Ultrasound page

I finally had time to put together the ultrasound page for my son's scrapbook. Ultrasound appointments were my favorite OB visits during pregnancy. Every ultrasound visit was filled with so many feelings...anxious, excited and impatience! The first ultrasound was at 13 weeks. I remember being able to see his tiny legs moving fast on the screen! I was unable to get any sleep the night before the 2nd ultrasound. I was 20 weeks pregnant and that was the appointment where we would find out the baby's gender! I was up all night, tossing and turning. My gut feeling told me I was having a boy. I can't explain how I knew, but I just knew. His ultrasound photos were incredible--his face structure was outlined so clearly. The 3rd ultrasound was at 33 weeks and honestly, I had no clue what the pics were of. He was measuring big and I know it's cramped in the womb already so I was just happy that he was growing normally.

Alex's First Christmas Scrapbook Page

This is Alex's scrapbook page for his first Christmas! He was a bit colicky that night but was able to sit and watch his cousins open their presents. He received a lot of gifts as well. I made this page to add to his scrapbook. I still have to write a few things on it (hence the blank area on the right) so that when he's older, he can read about his first Christmas.

I was able to find the red tinsel that I used to frame the photo, the leaves with red ribbon and bells and the glittery red alphabet stickers at Marshall's for really cheap! The Christmas lights trim and Santa embellishments were purchased on eBay (by Jolee's Boutique) -I like buying scrapbook materials there because usually it's much more cheaper than at craft stores like Micheal's and Hobby Lobby.

Photo with Santa - he was asleep!

I love Christmas embellishments!
