Love these 2

These pictures were just taken on Sunday at my godson's bday party. They're growing up way too fast. This summer is flying by way too fast. Emma will be starting kindergarten and Abby will be attending pre-school two days a week. I just might have a total of 6 uninterrupted hours a week - what shall I do?!!! I could scrapbook but most likely I'll be cleaning :( We'll see - I have another entire month to think about it. Need to start school shopping - clothes, shoes. Emma already picked out her new lunch tote - Bratz of course. We found it yesterday at Big Lots - $6 - I can handle that! Now we'll look for a backpack and I'm not sure what else she needs. No news on when her screening will be - waiting for that letter to arrive and then hopefully once that's done, we'll find out who her teacher will be. Abby will have the same teachers that Emma had in pre-school. She's super excited. Abby isn't as shy as Emma so hopefully pre-school will go a little smoother for her. I'm worried about Emma being in school all day, 5 days a week. That's a huge difference from 2 days a week just 3 hours each day. And then having the summer off - ouch! I think I need to start practicing getting them ready now. That should be the fun part. Get up, eat, get dressed, get out the door!!! Yea - should be interesting. So, I went scrappin' on Saturday and I managed to get 18 pages done. Even did a few in Emma's baby album that I haven't touched in years. That made me happy - especially since Creative Memories is discontinuing that page size - I better get a move on in that album!!! Here's a little glimpse of what I got done.

This is not all of them - just the ones that still need journaling. I hate that part. The others that I actually completed are already in an album :)
As for Emma's baby album - can you believe she was ever this small?!!!



To think that was 5 years ago. Wow! She's only 2 months old in those pics. I kept those pages pretty simple - not a lot of doo-dads for the CM albums. Now, I just need to keep sorting her pictures from that long ago - pictures w/ no dates on them. That's the stressful part. Need to order and stock up on some pages too before they don't sell them anymore. Well, today is going to be pretty lazy - laundry and stuff around the house. Oh what fun. Rob's birthday is this weekend. Not sure what to get him. We might just be going to the Polish Festival for some family fun. With the gas prices and the oil bills - well it's not leaving much money for fun stuff unfortunately. Times are tough right now - we just have to make the best of it.
