Hello Again!

Wow! It's been a long time since I have posted on here! If you notice, the last time I posted was about 9 months ago... Well, you guessed it... we were pregnant... and the not so fun part of being pregnant was that I didn't really scrap or craft much during my pregnancy. I just didn't feel it, but as the big day got closer I slowly started crafting again.

On March 3rd, we welcomed our son into the world. John "Easton" weighed 8lbs 5 oz and is 21 and a half inches long. And he arrived at 2:38am, what an entrance! And what an experience, it was the hardest thing I have ever done, but something I look forward to doing again one day, although not anytime soon. ;)

I will update you with a few photos and a few projects I did for his room.

Here is one the maternity pictures that we had taken. I was about 7 months pregnant. Feeling pretty good this point. Those last few days were brutal, I went all the way to my due date plus 1 day!


Here is the sonogram picture from when we found out we were have a boy! He was sucking his thumb in this photo and several times already his thumb has made its way to his mouth!
 I made a banner that matches his bedding perfectly!!!!
 Here is a picture from the hospital!
 Here is a picture from just the other day! He is growing so quickly! And he is such a sweet boy! He stole my heart and we couldn't ask for a sweeter baby!
 For his baby book,  I am doing Project Life! This is my first time to do PL and I am love how it is coming along!

Hopefully, I will be getting back into my craft room soon and making some cute layouts featuring our new family member!

-Many blessings,
Catherine
