I’m doing well scrapping wise this month and I’m so glad to be doing Project Life too. I don’t scrap a page every other day like I use to when my eldest wasn’t three and stays home with me but I still love this hobby so much. Of course I have amazing goodies from Sweet Shoppe Designs so that keeps me inspired too.

I love that my daughter is getting more interested in music, wait let me rephrase that…my husband is glad that our daughter is getting more interested in music lately. If you ask me I’d rather she concentrate on her ballet and chinese classes but dear ol’ hubby said that if his princess wants to learn guitar or piano we have to support her all the way. I’m not against it really afterall my husband play bass guitar and we have several guitars here at home including a lap steel guitar I’m just concerned if it will be a little too much for my daughter to handle. Well we won’t know until we try right so I’m browsing different sites for classes and see how it goes.

When you have a daughter who loves to get into those kiddie rides at the mall or buy those small toys in small round containers it is better if you have a lot of one dollar coins in your purse ready….at all times. It will save you a lot of time if you have a coin purse dedicated for this that way you don’t have to rummage through all the contents of your purse to get that coveted coin. We don’t buy the girls toys whenever we go out but I do give in for a ride or two, it doesn’t cost much but it makes my little girl very happy (how can I say no really).

As a mom to a preschooler and a baby I’m always on the go. When my youngest was a newborn she didn’t like being in the city select stroller unlike her sister who can sleep and be comfortable in it when she was born. It was a challenge since I have to drop off and pick up my eldest as school. We’ve tried several strollers but it always ended up with her crying so much minutes after we put her in it. So for a few months I’ve been using carriers and wraps to take her with me wherever I go. It was great and she was happy in it but as the months pass by and she got heavier it became too much for my back. I knew I have to try the stroller one more time. I hope she will like being in it this time.

I plan to have a more active blog this year (no more slacking please) so I can post all my latest pages and scrappy finds in one place. It will be fun to share my finds and at the same time have a place for me to browse through my own layouts. I’ve neglected this blog for so long.

What are you plans for 2012?

I’m hoping I could watch Breaking Dawn with the rest of the Twilight fans when it opens in theatres all around the island. The chance of me watching it on it’s first day is highly unlikely so I don’t need to worry about stepping on stanchions as I make my way to the cinema. As long as I get to watch it on the big screen I’ll be a happy camper. I’ll probably ask some girlfriends if they want to watch together as hubby would need to stay home with the girls so I can go out. He won’t be a good company to bring anyway since he hasn’t read the books and it’s not his kind of movie. I hope the movie turns out to be good it would be worth leaving my babies at home.

We watch a lot of holiday movies during Christmas season and I’m already browsing online for movie suggestions as early as now. I have to checkout the dvds early so that I can be sure I get the movies I wanted. Of course mostly it will be family friendly and our daughter can enjoy. It would be nice if we have a canon projector for better viewing but I’m sure we’ll have to make do with the TV, it will be fun. I need to stock up on popcorn as well, we love popcorn on movie nights.

It’s that time of the year again, I need to design our Christmas cards and have it printed and shipped with enough time to send to our loved ones back home. I am actually contemplating on the idea of printing everything myself. I don’t have an Epson TM-T88V but I have a very good printer which I use for my hybrid projects so that should be good enough. I have photo paper as well so I’m good to go. Wait a minute, I need photos of the girls and to actually finish designing the cards first before I could do any printing. I should go do that first.

When I was planning for my baby girl’s christening I thought about what to give her godparents, I wanted something useful yet simple that they can use and I thought personalized rosaries were a great idea. I would have went with this idea if only I had more time to order and have it shipped to our home. It would have been something meaningful and beautiful they would remember the special day of our little girl by. It was okay though, we had a great service at church albeit short and with other families and our baby didn’t cry so much (except when she was hungry and wanted milk). We celebrated the occasion with our family and closest friends and everyone had a great time.
