I do exist!

I guess I just got busy, or in a funk. But I'm here and I'm alive. I told myself I was going to blog today and get back into the swing of things. Well, I also told myself that after I got Neil on the bus I'd go back to sleep, cause I'm exhausted but....at least one of those things is coming true haha. I say that every morning, to myself. Like a little deal I make with myself to get myself out of bed haha. Never once has it actually happened, but, whatever works, right?

I've been scrapbooking a lot. I'm not one that ever thought I'd be into scrapbooking, it never really made sense to me but - then I had Neil. The premade babybooks I found didn't have options to add the info I wanted to add, very structured and regemented "place photo here" kind of thing. I just couldn't get into it. So, I did my own scrapbook for him. I'm about as far as his second birthday...not too bad. I have plans for everything else up to current. I'm probably digging my own hole here if we ever have a second child, because I'll have to do all this insane detail keeping for them too. I have everything in his scrapbook - even his umbillical cord, the candle from his first bday cake, clippings from his first haircut....you name it. I took photo's of the pages, you can see them here.... on my facebook

We've got some exciting things in the works, a tentative Handmade Faire in June or July - working on sorting out some details there, picking a theme, hammering out the details. As soon as I know for sure, so will all of you :) Here's a hint for you - coconut bra's. Haha, jk...maybe.
