My brag book!!!!

bwahahahaha! and won't everyone be fighting over this one. (I can only hope-LOL!) I had the best time w/Cosmo Cricket - Jack's World. It was fun, funky and just perfect. I had a blast w/the stickers, and I usually don't do stickers but you just couldn't help it. I also made this book to put both babies in. SNORT. So now Owen w/be getting his own acrylic book. Yes those are eyelets in there. Amazingly easy enough with the crop a dile tool. Also have to admit I "lifted" that idea from my pal Brooke. She also gave the material that is used as ribbon and man it is just perfect for the line. AND this is the front and back which I'm sure you figured out. However, I put everything on the inside so I can pop it off w/o everything coming off from too much handling. Also the Bee Happy, Bee Silly & Bee Mine are takeoffs from the closing of letters when my Gram wrote to me after we moved to Florida. She always closed w/Be Good Be Sweet Be Mine-so I'm glad I can twist it a bit to make it mine. Also became known as the 3B's. LOL! Okay-Off to make Owen's book!!!

Top Designer - Class #2 - Patterned Paper!

Superbly illustrated, demonstrated and taught by Miss Emilie Ahern! I love patterned paper and loved the assignment. Of course you can't go wrong w/a gorgeous grandbaby happening either. That is precious Connor all snuggled up tight after hitting the world. You really really REALLY need to check out Bad Girls! Funny, sweet TALENTED ladies, awesome kits, and fun challenges!!!

I'm so jonsin for the next class!

Finalllllllllllly..............Owen Christopher

live and in person! Well sortof. I'll get to smooch nose when we get up there in October! Can't wait. Anyway this would've probably happened sooner except I belive I encountered technical difficulties. NOT that they could've been operator error. Oh noooooooo!!!

Born 9/9 he's a big boy at 8 lb 12 oz and came out just perfect.

off to scrap . smirk.

Had to let this one digest

a bit (pun intended) snort. I had a total of 2.4 weight loss yesterday at weigh in! Didn't see that one coming. At.All. And how cool is that??? On the heels of a gain from last week. Lost that and then some. which is totally unusual and I'm totally jazzed and fired up. woo ohoo!! love that.

BG Top Designer Class #1 - layering!

LAYERING PERSPECTIVES by Miss Cari Fennell and it was so much fun. I had sort of gotten away from layers and it was fun to get back into. I love the lo - featuring my great great grandmother and uncle Frankie and you know I adore heritage. Creative cafe die cut paper just rocks and K&Co, foofala, MME and then primas. I just love primas. The wood flourishes are by Kaiser - picked those babies up in San Diego. wooo hooo!!!! Took the green line to Old City and hiked. bwahahaha. It is a great store. But I digress.....check out Bad Girls and join the fun!!!

Flew home between storm actions.....

and it's so good to be home - but so hard to leave the g-baby. Tell me he's not the cutest baby-EVER!!! lol!!!! He does look like my handsome son. Since the ConMAN (smirk gotta have a nick name right?) liked being swaddled the only available kissin spot was his adorable nose. So I kissed it. ALOT.

Baby #2's mama is scheduled to go in late tonight to be induced. ACK!!! So hopefully, I'll have more photos to post. (I can feel your excitment - kinda like home movies bwahahaha)! It's just a bummer we can't be there to hold baby Duffy and smooch noses as well. It has just been so darn exciting around here. I'll have LOTS of STUFF for PAGES NOW. bwahahahaha!

Please welcome Connor Logan

and boy is he pretty. He didn't like being unswaddled and he let you know it. Funny, both my kids wanted out of those blankets. Not Connor. We counted fingers and toes. All there. Tried to get him to open his eyes. Stubbornly kept them shut. hmmm...where did he get that from? snort. Tomorrow is another day. bwahahaha. Not only that being obnoxious with the camera. smirk. Speaking of which I gave my little camera to my SON. Need to get that bad boy back. So now we are waiting on Liz, the loose cannon. LOL!!!! Told her to keep her legs shaved just in case. We women worry about things like that. Tom's words of wisdom - PUSH! snort.

Fashionable beach wear.............

my fav BIL sporting the latest in beach wear at the Jersey Shore. An umbrella, hat, chair and the MUST have of the season - a boobie board. The weather remains great and the waves are rockin and rollin. A good time is being had by all. Yesterday was our big Labor Day FEAST and it was yummy. We had enough food to feed an army and it was totally de-lish. WW was hanging tough. snort. Most of the family was here, though we missed Kevin and Liz but being close to her due date she didn't wanna roam too far from home. Babies still in a holding pattern.
