mr. aiden

okay i know it is waaaay past christmas, lol. but i couldnt help but post these pics of my nephew aidan. i'm already so behind on posting pics as it is. i really need to get caught up!

when things are fast they are really fast and when they are slow they are really slow!
the holidays were CRAZY. sooooooooo busy! and now that that has come and gone...it is really slow!
we have had a lot of snow and ice here and the kids have been out of school for a week because of it! this has
given me some time to do a little scrapping - and other things to that i like to do, lol. oh, and over the holidays, takia lost not only one tooth but two! she wouldnt let me even touch her to try to pull the first one, but instead let her 11 year old cousin and 10 year old sister hold her down and yank it out! it really was only hanging by a thread and i was worried she would swallow it, otherwise i wouldnt have even worried about it! the second one, she pulled all by herself!! i love when they get to that stage cause i do not like pulling teeth! i can barely remember to "remind" the tooth fairy to stop by! it was so funny, after a few nights of the tooth fairy being too busy , picking up other teeth, to stop by, she ended up stopping by twice in one day. apparently she has fairy workers and they dont communicate with one another very well!!!

this is a little minibook i created for miss ja'kya. i have to say that i am very happy with how it turned out. the photographer in me loves to take pics of my kids but then i'm faced with what to do with all these stinkin pics. if you know me, then you know that i (typically) scrap at a snails pace. these are from my very first shoot of kya when she was only 8 days old. i really liked the pics but had only used a couple of them so far for the birth announcment and thank you cards. i really wanted to find something to do with the rest of them. one night while talking to dawn (miss hunibuni) she showed me t his minibook templates (available at sbb) she was working on. nice . clean. simple. right up my alley and PERFECT for this little project of mine add in these song lyrics and its a done deal. now when i hear this song i always hear lauryn hill singing it but i'm told theres another version sung by a man, i will have to check that out!

who doesnt remember this?? miss mary mack mack mack all dressed in black black black with silver button buttons buttons......those seriously were the days!!

i really am trying to keep somewhat caught up on scrapping ms kya or at least of taking pics of her.
