a sketch and LO

Scrapbooked my youngest boys 1st day of kindergarten...I'm in no way caught up on scrapping but it felt good to do this LO with him only being a little over a month in to his first year. I actually used a sketch from inspired blueprints. Here's the sketch if anyone else wants to use it too. Your should definitely go check out there blog and see all the wonderful things there design team come up with, their own interpretation of it.

And here is how I used it for me, my interpretation of it.

Wow kids grow up so fast. My mom use to aalways make comments like that and I'd roll my eyes and be like yeah whatever, but wow was she ever right. They get big to fast, :-( it makes me sad but happy at the same time. I get there not my little babies anymore but I get to look forward to all the great things to come in the future!  Well I guess off to more scrapping!

he scrapped with me!!

Ok so I love my scrapbooking but my scrapbooking stuff is in our room, I've kinda taken up an entire side of our room actually lol...but my old man works all day with not many days off and so he doesn't want me sitting in the room scrapping all the time while he's home. So the other night he got home from work and I was scrapping, he'd stopped and got movies on the way home for us to watch together, so he asked me to bring some of my scrapping into the living room so we could spend time together but I could still scrap like I wanted. So I loaded some up, more then was needed of course! Lol, and headed into the living room.

I sat down and started going threw pictures to see what I was going to scrap. Well my old man saw some pictures of my oldest son and grabbed em out. I asked him what he was doing? He said he wanted to scrap too. This surprised me of course, but I was all for it. So I handed over papers and some sketchI had to help him out a little. He went threw picked a sketch and then started going threw papers. He picked out tons of great papers and started cutting them, then he stopped and was looking around, I asked him what he was looking for? He said he wanted that spong thing on a stick for putting the ink on the papers, lol. I handed it over and he went about his business. He ended up doing a great job on his! And he enjoyed it, so that made me happy. So here's his 1st LO!!

And now he's drawing sketches with and for me, its awesome to have him involved and to see why I enjoy it so much! So hopefully I'll be able to get him involved a little more often :-)

its been hectic.....

Wow.....so I was going to try and keep up with the pictuer for everyday of the month but that got thrown out the window. ...and did it ever, wow.

So school started and we were getting the schedule down, then football started and thats when more seriouse stuff started. My oldest son has allergies and bad. They had been ok so we figured we would try football. Well after the first practice we noticed welps on his legs, thats usually what happens when he comes in contact with grass that hes allergic to.so we started treating it, but every practice he went to his legs and arms got worse and worse, to the point that his welps were busting open and pussing, took him back to the doctor and he got put on more meds, insane at how much it takes to try and regulate this stuff. Well it didnt work and he started having athsma attacks on the feild. We gave him his meds and he seemed ok...the next day the school called and I had to go get him because he wasnt responding to his meds. Took him home and he started coughing to the point of throwing up and at school it was desturbing the class. He went back the next day cause he was doing better, or so we thought.  Got a call not even an hour after school started to come check on him, I got there and the nurse told mr he was retracting and that scared me. If you dont know that pretty much means hes really having problems breathing. So my mom came and picked my other kids up from me and I headed straight to children's hospital. We got there and they got him right into the er and started working on him. They gave him so many treatments that his body was shaking. We were there forever, this was the second time we had to got to children's,  but last time they admitted him and kept him in for a while. This time they let us come home, even though he was still wheezing some. The next day,back to school and a call again....so back to the hospital.  We ended up having to keep him out of school for a week to try and get him regulated on new meds so he could breath.

Its been difficult and has madr me sad to see him that way. But I am proud to report that he's doing so much better now! On top of that our 2 year old ended up with chicken pox. She scratchrd and scratched and were worried that our 7month old was going to get them, but she didnt and our 2 year old is getting better.

Since he's been home he was scrappin with me some, more so just laying on my bed and playing his ds, I guess he thinks he's getting to old and mature for scrappin with mom. But I have mannaged to get some done and will post more tomorrow :-)
