First off, I’ve added a new section in my sidebar - the Creative Teams I was fortunately accepted on. Yep, I’m now on Andrea Victoria’s Team! Yay! She’s Pinay too, but has moved to Seattle since she was 3.

I’m actually on a 4-day weekend since I decided to rest and take care of the house. Matthew is having his asthma attacks again — and we didnt even know it was already an attack, since he was having the colds since December and we havent had the chance to visit the doctor. Anyhow, my Mom finally got Matthew to his pediatrician and now he’s on round the clock medication on top of the lab tests we need to do. I actually am feeling guilty about it — Im supposed to know ALL the signs, arent I? (Im a nurse!) I thought it was just allergic rhinitis since I also have one (and our room is very conducive to allergy nowadays - LOL)

I actually haven’t shared any Matthew Bratty stories lately. He’s actually very independent and very “grown up”. Lately, he drives me crazy with all his never-ending Qs. He still has his quotable quotes and quips though - I should blog about it one of these days
But, I’m very very pleased with the layouts I did for Matthew’s First Five Years’ Album. We had his portrait shots on my birthday, and my heart melts to compare how fast he’s growing up! I know I’ll have a new baby soon, but, to tell you honestly, it IS true, firstborns are always somewhat special since they were first
Lookie, lookie!

These 2 LOs are all from ONE kit alone! Can you believe it? All elements and papers from Andrea Burns’ Lucky Boy Kit. (If you want to see the journalling and such, click on the picture.)

And I scrapped about my youngest sister, Agnes, too. I was supposed to do a LO about me for this kit, but since she loves purple, and it suits her, I decided to do one for her. This was a picture during our wedding and she was wearing a pink dress, but since she hates pink, I converted the picture using one of the actions in ATN Central.

The kit used is from Sarah Jones’ Marketplace, awesome awesome kit. I can even make a Matthew LO using the kit since it has a lot of blues on it too! I just used more purple for Agnes.

She is actually joining a fundraiser beauty contest which I won 10 years ago (EEEEK!!! I’m OLD). The coronation night would be around June, and since it’s been 10 years, we would have a big pageant night….that’s around a month after I give birth…so goodluck to me
And, final layout to share I joined a blog contest by Gina Miller using her BYOBB kit. I was a bit rushed since I just decided last minute to submit one (Heck, I bought the kit, might as well use it immediately right?), but it was nice I was one of those runners-up I received a paper pack with matching element from her new CD Collection! (Look here)

And I’m off! I need to clean out my closet, replace bed sheets and curtains and ready Matthew the Brat for school
