I’m awarding this to: Tracy, Gwacie and Jaja.

I remember blogging that I want the Occasions kit from SP. I bought it when they had their sale. And as you all know, I have been on scrapping hiatus for a long time now. So lately, I am scrapping mostly old pictures.

I’d like to share the front page of my daughter’s first birthday album. (I am still contemplating on how many LOs I should do if I plan to have it printed. Ten? Twenty?)

Credits:
Occasions Kit (Shabby Princess)
Fontologie} Giggle (I got this font for free during the SP Sale)
M Alpha from Twirl Kit (Shabby Princess)
Green stitching from Bounce Kit (Shabby Princess)
Party Hat from Party Graphics (I got this for free too during the SP Sale)
Green ric-rac (used as flower stems) from Smell My Feet (Shabby Princess)

Since the second birthday is fast approaching, I better start scrapping the rest of the first birthday party album soon.

I was trying to keep myself from checking the stores. The initial plan was NOT to shop. But as always, I wasn’t able to help myself and bought 3 kits that are on my wishlist. But at least, I got this kit for free:

Ok. Enough shopping, time to scrap! I mean, really now.

I grew up watching Sesame Street and Batibot so naturally, I’d like Mikee to watch DVDs of these shows. (Side story: I have a cousin who, at the age of 2, can read. I tested him and he was able to read ”Caution: Men at work” while we are at the mall. I asked my aunt how did that happen. According to her, my cousin watches Sesame Street everyday since he was 6 months old.) Since no Batibot DVDs can be found, I bought several Sesame Street DVDs on sale.

Unfortunately, Mikee got scared at the sight of Snuffalufagus. Geez. I always thought Snuffy is so adorable.

Oh well, I guess, Barney still rules the house.
