HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEET LITTLE BOY

Just a wee little baby boy...
That's 'little' A having his first cuddle with Miss T, i think this was taken in the Maternity Ward waiting room. When I say 'little' i don't really mean it , he was nearly 10lbs when he was born!! He was to big to fit in the normal humidy-crib, they put him in a brand new $50k crib. He had some breathing probs due to his size but all was ok after a 5-6 day stay in there.
& here he is now...
11 today!
Have a fantastic day xx
I took this photo of him on Valentines Day this year, after much protest & whining, but I do love that cheeky grin :0)

This is him opening his long awaited new scooter this morning.
Must get making his cake...he wants a swimming pool cake???

Unashamed gloating...please forgive me...

I just have to share a little bit of my very own sunshine with you...

All those ribbons are for my scrappin!!
I couldn't believe it either :0)
I entered some LO's in a local show & won some prizes...I received $70 voucher for use in a LSS, a carry bag & some papers. All of them were LO's I've done within the last 6mths & ones that I really love. So I'm so very happy with my little booty of ribbons & certificates :0)
Yes Mum...again your face won me a prize...aren't you proud!!
Now back to reality...
here's a little album I scrapped for Darling A.
the front page...

inside front & page 1...

page 2 & 3...

page 4 & 5...
Just a real quick Kaiser chipboard album, some Basic Grey paper, acetate, stamps & alphas. I used pics of A riding his Ripstik while we were on holidays at TinCan Bay & googled skating terms to add some journalling to it. I love how it turned out & he thinks its pretty cool :0)
