Upcoming stuff…

Posted by DeAnna

So, I haven’t fallen off the face of the earth. I have been trying to get into a routine with Kyle now that I’m not at work, and he’s not in daycare anymore. He’s suddenly decided to drop his afternoon nap (his only nap), so I don’t have any downtime during the day anymore! At least we don’t have to fight him to go to bed anymore – last night he fell asleep sitting next to me on the couch. ;-P

I’m also starting to freak out that I have only 2 months left in my pregnancy before I’ll have to deal with two kids!! I’m not sure I’m ready. I love my son dearly, but sometimes he can be a handful. Last week he decided to try to ride one of his toys down the stairs. Not a good idea. Fortunately our stairs have a landing in the middle, so he only fell down about 5 steps, but he was a bit shaken up. No injuries, either, which is amazing! We’ve been trying to use our basement more, and have created a playroom down there. We decided to remove the gate so Kyle could come and go as he pleased, especially since he’s so good on the stairs. I think it was a novelty that he could go up and down them anytime he liked, but fortunately his interest in the stairs has worn off. What can I say – he’s definitely a boy. And there’s another one coming – I definitely think I’m not ready!!

I have been working on a digital kit the last few days though. Here’s a sneak peek of the color pallate:

I love the website Kuler. It’s probably my favourite colour scheme site. I also like ColourLovers - great website because you can try out your colour scheme on different patterns, or create your own patterns. I saw this color scheme on Kuler posted by Swanlike, and I immediately saw circles! The kit should be ready in the next few days. I’ve already got a chipboard scalloped circle, a grungy overlay, and two papers completed. Yay!

I’ve also been working on digitally editing a photo for my brother Brandon’s wedding album that I’ve been creating. The album’s coming along, only a couple of layouts left to do. I would love to show you the layouts, but should Brandon take a look at my site, it would give the surprise away!

I’ll show you the finished photo shortly, but this is the image I’m working on:

I’m hoping to have Brandon & Eden’s album finished before Photo Express’ big crop on April 18. It’s going to be a glamorous black and white adventure, with me and a friend both about a month away from our due dates! Can you be elegant and glamourous AND be 9 months pregnant?? I guess we’ll see. Hee hee.

Anyway, keep an eye out, there’s lots coming up!
