So, this past weekend I ACTUALLY accomplished something! With this pregnancy I have felt like I am walking through sand for the first 19 weeks - Amazing. Thanks to a little liquid iron supplement (GROSS - if you were wondering) I am feeling a bit more like myself.
I finally got G's 1 year pages done in his Birthday Book. This kind of stuff is like college homework to me. It hangs over my head and takes me literally HOURS to complete and then I am usually pretty happy with the outcome. What's also great about starting this now is I will "get to do it" for all of my babies.
And yes, I realize in my quest to "preserve memories" (not scrap book) I take on way too many ways to preserve memories and then have a hard time finishing even one.
And yes, I also realize it is April and his birthday was in October, but at least it's the same year - so whatev. Do you have a birthday book? I didn't think so...
After I finished the Birthday Book I organized my 2010 Christmas Cards, so I could finally put them away.
Now on to start baby #2 Belly Book, finish G's Belly Book and then start G's Baby Book and all for what you say...
Well, really for me to enjoy for the next 50 years and then to impress someone (like I ave my 10 followers) with my "memory preserving" skillz at an estate sale when I am long gone. Estate Sale? And yes, I do consider my 1400 sq ft cottage an estate and you should see all my stuff inside. You will want it when I go - I'm sure of it.
Let's Hear it for me.....I need a nap.
Awesome Accomplishment, Tara! I have maybe 5 scrapbook pages for my youngest two and none for Ella yet, so you are way ahead of me! And even bigger accomplishment to do it while you have a 1 1/2 yr old and are pregnant!! Congrats by the way!!
