I'm sorry for the lack of posting lately. Things have been a little busy around here....
I worked in Blake's scrapbook for the past couple of weeks. After doing over 30 pages I called it quits! I'm thinking after Blake turns one I'll finish it up. I'm glad to have all that stuff put away! These pics are for Jill P. Jill, these aren't my best, but I took these before you asked for my sis.
Then, this past weekend we went to Bossier. Don't be mad that I didn't call you because I didn't call any friends! I always struggle with wanting to see family and friends when we go to Shreveport and there just isn't enough time! It was a 2-day trip and I hadn't seen family in 6 months so they won and were blessed with our presence all weekend. We hope to go back in May and maybe I'll be able to hook up with friends then!
We no more than got to Bossier and Blake was running a fever! Ugh! Why is it when we go out of town the boy gets sick? Anyway, he had a bad night the first night so the next day we took him to a clinic and the Dr couldn't find anything wrong with him. He had a rash ALL over his body and the Dr couldn't find anything wrong with him!!! I was so annoyed. I mean, at least just say it's a virus! He was better by Sunday and back to normal.
Anyway, while we were there we took Andrew to a Mardi Gras parade. I was excited because I figured he would love it.
My nieces look thrilled to be at the parade, huh? I think they've been to one too many!! Lauren is making fun of Andrew's backpack. She thinks the "leash" is funny. I wasn't taking any chances of losing him in that huge crowd.
Andrew wasn't sure what to think of the floats. The music and smell of alcohol were pretty overwhelming!
My sister made this pillowcase for Andrew. He LOVES it! I seriously don't know if I will ever be able to wash it.
We headed home early Sunday. It was funny because when we backed out of my sister's driveway Andrew started bawling and saying...bye Louisiana. Matt and I had all to do not to laugh at the poor boy.
Monday Andrew woke up with a fever! He's fine today so hopefully we'll get back into the grove of things soon!!
I really liked a color in my sister's house and it inspired us to use our Home Depot gift cards!! (we've been collecting them for the past two years!) We have done quite a bit of painting lately and I'm seriously pooped! When we've painted in the past it was the boy's rooms. Since I was pregnant I had a good excuse not to help. Unfortunately, I'm not prego so I've been one painting fool. Matt can't get over how helpful I am!! 
Oh and Andrew's been helpful too! He likes to sit at the bottom of the ladder.
So, now you see why my blog has been neglected!! :)

Glad y'all had fun, but I am SUPER glad you FINALLY got your blog to work. It was all the phone calls to me, right?! HA! Thanks for the update!!
Take a picture when your done with your kitchen. That color is going to look good!! Your blog background looks nice!
i like the background. post more pics of your house when you're done. i've heard several play-by-plays on this house painting...
looks good tho! can't wait to see it in person
It looks like you have been busy. Your scrapbook pages look great.
The scrapbook pages are so adorable. Maybe you shoudl just stick normal scrapbooking because I don't think the digital ones look as cute. Love the new colors in the house. I'll have to come visit sometime.
thanks y'all!
jill...i agree. i would definitely miss the 3-D if i did digital scrapping. we'll see. and come on!! i keep telling matt he's keeping the boys one weekend so i can go to dallas. i just have to wait for a month when he doesn't have to use his rest days for family and friends coming in. which probably isn't going to be until june!!!!!
Love that color you guys are painting on the walls. What is it called?
jennifer...it's called bonjour beige by glidden. when we opened it up it was VERY light but it darkened up once we put it on the walls.
yay, you're back! Your scrapbook pages are so cute...I wish i had the patience for that. What a treasure!
Those scrapbook pages are so cute! Do you use the CM albums when you do regular SB-ing? I've seen some pages that have so many 3-D items and there is no way it would fit in one of those albums! I love them though, not partial to the 3-ring binder look. Yeah on painting! I love painting (or watching my husband do it)! :)
jessica, yeah, i use the cm albums. i agree that some 3-D things take up way too much space in the album. i like using the ribbon tho.
So did you get everything painted? We need to see the finished product! =)
jennifer...i thought about posting pics but there is just something weird about letting complete strangers see the inside of my house. you will have to come over for a play date and see it in person!!
