Project Life + Giveaway

This week was crazy.  We had to vacate our apartment for the week and stayed wherever we could find shelter.  It is so hard, especially because Nandini is really into her routine.  Basically sleep, Mommy time, yogurt, sleep, play, eat, more sleep, repeat.  You get the idea.  We did have fun though.  And I was so blown away by the kindness of our friends, like when I needed someplace for the kids to nap during the day.  Or when Justin drove to Target and bought them Fisher Price horses in case they needed toys to play with.  And, our extra long sleep over at Nisha's house.  We packed in a trip to PJ storytime at the library, a trip to the zoo, a visit to Chuck-e-Cheese and the actual birthday sleepover.  My page felt really busy, but I guess that reflects life? 
I liked how this Martha Stewart tag looked glued on the outside of the pocket.  Used my trusty, old Smash date stamp.  I think I use happy place the most.  Love Nandini's new kimono from Nisha.
A little bit of ephemera.  Wrapping paper and a #3 thicker.
One of my own journaling cards with the Clementine days of the week.  I just got lucky with how well they coordinate.

Pin It
In case you were wondering, that little girl is serious when it comes to cupcakes.  She kept mental note of every one being eaten and protested loudly until she had her fair share. 
I made the polaroids in picasa and then created a 'contact sheet' collage and cropped it to 4x6 so I could eliminate the unwanted 'informative header'.  Very quick actually.  Printed out at Ritz.
Saved one of the photo booth cards from Chuck-e-Cheese and added an Ormolu badge and a Crate Love Sticker.  Which is already giving me the idea to make the next two weeks over the top Valentine's Day themed.  I think it will be nice to have the seasons reflected like that as you flip through this album.
