Chloe Alyssa Stansbury

Emilie is a big sister! Chloe Alyssa decided that she just had to join mommy's girl night out by making her appearance at 12:08 pm on Saturday, February 25th. So much for mommy's plans, eh? Waiting for daddy to email me pictures of the little tyke! Not sure if I can wait any longer. Might just have to take a trip myself and meet her. Anyhow, Chloe weighed in at 7 pounds, no ounces, and is 20 inches long. I guess it was getting a bit cramped in mommy's tummy... imagined if she did show up on March 9th! I think she would have hit the 8 or 9 pound mark and got herself really stuck. Mom said she too was born face up...which isn't really good for the baby. Ah well...she made it out and was home on Sunday. Can't wait to meet her! Now if Daddy will just send me those pictures!

I've been tagged!

My secret pal, Julie Gefland from CKU Anaheim tagged me last week and I am just noticing it now!

WHAT SCRAPBOOK LINES/PRODUCTS/ETC. DO YOU DISLIKE?
Dislike a product? Me? Hmmm... no. And from all the stuff I've hoarded, it's pretty obvious that I love practically everything.

WHAT IS THE HARDEST THING YOU HAVE EVER HAD TO SCRAP?
Haven't had to do any of that kind of scrapping yet. Well, I do have a lot of pictures of when I was with my ex.... I started an album for my ex's parents (when we were still together) and I haven't touched it since.

WHAT TECHNIQUE DO YOU USE MORE THAN ANYTHING?
Clean and simple. Oh, and stamping.

EVER BEEN PUBLISHED?
No...but I have made samples for Scrapbook U.

WHAT'S THE SMALLEST SCRAP OF PAPER YOU SAVE?
No idea. I normally don't measure it. If it looks like it can be used for something then I will save it.

EVER HAD ANY SCRAPBOOKING-RELATED INJURIES?
Paper cut and once I kinda nicked my self with my Cutterbee scissors. Oh and my exacto knife. The cap fell off in the bag and I reached in...luckily it was a small nick.

FINISH THIS SENTENCE, "IF I WASN'T A SCRAPBOOKER, I WOULD SPEND MY MONEY ON..."
Clothes, shoes, make-up and it shows. My wardrobe hasn't been looking all that hot these last few years.

GIVE US YOUR BEST STORAGE OR ORGANIZATIONAL IDEA.
A curtain rod from Ikea for $2 for your ribbons. Or check out out Target's end caps where they have their clearance stuff. I picked up these ribbon organizers by Snapware (I think) for $4.19. It's great for toting your ribbons to a crop and it keeps out the dust. Plus they stack nice too.

YOU JUST WON A WEEK LONG SCRAPBOOKING CRUISE FOR 5. WHO'S GOING WITH YOU?
My buddies Christine , Veronica, Nichole, Kelle , Rachel, Julie, and oops, that's more then 5. Guess someone is going to have to hide in my suitcase!

AFTER YOU'VE ANSWERED THE QUESTIONS, TAG YOUR SCRAPBOOK BUDDIES.
No one else has a blog besides these two and Julie tagged me. Me thinks more of my friends need to get a blog.
