Nathan's October

After the end of Balloon Fiesta, we have had a low key October.  Nathan has enjoyed playing with some of Jesse's old Duplo trains,

driving around Whole Foods in a car shopping cart,

coloring with some of Chloe's old markers,

and cuddling on the couch with Jesse when he is sick.

October Layouts

I completed my layouts of Nathan's newborn photo shoot using Simple Stories' The Story of Us collection.  I used Blue Fern's October sketch and brick chipboard for this first layout.

And these are some of my very favorite pictures ever.  I based this layout on Creative Scrappers' Sketch 299.

Balloon Fiesta Time!

It's Balloon Fiesta time again!  This past week we have seen lots of balloons from our neighborhood park, but we also went to the Balloon Fiesta Park to see the twilight twinkle balloon glow.

Nathan was so excited to see the balloons -- both the real ones and the toy ones.

Nathan's favorite hot air balloon was the one that looked like a lion.

We had to leave before it got really dark, but the sight of the glowing balloons was still pretty in the twilight.  We even saw a Singha balloon!  

A Cherry on Top

This month I am guest designing for A Cherry on Top!  I got to use My Mind's Eye's Yes Please, and I thought this line was perfect for these adorable newborn baby pictures.  I have guest designer challenges up on the board - come play along!
