Our trip to Sunshine Beach/Noosa...

Isobel starting Ballet at Dance Desires with Miss Allanah, also one of my fav LOs of 2009

Our 3rd round of IVF and yes I am pregnant...love being pregnant!

Isobel started swimming lessons on her own.
Camping at Cumberland river.

new post

yep that's the title...nothing fancy....just thought I would do a NEW post....

had a good week....Isobel had swimming everyday which was great for her development and progress but it was NOT good for her behaviour at home...OMG what a terrible week....every night crying etc etc!!! So she has promised that today will be a better day - so far so good!

Scrap wise this is what I have done...

I have the JAN GIRL KIT and wow I think this is my FAV kit ever.




and this is the latest IB sketch which is also the Jan Sketch ch over at Scrapbook Savvy.



and I am now 30 weeks....so only about 9 weeks to go....yay!!! we are all sooooo excited about the bub and can't wait for it to be here. Isobel told me the other day she wants it to come out now! Unfortunately it needs a little more cooking!

BON'S January Cybercrop starts this TUESDAY....check out the timetable HERE. I'm not on the DT now...so watch out girls....I can win bingo again!!!

OK off to pilates and then to Spotlight to get some material to make a skirt...

Have a good day:)

Isobel's new room

Well I was in panic mode before Xmas but not ABOUT xmas, but about the mess and furniture that was in the playroom which is to become the baby's room and about redecorating Isobel's room. But what a fantastic husband I have...he worked day and night for 6 days straight and now the playroom is ready to put the baby's stuff in and Isobel has a new room!


Just the one LO to share for the last few days...been very tired...and CLEANING...will definitely scrap this weekend!

Off to the beach for the day today, it's going to be 38 here!

Final format and STUCK! Sketches

I think this is my final format...or I may get rid of the spots and ribbons....don't know if they are me! What do you think?

Did I tell you I made the CT of STUCK! sketches??? Love those sketches and applied for the CT and got accepted VERY VERY VERY excited about this!!!....check out the other successful CTers HERE and here is the Sketch for January 2010.

Been scrapping, but very very tired so will upload tomorrow, before we go to the BEACH!

New format

what do you think?

I've decided to do a banner each month (stole the idea from CHARMANE KOCH) and then the next year they can be part of a calendar....

and each month I will make the banner out of the kit from BON'S from that month.

So this month, most of the banner is from Bon's Jan Kit....available here

Just did this

this arvo....using the JAN GIRL KIT from Bon's....mmmmm love this kit!

and this is only using ONE of the PP plus a small snippet of another textured piece...PLUS i added in some gorgeous BG rubons from Bon's as well...

off to do ANOTHER layout with this kit!
