A Few things I love...



So, life has been a little hectic at our house, now that Adam is crawling and cruising all over the place. He just recently started taking steps on his own, and very proudly walks around the room. He is up to about twenty steps now, and absolutely loves to chase the dogs, and run into the couch. This explains the lack of new posts on the blog...but really who has much time in life anyhow!

A Few Things I love...besides Rick and Adam...
1) On STAR! - On Star saved me from being stuck at Home Depot with Adam! I locked my keys in the truck right by Adam's seat, and was stuck holding him there on one of the windiest days of the year. Thankfully, I had my cell phone and called Rick, who then called On Star because I didn't have the number, and they remotely opened the truck in a matter of three minutes. HOW cool is that?? Cheryl probably wished we had this eight years ago when we were in downtown Calgary!!!



2)My Chariot! This stroller/bike trailer is amazing...not only is it equipped with shocks, but also a screen to keep the bugs out. Adam is enjoying it and we actually took our first bike ride today to Henderson and had a wonderful time. Gets us out of the house to get some exercise! Well worth the money spent.

3) Safety First Cabinet Locks...these things are amazing at keeping Adam out of the cupboards. They are magnetic so he can't even open them a bit and get his fingers caught. I wish i invented them!

I think that is it for now...just a few things that have made life as a parent pleasurable- that is everything besides my wonderful, cute little boy!

Ten Months Old!

Okay, so it has been a while since I have posted a scrapbooked page, so here is Adam's 9 and 10 month ones. I just recently switched over to Photoshop CS3 and I absolutely love it. I have found so many tutorials- Jessica Sprague has amazing ones...and am slowly discovering just how GREAT digital scrapbooking is. I almost think these pages are boring because there is just SO much that can be done. Again, these pages are from Anna Aspens "Baby Daze." Only a few more pages to go and Adam's first scrapbook will be finished and he will be ONE! YIKES!
