Baby Einstein rocks!

WE LOVE YOU

Sweet darlin'

I just started reading this, about 50 pages into it. Loving it! I just finished this last night, it was so good check it out!



Trying to be good and go backward scrapping the "old" stuff! haha I LOVED this outfit, what a PITA to get him into though!

This went backward, I thought it would start with the page but oh well. I hurt my neck somehow, have a Dr. appt. at 4. Uhhh, it stinks, really hard to lug the 21 pound baby around!

Santa Cruz

Love taking the baby there on Fridays!

We saw Nana Aunt Mil and Aunt Bonnie yesterday! So much fun. We went out to lunch at the San Leandro Marina and Billy was perfect, of course haha. Not much new goin gon just trying to stay cool.

FEELIN" HOT HOT HOT!

Maybe this will cool ya down! It is over 100 here today, billy is taking his nap in the living room and it's too hot for me to sit in the bedroom do I'm a prisoner, trying to be as stealthy and quiet as possible!

We go to Billy's first Babies and Books class at the library tonite. Can't wait, I think Aaron is going to the first one with him then I will go to the next.

We're BAAA--AAACK!

Quick one I did of Billy this morning, I tweaked it a little after I photographed it but battery in camera is charging.

This is from Santa Cruz on Friday, we went to see Eddie Money (said like Eddie Mun-EEEEEE) at their free concert series. It was PACKED we got there a couple hours before the first set and the first two parking lots were sold out already. We got to sit in our normal spot but had to share the table with some crazy stoned ladies. OK we didn't HAVE to but Aaron was in the bathroom and I was too chicken to tell them no!

S is for showers, they're good enogh for me!

Good times at Noni's. Our new place doesn't have this kind of faucet, looks like we'll be heading to Osh!

Time flies when you're having fun!

Baby is 6 months, UNBELIEVABLE!

He has a weird rash or something on his mouth, we took him to the Dr. but of course it was gone once we got there, so I don't know what it is.

Can't wait to see Aaron, it's been about a week and a half, too long for me! I'm sure he's enjoying restful nights!

in v-town

We are in Valencia right now, not much to to update, but having a good time and switching off taking care of the baby at night. Score! Saaw Jen and got to scrap with her at the scrap store on Lyons, good times! Baby's crying got to go....

Big Boy

Look at that sweet face, LOVE IT!

Little Ducky

Another one from the crop, I love this photo!

calm

Notice a theme running through our photos SLEEP! haha This is one I did at the crop last weekend, the last one of the night, it was the most simple but took me the longert I was tired by the end!

Baby slept until 3:30 last might woot-woot! Unfortunately I was SO exhausted I went to bed at 7:30 and woke up at 11:00 then I couldn't go back to sleep!

perfect

accidentally printed an extra of this so I decided to use it. I love this photo!

NSD

There was a challenge to take this layout and scraplift to your own and below is what I came up with, a lot less "artsy" but I still like how it turned out.
This was a dare to scrap which smell you like the most, I picked Lake Tahoe, I love the pine trees and the fresh air! I also could have said my LEAST favorite smell was old casino bathrooms! That is for another day I guess!



Yep yesterday was National Scrapbooking Day! I got a few things done, not much cause baby is getting his "toofers" and pretty stinkin' misrable even with tylonal. Aaron went to the city to see Drive By Truckers with Tommy-boy so I was on my own. I did get a few thing done, wish I hadn't stayed up (like 10:20 is staying "up") because the baby woke up every hour and was up from 4-6. We have started the no cry sleep solution so there is no talking, that's a lot of time together with no talking! 2 nights ago when I waled back in the room from getting the bottle Aaron ws playing with the baby and no kidding I emphatically said, "THERE"S NO TALKING!!!!!!" He was very surprised but didn't say another word. So, without further ado here are the layouts from NSD

Things we love

Just playing around with my stash. These are photos mary took when she was watching the baby when I was sick.

Dear lord

these bananas really stink, if you could see to it that she doesn't buy them again I will be eternally grateful. We put them in cereal this morning with much better luck! I figured it was the texture.

funny faces over here!

gotta love em! I have no idea what was going on this day though.
