I recieved a layout!

Good Morning all!

I was sooo excited when I opened my inbox this morning! I received my first layout submission for the Adore Challenge!

This layout comes from Jinnie, celebrating the adorable Gingerbread's 1st Birthday!

It looks like fun was had by all! Thank you Jinnie for sending this in! I'll have your gift to you in the morning!

There's still time to submit your layout for the challenge, you have until midnight tonight. All links will go out in the morning.

I also have a layout of my own to share...

It Bri's 5th year in pictures:

The template I used is another great one by 3s enough, it's her Template #139. The papers and elements are all from my soon to be released kit Brianna's Butterflies.

I hope you have great day! And Thank you again Jinnie for the wonderful Layout!!

Hugs,

Michele

Today is....

Miss Bri's Birthday!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my princess! She's been waiting for today for the last week, everyday she's asked is it my birthday yet? Since her birthday is on a Monday, we won't be having her party till this weekend, but she seems ok with that. I wanted to share the LO I made from her newborn pictures with you. Bri was born 5 1/2 weeks early, but weighed just over 7lbs, they told me if she's have went to term, she would have been close to 10lbs!! Even for as big as she was, she had the typical problems of any preemie...was put on oxygen within a hour of birth, trouble coordinating her breathing while eating, and various other things. She spent a week in the nursery because she couldn't maintain her blood sugar (it was only 13 when she was born), kept forgetting to breathe, and had a bad case of jaundice. I had her home a week, and while going from my mom's to my grandma's, she stopped breathing completely, so she got her first ambulance ride (I should say rides) to our local ER, then when they were going to send her home with just an apnea monitor, she stopped breathing again and was sent to Children's hospital for a week. She had a virus similar to croup. Thankfully she's grown into a very healthy little girl.

But here is my LO:

The template is JustRenae's template 8 and word art by JustRenae ; Paper from Baby Elizabeth by Meryl Bartho at DSP; Font A Yummy Apology.

Nathan is ready for a nap, so I'm off for now.

Have good day,

hugs,

Michele
