Well, since Jonathan went back to Iraq after his R&R I have been keeping my self busy with crafts and of coarse my little man Jace. Here is what we have been up to as of late.
Mini Scrapbook Albums, this one isn't done yet. It still needs the stamping and the journal entries done.
These are those board book scrapbooks. I recommend them to all you scrapbookers. You take any old children's book that has the cardboard pages and then rip out the pages and begin your own scrapbook. I have a whole pile from goodwill (50 cents on half day) that are awaiting my many pictures I printed from traveling in Europe.
I also attended my very first Bead Diva party, it happened to be down the street from our bunko night so we all hit it up. This is my first ever necklace I made. They had so many cute beads it was hard to choose, but I love how it turned out. I then had to head to Michael's to buy some of my own beads to create more, I couldn't resist.
I might have a new obsession, BEADS
Aren't they cute
This project I saw on a blog for cool wall art. I gave it a shot for my Mom's wall with some of our Europe pictures from their 3 week visit with me.
These are done on Styrofoam boards with spray adhesive and ribbon for the sides. It was a bit more of a pain than expected but that's cuz my pictures didn't all lay smooth. but not bad for a first attempt at these.
Sarah I finally finished his name blocks for above his crib. Don't ask me if they are hanging though. Thanks for talking me into this paper, I love the finished product.

Today I was getting ready on the floor below Jace and noticed he got really quiet. I looked up to see he had fallen asleep on his changing table, which by the way he loves sitting up here by the mirrors.
This is usually how you will find Jace, fingers in his mouth sucking away
We tried out the johnny jump up, he wasn't thrilled about it yet. I am hoping he will enjoy it more when he gets bigger cuz I loved mine when I was a baby

Porter man and Jace. He loves Jace so much and always wants to hold him and sit by him. It's cute.
