Well now the shopping expeditions is over... Then there is time for payback!!
Well you hope there is. Maybe some photo shots for the next scrapbook? Maybe just something that Nanna would love....
Well - lets try cooking with playdough and then smile sweetly at mummy!
Hmm 3 year old holding court: No..Mummy wait until I put the cookie on the tray THEN you can take a photo!!
Finally...
Woo hoo.. Mummy captured some great shots... Now to scrapbook..
Are you tired yet sweetie...?? Surely you must be...LOL

Tuesday 6th February
Hmm here I am at the PC again or should I say notebook these days!
I have been preparing for my first "crop" session. I thought to make the most of the child free time when I go to this so called "crop" I should have everything cut out that I have any clue about making and then it is go from there.
I am really looking forward to going to a crop and just being able to lose myself in the whole, do your stuff, chat and not have any interruptions. Sheesh mean mum aren't I?
Let me explain a little about my scrap room. Me and my 3 year old daughter "share" it. I find it hard to instil sharing in her when I struggle to share my stash with her. We are coming to terms with that and I must add, scrapping is almost doubly expensive when you have a little girl that wants the same things you have bought. Of course there are limits to what she can have!! They are the things I can sneak into the house without her spotting them!! Aside from that.. well let me tell you about a shopping trip tonight!
Officeworks - we went to buy some highlighters - I needed a stapler - so did Georgia, surprised?
I then looked at some pencils, for tracing, outlining, surprise, surprise, Georgia needed them! and so it went on. So instead of quickly popping in to get some highlighters and a stapler we walked out with double of everything!
Mums be warned - this scrapbooking is contagious!! And expensive if you have to double up on costs!

Hello There!
Just opened this blog to share with family and friends my new passion
Scrapbooking!!
Wow what a therapeutic hobby it is. I had never imagined that I could have so much fun from photos that I had taken in the past.
I have been scrapbooking a very short time. Since Late November 2006..
I have done a 2 hour beginners class and hounded my best friend Merilyn, who lives in another
State about how to do things etc....
It is such a great hobby and one where I actually find people are kind, sharing and NO bitchiness!!
I hope that you like what you see. If not, well maybe come back in a month or two and I might have improved!! Hahahaha
