Memories~

Well I'm (finally) back and with a lo too! lol

So this is a lo that I did using a pic of one of my younger brothers. He's 8 and is always so "talkative", asking at least 100 questions a minute! But when he does stop to study something, it's as if his whole "normal" world stops and he's just taking it all in =)

I'm so happy 'cause it's finally sunny and warm out now so I can start taking my pictures outside!

I din't know what to say for the journaling, so I looked up a bunch of quotes about memories and singled this one out =)

I love the "after-effect" of stitching(even though it takes a really long time and it really gets on my nerves!! lol =))

I had been wanting to use this pic for the looongest time, but I just didn't know how to use it. You know what I mean? Then I was digging through some scrappy stuff and I found a few things, put them together, and now I'm happy! LOL!

New baby girl is doing fabulous! She has reddish hair and huge eyes that are always looking around!

I have lots more LOs that I would looove to post as soon as I get pictures taken of them! I'm heading to Denver tomorrow with dad and 2 of my sisters, and I won't be back 'till Sunday. So as soon as I get back I will have those LOs posted!

Thanks for stoppin' by and have an awesome week!

Pics!

Hey peeps! Yep, still keepin' very bust around here, so these pics of our newest addition to the fam are a little late=)

Here's one of my little bros w/ baby girl=)

And this is me holding baby girl for the first time. I think it was like 2 days after she was born when I got to hold her! And to this day I've still only held her maybe 5 times. Not kidding!,  but that's what happens at my house when you have 8  sibs who are totally baby crazy! (as you can see in the pic, there's a waiting line behind me=) lol!

Awww!!! She's smiling 4 the camera! (I doubt that =))
