Project Life- Update

***Our Internet has been acting up for days. So happy to finally be able to post again!!!

I had a request to see what I've been up to with my Project Life album. Please excuse the poor photos. I planned to take pictures in natural light....and then we had rain. Lots of it! I love rain, don't get me wrong, but it's not conducive to photos.

July 16-22:

Had sushi with my girlfriend Chris, Samuel stood up in his crib, Dr. Seuss card from sister Amy, went to 2 birthday parties: one at a Bounce House and one at the zoo

I put the card in a 6x12 page protector and trimmed it down. The clip keeps it in the pocket.

July 23-29:

Lots of standing, Jacob came home, Samuel sleeping in funny places

July 30- August 5:

Jacob left, Samuel in the tub, a picture from upstairs looking out to the yard, Samuel's g-friend Katie

I didn't have room for a journal card, so I tucked it behind the last photo with a tab sticking out.

August 6-12:

I didn't have a lot of pictures, so I filled up spots with "filler"- packaging from foods we've eaten, a postcard that came in the mail, a piece of scrapbook paper.

I also finished a scrapbook layout from one of my monthly classes that I missed...

Team Thomas

These pictures were taken when Samuel was 4 (!!) months old. My friend Morgan Miller did an amazing job at capturing our family of 3. I wasn't sure what to use for this layout, but I think changing the pictures to black and white helped pull it all together.

Right side- felt hearts, wooden buttons on top of the pictures

And with the leftover scraps, I decorated journal cards for Project Life this week.

Thanks for looking! Sorry for the delay!!  :)
