I could bring over Chance and he could babysit while we scrapbook. I am sure he would love it.

HIJACK

This post is not coming to you VIA Jennifer. This is her husband, Erik. I decided to hijack her blog (ah...the things you can do when in possession of another's password) and tell her how I feel about her. This will probably not be posted for long, I am sure as soon as she sees it she will remove it. HERE GOES! Jennifer, my dear, I love you oh so very much. On Monday is our 1 year anniversary! A whole year! That may not seem like much, but my oh my it has flown by quickly. Since you are a relative young'un that year actually represents around 4.76% of your entire lifespan(thus far). I still keep my eye out for things that represent 'US'. Who can forget the 'EJ' Truck? I have never stopped looking for, nor noting 28s as they pop up all over the place. I notice all of the little things you do. I notice the little faces you make. I notice the little noises you make. I notice the slight shifting of your posture in response to my incessant joking. This face was made...

One Month Old

Tyler turned one month old on Friday! He has grown and changed a lot just in the last couple of weeks. It is so much fun to watch him now that he is smiling and holding his head all the way up and clasping his hands together--interlaced as if in prayer. He is the cutest baby (ok, so I'm biased). We've had a hard week though (make that almost two weeks--I've been trying to publish this post for 5 days). The other day he screamed for almost 24 hours straight. Luckily Jaime came over to show me how to help relieve his gas and he calmed down for a couple of hours. He has been up all night, up all day and just kind of hard to deal with. Of course I still love him, which is weird. Usually its hard to love someone who deprives you of sleep. :) Update: Like I said, I have been trying to publish this for almost a week--I have had literally no time between work and a screaming baby and laundry and dishes and cooking and cleaning but alas I think I now have 5 minutes! Anyway, Ty...
