The ABC's of Mason & Millie

I've been working my tail-end off on a book for Mason & Millie for Easter! :) I started it on March 22nd and finished it up last night (the 27th)! So...that was a lot of scrapping in a short amount of time! I sent it to the printer last night to be put in a hardcover/bound book! I used some amazing templates by Janet Phillips on these (you can pick them up at www.scrapbookgraphics.com ! Her templates rock!!)

So, without futher ado...the ABC's of Mason & Millie!

Thanks for enduring all of these pages with me! :)

What was I thinking???

First off...I didn't realize it had been a MONTH since I last updated!! So sorry!!!!

Second...what was I thinking?!?!? Look at what I did today...

Mason Before:



Mason after I took him to get his haircut:


I miss his curls!!! I know he'll be much happier with short hair for the spring and summer...but you better believe it's going long again in the fall!! I can't decide if his haircut makes him look older or younger, but he sure looks different!

Let's see...what's been happening over the last month...(don't worry, you'll just get the highlights)

I had my first mammogram...not as terrible as I thought it was going to be. I admit I had a small panic attack on the way there...but it was not painful at all. I think a lot of my nerves were just out of fears of finding something since my mom was so young when she had breast cancer. But...everything checked out just fine! :) March 5th was 13 years since mom passed away. It is so weird to think that I've almost lived as long without her as I did with her. I sure miss her!

Millie is getting so big (seriously...24 pounds!) She is officially off of the charts for her weight and in the 50th percentile for her height. She says "da-da" and is learning to wave. She has such a deep, husky voice that just cracks me up! She is really starting to play a lot and scoots everywhere.

Mason is loving the warmer weather. He screams like crazy when he has to come inside, though! :) He loves playing with all of his outdoor toys and loves to run! He can count to thirteen & loves to entertain! He definitely makes me laugh a lot!
