I survived

I'm going back to work soon after being off for 13 months (maternity). My husband and I agreed to send my son to daycare before I go back to work for a couple days a week for a few hours. This way he can get use to the change and I can get most of the separation crying over with. Well today was the first day and was it ever hard, I spent the first thirty minutes not knowing what to do. Then I started to cry, once that passed I did house work. So, I survived but I'm not looking forward to the next day.

I did manage to find time to do these two cards, the one reminded me of my little guy.


I entered this card into the Cute Card Thursday Challenge and Paper Sundaes Challenge.


I entered this card into the Friday Sketchers Challenge.

We also celebrated my little guys first birthday last week. Its so hard to believe he is a year old. I included a few pictures of the big event.

What a Great Week!!

So I get home from a fun but very long Easter weekend. I decided after I got the baby to sleep that I needed to check all my blogs that I missed so much.

BOY OH BOY - did I ever get a surprise!!! Not only did I win some blog candy but I actually won something for the second time in my entire life (the other time I was four and it was a jar of jelly beans)!!! My husband thought something was wrong, I was screaming so loud, he came running. There on Scrappin’ Great Deals presents Scrappin’ Divas! was a picture of me, I had won the blog candy - I am so excited you have no idea! The best part, its one of my favorite stores - love them! I think I'm going to be on a very big high for the rest of the week because of this :)

I hope everyone had a great Easter Weekend - We did. It was our little guys first Easter and boy is he ever a cutie. We went on a Easter Hunt at Storybook Gardens and he knew right away how to pick up the egg and put it in the basket. He also knew that if it didn't make a rattling noise then it was no good - so he would throw it away. Not bad for a little guy who is 11 1/2 months old. He loved the animals and he tried out a slide for the first time and loved it.





We then had some friends over with their little girl who is three months older then Brewer. They had fun playing outside in the nice weather. You might have noticed that they have matching outfits on - yes we called each other and planned this.



We ended up also visiting Grandpa at the farm, another Easter Hunt in Sarina, Easter with my sister and brother in-law, Church in Kerwood for our nephew's confirmation and another Easter Hunt in Kerwood along with a birthday party. We had a very busy weekend but it was fun. When we got home we just played outside with Brewer. He got a golf set from the Easter Bunny and some bubbles.






I made a few cards, both are for people who are expecting. They don't know each other so I made them similar. Of course I use copic markers, still need some practice but I'm coming along.



I entered these cards into the Crazy 4 Callenges, The Pink Elephant, Paper Sundaes and The Creative Cottage Challenge.

The baby is up from his nap, so I have to go.
