Amy's template

While catching up on blog reading yesterday, I saw Amy's post asking who wanted to join in in scrapbooking the present, this week, no matter how trivial. Although mine isn't a story about something that happened, it is about Alice now and what she's doing.

First page I've scrapped in a while - thank you Amy for getting me scrapping again :)

PS Looking at this on the blog everything looks crooked but it's not IRL :(

I'm back :)

It feels like ages since I last posted on my blog.  I'd been having problems with my computer freezing or shutting down on me so Jon decided we needed to do a complete rebuild. We hit a couple of hiccups along the way but finally, I'm back online again :-).

I've missed not being able to post photos of my gorgeous granddaughter ;-) so, I'll start with one of Alice taken yesterday afternoon as we sat in the garden. Can you believe that tomorrow she'll be 6 months old!!  She's now sitting on her own, has one tooth through and possibly a couple more ready to make an appearance. She's loving eating solids and wants to try whatever we're eating (when possible). Claire is going to move her up to the next stage of baby food where there are more lumps (and flavour!). She loves breadsticks and if Claire has a muffin she lunges for it (I might have had something to do with starting her off on muffins!). She's also tried lettuce, tomato and little bits of chicken. She's such a cutie pie but is growing up so quickly!!

I can't remember if I mentioned before that I was jumping in with Project Life. My kit arrived at the end of April and I started working on it from the beginning of May. It was a bit frustrating being unable to print out my photos while my computer was down but today I finally got them printed and into the album. Below are the first two completed weeks :-)  There's nothing terribly exciting but then I guess that IS every day life!
 Week 1


Week 2


Now I've got to get into the habit of blogging again. Wish me luck! ;-)

Out of Action

I've been having issues with my computer for a little while now. Tomorrow Jon is going to wipe everything off my computer and rebuild it. This means I'm going to be off line until my computer is sorted and up and running again.
Have a wonderful weekend.
