Introducing my new neice.....

So I'm an aunt again...that makes 5 nieces and nephews for me; not including Carlos' side of the family. My little sister just gave birth a couple of weeks ago to a beautiful baby girl named Brianna....doesn't she look just like her Auntie Nancy?! hehe!


The new big brother is just so proud of his new little sister....

He's not the only one...look at mama and daddy

Too sweet!!!

There's my daddy...with his 9th grandchild! What a proud grandfather he is, too!!!

I can't wait to meet this beautiful baby girl!!!

A Day at the Park!

We spent this past Sunday afternoon playing with the kids at the park. The weather was just perfect, not too hot nor not too cold! The twins absolutely *loved* the swing! They were laughing so hard!




We're trying to teach Bianca to swing herself! I think she prefers that we push her...much easier that way!




Oops! Wrong way, Jeremy! That kid is such a little daredevil!!!


And honestly, I do have a 10 year old boy. Why do you barely see him? First, he hates taking his pictures! And second, he *thinks* he's too old for the swings, now! He was off playing football with some of his friends he saw at the park. Ugh! They grow up way too fast!


And I just want to leave you guys with this precious photo I took of my sister and her son while I was back home in Chicago! Is this not the sweetest photo or what?!


Well, I'm off to bed! God Bless!

Woohoo!! I did some scrappin'!!!

Last weekend's crop was so much fun!! Although I didn't get as much as I would have liked to, I did get a few pages done!!! After a very hectic tax season, sick kiddies...this was very much needed! Here are the layouts I did.........

Sometimes this girl can't wait to grow up and then there are other times, like this, where she misses being the baby of the house. hehe! I love that picture.

The design team over at Scrap4Life has tons of challenges going on right now. One of them was to do a baby layout. Well, we all know I have plenty of those...so I've gotten quite a few "baby" layouts done, but still got hundreds more to go! hehe!

These are the twins when they first learned how to hold their own bottles. This made things so much easier but now I miss that snuggle time with them.

The pictures from these next layouts were taken on Valentine's Day. Are these not the most adorable kids you've ever seen?! hehe! Guess I'm a bit bias, huh?!

Thanks for looking!

Scrap4Life's April Kit!!!!

All is can say is WOW!!!! Check it out!!!

And here are a couple of layouts I did using the kit. March has been a crazy month with sick kids, Carlos out of town, flying out to Chicago for the weekend that I couldn't do nearly as much as I would have liked. But once things slow down, I can't wait to dig into this kit some more!

Weekend Crop

So this past weekend, Scrap4Life hosted a weekend crop. I didn't get nearly as much as I would have liked but I did create some pages. Here are a few layouts I did:

This is Jaz last July. She had just learned to hold her head up. The challenge was to use green.

This is my little Miss B holdong a big chocolate KISS we got her for Valentine's Day. This layout was for a sketch challenge.

I just love these types of pictures. Again, my sweet Jaz.

So. I'm home from work today with two sick kids. But unfortunately still working. Gotta love tax season!

Scrap4Life March Kit...Spring Love

EEK! I can't believe it's been several weeks since I posted! Life has really gotten busy for me with the new job. But I know once tax season is over, things will slow down quite a bit.
So, I wanted to show you all the wonderful kit we put together for March at Scrap4Life. It was jammed pack with so many goodies! I had a blast working with it! Check out the March "Spring Love" Kit...........



And here are a few things I created using this kit!





I also used the big chipboard flower from Making Memories as a template to create the following layout of Jazlyn. Yes, that's her just learning how to walk.


And here's a little peak at what I get to play with for next month! I am ecstatic about this kit!
