same pics...2 different layouts...

these layouts use the same pics...of the kids and my son playing in the snow pile last spring ... The first is the one that is going in dgd's book.  My project life concentrated on snow ....



then I chose this cloud pp for dgd#2's book...it comes complete with sun.  But I felt like it was too much a difference...




So, with the Snap "Carpe Diem' embellies in this month's Gossamer Blue life page kit...I transformed it a bit.  (the page on the left side has  the same pics as dgd #1's book)

Can you say exhausted?  Yup, that is me.  this morning I joined ddil and dgd#2 (aged 2 years) at the library for the preschool 'wiggleworms' story time.  Took dgs#1 (aged 13 months).  Okay, HOW DID I DO IT??/ when it was me with 2 kids in carseats with all their stuff!!  HOLY MOLEY that was a lot of work.  And it was just one kid, one carseat, one backpack (they don't do diaper bags at that house), one purse and one stroller.   And then I went to Walmart with him...so put purchases, kid, Subway lunch and purse into the car...oh my...I used to be young and energetic, really...how do these young women do this...with multiple kids!!  siiiiiiiigh. 

  Oh, and side note, my grandson is one heck of an 'eater'.  He ate a 6" meatball sub (okay, just half the bread) for lunch.  When my kids took him out to eat over the weekend, an older couple stopped them at the register and told them, "We hope you make a lot of money, that boy is going to eat you out of house and home"   But babies do get picky and they slow down....riiiight???

I like the colors you used on these.

You've been busy. Cute pages. I think they tend to slow down too, unfortunately when the speed back up they eat A LOT more and for a longer period of time.

Way to switch it up! I love how pocket pages really "work for you"!

I like them both! I have a hard time using cloud patterns and embellishments, so I'm always interested to see how others use them.
