Benjamin

Benjamin, Jake and Adam's nephew, was born two days after Jake. I did a big letter "B" for Ben's bedroom. It was my first and I was very pleased with the result. I was very pleased with the giraffe paper as he has an animal theme in his bedroom with yellow and orange.
He is so cute. Last week end, he played with Jake and even at 9 months they fit for toys, how amusing they were!!! I am sure they will have great time together as they grow up!

So Happy...

Another holiday shot where Martin and Jake look so happy on the beach. Another good page to scrapbook, I am going to be so busy!

Souvenirs de Vacances...

Two weeks ago, we went to France on holidays. We stayed on a island of the west coast near La Rochelle called "Ile de Re". I took these pictures of my 9 months old baby Jake and I absolutely love them. I can't wait to scrapbook them!!!
I love the old fashion swimsuit that a friend gave me. It is amazing how Jake can sit with such a straight back!

My friend Zu told me about Elsie's book when I came back from holidays last week. I wanted a copy so much but it seemed to be sold out! But I managed to buy a copy and today I got it in the post. I am so pleased. Last week end, I started the challenges and posted my layouts on 2 Peas.
Now I will have to get my copy signed by Elsie at the Scrapbook Camp in Bristol.
