Every year Tally Scrapper
hosts weekly challenges
during TV Survivor Season.
I try to participate every week,
because not only does it motivate
me to try something new but it
also helps you complete projects.
During Week #1 the challenge was to
create a map layout, use at least
three different patterned papers &
follow the idea for map from Kelly Purkey.
I have yet to finish the album
from our 5th Anniversary so this
will make the perfect cover page.
I Cheated alittle :0).
I used my 50 states Cricut
Cartridge to start my map and
cut it into pieces from there.
Once assebled I used one photo from each
place we visited and used circles and
ovals to cut them out and attach to the page.
I used twine and arrow brads to indicate
where each place was located on the map.
Thanks for looking
and Happy Scrappin'!
Hello Friends,
It's been so long since I posted.
July I think was my last post.
Since then life has
certainly become different.
August 22, 2011 we welcomed into the
world our beautiful little Cupcakes.
Olivia Marie, 4lbs 15 oz, 16 1/2 inches
& Ava Danielle 4lbs 4oz, 16 1/4 inches.
The Cupcakes were 4 weeks
early, but so healthy.
Olivia however was a little to excited
coming into the world and took some liquid
into her lungs with her first breath and
it caused complications with her breathing.
She stayed on oxygen for alittle over 3 weeks.
Now Olivia is happy and healthy little baby.
Ava has been a little diva from the start,
she lets you know what she wants.
She's also a happy and healthy little baby.
They just got to 2 months old as of Saturday.
Both are double the weight just about and
slowly fitting into thier larger newborn
and 0-3 month clothing.
Being the proud mommy and daddy we've already
taken them to Sears and Walmart for photos.
*Tip- Sears has a better set up &
ends up the same price as Walmart!
Not mention we've taken lots of
photos since we brought them home.

What a difference just a few weeks.
Where did all the chunk come from? :0)
I have been crafting, though now it
takes a few days to finish projects.
So I'll slowly be loading new projects
here on the blog over the next week.
I hope to drop in more often and
share a tutorial or two soon.
Happy Scrappin'!
Every week the belly gets bigger
and less I can move as easily!
But I'm excited and it mean the
babies are getting bigger and
it's closer to when they arrive!
Here I am at 27, 29 and 30 weeks.
The babies like to be silly during
ultrasounds so the last two growth
ultrasounds they've hidden their
little faces and the Techs have had
trouble viewing their hearts to make
sure everything is growing correctly.
But today they made an appearance
and I was one very happy mommy-to-be!
Seeing their little faces for the
first time made it even more real!
Yes the kicking makes it real but
to see faces left me in awe...
You can follow our baby updates every
week here: Twin Lambs 2011.
Thanks for looking!
My husband has worked hard
making the nursery as
wonderful as it is and even
moved the furniture for me
a couple times.
Who knew getting two cribs
into a room would be so hard!
Here he is preparing the room.
Here is the room once
I got to help decorate.
The trees are vinyl wall stickers
from Target and the furniture is
from Ikea! Yay for Ikea!
thanks for looking.
I began a pregnancy album with
the first ultrasound photo months
ago, and have slowly made layouts
with out photos for later.
But photos have stared to
pile up and they need to
make a home in the album.
I've done 5 layouts the
last couple days and I'm
so excited to share!
If this mojo keeps up I'll
be all caught up for this
album, for now any way.
I'll be splitting this
up into 3 days of posts!
Being pregnant with twins
has been amazing especially
to see their grown.
Here we are at 19 weeks,
two little heads
and two little babies.
During this ultrasound
Baby A was being shy,
however Baby B at least
let us see her profile.
This week is another Belly
Shot and the Baby Shower!
So there will be plenty
more photos to scrap.
See you again soon!
Thanks for looking!
