.. and the past few days were pure torture for me! I think we experienced the hottest days of summer the past few days! I literally cannot do anything but stay locked up in our room, because it was so hot! The A/C was either overworked or simply cannot compete with the heat because our room still felt like sauna — better there than going outside and experiencing hell! Seriously, wasn’t it just tooo hot? Made me miss the A/C in my workplace, LOL. Or maybe things were just aggravated because here I am, still pregnant, still with HUGE tummy.

Update from the OB: She would not induce me not unless I go over 40 weeks which will be on May 8th. *pout* I’m effaced already (meaning the baby is in position — she can actually feel it when does an IE already — the reason why my toot-toot has been aching and swollen the past frigging week! ARGH!). BUT, alas my cervix is still closed. Seems like a tight-lipped virgin, LOL, as she says. (Baka nanganganay daw kasi ako, hello, it has been 5 years since I last gave birth!) So, no baby Martha yet, yep. Still waiting. Honestly, I think she’s going to come when I least expect her — so people, stop asking questions like, “Hasnt she come yet?!” This baby is either SHY or planning on making a very GRAND entrance, LOL. All this waiting is killing me actually. Im starting to have fears on my delivery, that something bad might happen to ME or HER, or she will come out not healthy…those sort of things.

Other than that, there’s not much to post. I have been scrapping like a crazy woman the past week, yanking out some pages Im proud of, actually. My CT Guest spot for Gina Miller has ended, and though I will surely miss the team, I had a great time with them :). Thanks for the little big gift too Gina!!

Here was my last “official” layout for her team:

I have been cranking out a lot of Matthew layouts lately, and Im now looking for a great album to print my layouts to (and an affordable printer). Better start compiling them or else he will be run over with the layouts that will sure come when the new baby arrives.

Have been making clean layouts for Matthew using Ange Dawn’s papers, love them!

Remember the Morning Glory Kit from Andrea Burns’ Hourglass Collection I mentioned from the previous post? Well, I was able to play with them last week and these were the outcome:

This was taken from a “Simply You” prompt over at ScrapArtist. I thought I’d jump in and join all the fun This was inspired by Gina’s perspective on “How Did You Meet?” where she tells the story like telling it to her kids NICE! The journalling is awfully long and sorta personal (But if you have read my journal entries ever since, you kinda know the jist :P), so Ill just keep it at that. Speaking of ScrapArtist, I won a little contest for the Color Challenge by Michelle Coleman The alphas and frames and brush strokes that you will see on every other layout I make is courtesy of the GC I received Too bad they only accept Paypal (Good thing as well or else I’ll be broke, I LOVE THEIR STUFF!)

And I finally scrapped Matthew’s milestones! His Birth Story and Graduation!

This was actually a three-page layout, so you can view the rest here. Can I also mention the kit I used is FREE? Yep, wowie friends, get it here for FREE!

And finally, my blog has a new look! Didn’t you notice? Everything is from Jen Wilson who finally has a blog! Yay! I strongly recommend you add her to your links as she is ONE AMAZING DESIGNER!! Im on a self imposed DO NOT spend spree, not until I get to my 100th layout. I have a LOT of kits from the teams I work for and quite a few CDs I spent when I first discovered digiscrapping. Im happy to report that I have scratched at least 20% of them already And! I have closed one credit card as well! YAY! I plan to scrap about it real soon. The second one is ALMOST empty so that would leave me with only ONE more, let’s see….we might spend something for the kids, with Matthew’s school and Martha’s coming, you know..at least, one thing to cross off my debt-list Ooops, Im digressing, everything from the blog’s new look is from Jen’s FREEBIE on her blog, so grab it NOW
More to post, Im off to do my usual two-hour-make-my ankles-swell-walk again
