I was holding off on posting until each evening, thinking that would be better because I could report what I'd been doing, but by then I was too tired, so I'd fall asleep before I could post. So, it's just better if I post the morning after each day when things are fresh in my mind, and I'm a little less sleepy. (And forgive the blurry photos, the lighting is pretty terrible most of the time.)
I spent Wednesday printing and cutting the photos of Annabelle that I knew I wanted for this spread. I ended up printing way too many pictures (she's just so cute!), so I whittled them down by trying to focus on photos where she was wearing red or it was strongly featured. I think I only kept a couple that break that rule. I gathered up everything I could find that I knew I wanted for the layout, but by then it was bed time.
I was thinking about the project all day yesterday, just excited to get to work, but I had tons of stuff I needed to take care of. I finally sat down to start working around 7:30 last night. I was just starting to figure out a layout when there was a huge avalanche of LEGOS and Charlie onto the floor next to the couch. He wasn't hurt at all, but there was a huge mess. While Mitchell and I were cleaning it up, we discovered a bag of foam letters that I'd forgotten about. I was pretty excited because I hadn't known how I was going to title the page. So last night, I was able to sort through the letters to find and spell what I needed. I also decided to use some cute ribbon with strawberries underneath the letters to make them stand out more. By then it was bedtime, so I had to clean up again.
I'm excited to get into more layout stuff, and actually putting things down today. Maybe I can get better pictures in a different room, especially if I work during the day instead of night.
