Presents and cards

And another entry from me again!
Last wednesday I got a big surprise from my friends at the scraptastisch messageboard
They send me a recipebook made of panrags (right word?) with lovely spread with even lovelier recipes in them! Just to cheer me up because we had to replace our little cutie doggie which made me really really sad and because I was so sick of the pregnancy at first. I was soooo surprised and moved to tears by this! Thank you all girls! Here are the pics!






Then there's Emilys challenge and I finished one card. I really hope I can keep up this year, as I didn't finish the Deck of Me (still working on it!). Here it is:


And last but not least, here's page 3 of my pregnancy journal. I am not doing it in the right order but I will put them in the album in the right order eventually. This little one is about the day I told my DH we were expecting and the pic is a bouquet with a big bear in it that he gave me! The pin and wire (around the pic) were both in the bouquet by the way. Not really happy about how it turned out but it'll do! What do you think?

Pregnancy Journal

Hello again!
I think I am back, on track with blogging and scrapping! And that while I am also busy doing the babyroom/nursery and changingtable, what a job!!!

So I am participating in a challenge on a messageboard where we agreed we would all NOT buy any scrapstuff untill we finished 25 layouts with the stuff we have. Well I finished my sisters weddingalbum (scroll down) which seriously made the number go down like crazy! But still there's a lot of scrapstuff left! So I started a pregnancy journal. I haven't bought stuff to make the actual album (because I couldn't) but I did make 2 lo's and I am working on the 3rd already. Here they are:






I am also working on the 52Q challenge Emily Falconbride thought of for this year. I finished my first card, the second one is in the making but haven't made pics yet, will do so soon!

*** Baby update***
I am doing great, so is the baby, nausea is going away bit by bit, replacing it by hunger even in the middle of the night! My bladder is not working with me as I have to go pretty much every 30 minutes (at night about 3 times) and I think I felt the little one already! It started a few days ago! This monday I'll have a checkup again, can't believe it has been 16 weeks (and 1 day) already! Still tired though, and in bed early, but that's ok. Only the last few days I woke up really early and couldn't go back to sleep again, result: me being awake since 4.30 and up since 5.30!!.
Have a great day all!
Love

Cold walk in the snow

Hi there!
Well this morning I took a walk as the weather looked awesome, blue sky but cold. It has been a while since Yazzie left us and it was a bit emotional for me to walk the same route as I did when I walked him, I miss him!!! But I loved the walk though. I took my camera and here are some pics.
A not so scary spiderweb


some kind of plant that looks lovely like this


Even my shadow looks pregnant! There's no point in denying LOL!!!

Some pics to show (long post)

Hello girls!
First of all, and a bit late I know,... Happy 2009! I hope you had a great and safe new years'! We did! A very quiet and easy one as we were in bed at 00.45 am!!! Didn't mind it at all!
I also told you we were redoing the house, and we also bought new dvd-cabinets for in our livingroom, so this is what our little cosy corner looks like now!


The rest will be shown later on, still have to make pics of my new scraproom but it's a mess as it is in use! Yes really it is! I am finishing up my sisters wedding album, just 4 or 5 more pages and I am done, finally! After that I'll clean up and make some pics. This week I will start on finishing the baby's room as well. Probably tomorrow I'll buy some paint for the woody-area's and some for the closet (where you change the babys diapers on) and try and wrap that up by the end of the week. Then Igor can paint the walls and ceiling and then wallpaper 2 other walls and then.... it's all done! Yeah! Can't wait!

I also started scrapping a december daily but couldnt keep up because of the holidays, Igors 2 weeks off of work and the chors we did in the house but these are the pages I did do (missing 1 pic but it was a blur) maybe I'll finish it in the next couple of weeks but I am not sure. Maybe just do the story of our holiday instead of daily stuff. Another attempt by the end of the year ;-)


I am doing fine, had 2 painful days as the baby grew fast, but luckily that's better now. Maybe I was just too busy, who knows! I am still tired and sleep a lot but I coping with it. Still a bit sick to my stomach but mainly because I don't know what to eat anymore as I don't like the taste of lots of things now, funny huh? We'll survive, just a few more weeks ;-) (me trying to be optimistic lol).
Well that's it for now, cu later!
