Happy Birthday my Baby!! Now you are turning 3

s
credits on the QP i made with the birthday blog train elements and papers
can anyone tell me whos blogtrain this was? that time, many were up ?!


Yeahay! We are having a Birthday today!
Our little Bam Bam is turning 3!!
Gee, does that mean, the terrible 2 are past?! LMAO I think he is doubling up one more, and making terrible 4 out of it ?!

I tell you what, I was cleaning my house, and baking a littl cake ( Since I knew I was working and beeing busy, I ordered a big cake at the bakery for the guests) all day yesterday. Then I went to work and worked till 1 am ( celebrated my bosses birthday for a few, before I headed home), and then I decorated the kitchen and finished his cake, so it was 2.30 am when I went to bed. And now you tell me, what time Brian got up?! Guess what !????
6.00 !!!!!!!!!!!!! Usually I dont wake up, when he gets up. My husband gets up with him, since he is leaving early for work anyway, and my hubby wakes me up at 6.30 so we get to drink a cup of coffee together, before he leaves... but today ! I somehow woke up when Brian took the steps downstairs! I shaked my hubby and told him to get up, Brian was on its way down, while I already jumped up so I dont miss out on his "surprised face"...
Funny was, when we came right behind him, Brian stood there in the door, lifting his hands and shouted " Taraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" ROFL !!!

You would think kids are surprised, and jump right on their presents. But Brian was kinda strange. He scares me once in a while with his adultly expressions!! He sat there, receiving his gifts, unwrapping it slowly, carefully .... and seeming so thoughfull while doing this.
He did not eat cake, only looking at it. He did not tore apart the wrapping paper, but carefully ripped piece for piece.. He did not scream "yeah" or anything, He just looked, tryed and put it away to receive the next gift!!
It was strange! But he liked all his gifts, and that´s what makes me happy!
Now I am having a very strong cup of coffee, and the kids are playing quietly (strange too!!)
My hubby passed out on the sofa... so its pretty quiet here.
The snow comes down steadily (strange too) Havent had real nice snow in two years.
So I guess I just sit here, enjoy my coffee and get prepared for the party afternoon,.... I dont know what to do for lunch,... I dont know what to do for dinner ...

I have to apologize for being bad about giving freebies, but I was so wound up in Brians preparation for his birthday and work and so on, I just havent had the mind for this.
Upcoming week I will be busy decorating christmas at home and at work, also some other stuff... so I really dont know if freebies will be up soon.
Be patient, I dont forget about it.

And now off I am .....

Happy Birthday lil Bam Bam
(Why Bam Bam? Do you know Bam Bam the lil one from the Flintstones? Exactly my boys caracter)

Demotivated and Depressed

God, I still have all these pictures on my harddrive, my camera card, and 700 developed pictures,.. and I just dont seem to get on it?! I just took a peek on the layouts I already created, and I dont like even 1 !!!! What on earth? I would love to scrap, but I just cant. I feel the pressure of having all this pictures around, and getting nothing done!
When I look at all your guys printed albums I get jealous, you all seem to know what and how you want, and I scrap and scrap, just to delete it later on!! :-(
I should find a way of getting it accomplished to scrap all my stuff?!?!
I have pictures of back to 2006 ?!:-((
Hardly sort them up ... I still have a album to finish for my mom, one to finish for her Boyfriends 50th Birthday, two to finish for my aunt, I started and now dont like some of the pages... and then all these pictures laying around everywhere.... Christmas sneaks up on me slowly but surely, no gifts yet, no cookies yet .. oh boy
Also I cant make up my mind on artscow! I´d love to sign up and have christmas cards printed, but I havent finished enough layouts for a book yet, I will redo all the layouts ... so, I would only loose all the coupons ....
AAAAaaaaarrrgh! Any suggestions?
I should do a layout contest LOL, But nothing I would have to give either:-(

The Bunnys moved in

The bunnys finally moved in on Friday night. But I did not tell the kids until late Saturday noon.
I thought them rabbits should have some time without commotion to get settled in their new home.
I haven´t acomplished to take pictures of their hutch yet, but at least I can show off the bunnys.

They are still very shy, I dont think they are older than 1 year if not even less! "Schlappi" the whitish one is a not as shy as "Brownie" but I guess kids and bunnys need to get used to each other frist.

Well, here´s the first pics for now.

"BROWNIE"



"SCHLAPPI" ( German for Schlappohr because of his hanging ears)

Christmas Card with Joni G

As you all should know by now, I love JONI G.´s stuff. She´s just putting so much heart to her stuff, and the colors are just exactly my colors!!!
So I made a Christmas Card with Jonis Kits "Christmas Star" and "Christmas Star Add on"
If you like them you can just right click save them to your harddrive!
I also created this card with the Starframe cut out so you can insert your own pictures and left the text off the back so you can put your personal text there. Please just let me know, if you want that, and I will upload it to 4shared.

Also go visit JoniG for her kits!! And leave her some love! The more she gets, the more she can put in her kits ;-)

Heres the cards front and the cards back the size is 5x7


Also a few weeks ago I created a Addon Alpha to Jonis stuff, it´s available here

Freebietime again !! TWO CHRISTMAS CARDS

OH my god! I survived my first rough weekend at work!
I tell you what, this Generation of youth here in Germany isn´t very respectful!
When they got drunk enough, they pied and puked on our house walls and the restaurant windows!! ( the restaurant is in the basement)
Oh my god, this was the worst disco night we´ve ever had! But it was worth it too.
I lost my voice, worked my butt off, busted my ankle but thats ok! I just love this job! The more hectic it gets the more I love it!
I am totally wore out and tired, but I had to get on some of my -to do list things- so I decided to start on one of the easier things! I created my Christmas cards!

You can just save them with right click to your hard drive, no point´n of doing a 4shared download for this! Its 4x8 size!
