Nesting!!!

So since finding out we are having a girl, i've been nesting like mad!! I've had a 'to do' list written for a while, but i hadn't really started it. This week i've been able to tick a few things off!! I've cleared out a cupboard in our hall for my scrap supplies and started moving my scrap stuff out of my room into it - a hard move, but a necessary one! I've also been sorting all of Calvin's old clothes into sizes and boy/'girl' clothing. I've been blessed with finding a lady at my LSS who is expecting a boy in July and she already has a girl, so we're going to swap clothing - that's going to save us lots!!

Calvin has been a bit sick this week - he's had a temperature, been coughing and throwing up. Poor little guy. He's been sleeping a lot too - which has made it easier to sort my scrap stuff out. Here he is looking very grumpy after he just woke up in the car - Nadine put his blankie on top of his head, and he just let it sit there for ages - so cute!

I've been doing a bit of scrapping lately too - Here's a page of my gorgeous boy with his gorgeous cousins, using some old Scenic Route (it's actually a Christmas range!), some Heidi Swapp stuff as well as a Prima blossom that i've had for ages, but haven't found a use for!

Here's a page i created at my local store on Friday night with some new Crate Paper. I really love the little owl stamp on it - it was a last minute thing so it's not stamped as well as it should be - i just knew that it needed something there!!! I created this page based on a Once Upon A Sketch challenge - the second this month.

Lastly here's a page i did that i'm not real satisfied with. Never mind - can't love every page i do i guess!! It's good that it's finished though. It's been sitting on my desk for a bit half done, so i'm glad it's done.
