18 weeks

I've not been blogging a lot lately, life has been busy and this little bean growing in my body is sure taking it out of me. Not to mean the 3 bigger beans growing outside of my body, those kids just keep getting busier and busier!

Anyway, I'm 18ish weeks now and can't believe I'm almost at the half way point. We've started pulling all the baby stuff out of storage as we go on holidays soon and need to know what we need before we go away as we will have to buy it all while we are away. That's the joy of having no shops anywhere near us.

But it has been great going through all the stuff with the kids and watching them get excited looking at their old clothes and the shocked looks on their faces when they realise just how small they once were.

Ethan has been getting a bit cranky when finding and remembering some of his old things and realising that the baby will be using them now and not him. But the happiness he shows when we talk about the baby puts my mind at ease that he will handle the addition of a baby to our family well.

I've also started a mini scrapbooking album for this pregnancy. I've never done that for the other kids, but after being inspired by Talia's posts over at ASWC, I thought I would give it a go.

So whilst things have been busy here, things have certainly been anything but busy in real life! Things will probably stay a bit quiet here over the next few months, but I hope to pop in now and again to say hi.

{Review and Giveaway} My Memories

A few weeks ago I was asked to try out a Digital Scrapbooking program. I was hesitant at first as I don't scrapbook. But I had been considering it and this also meant I wouldn't have to purchase any supplies (This made B VERY happy)

The digital scrapbooking program is called My Memories Suite and I have found it really really easy to use.

There are pre-made templates to use and you simply insert your photos and

Voila you are done!

I created an album in less than 5 minutes using photo's that would usually just sit in a folder on my computer. They have now been printed and will be put in an album once I get to the shops.

I also used them to create rainbow themed printables for Mahli's Rainbow party last weekend.

These were used for the bunting on the cake...

I also used them for food signs, but it doesn't look like I saved them... oops. But you can see some of them here.

So you don't just have to use it for scrapbooking! The options are endless.

There are a great variety of free layouts also, but if you would like you can easily shop from the My Memories Store and download the layouts straight into the software.

And if you want to build your layouts from scratch again this is so super easy. Even I could do it!

And guess what, you can too. I have one copy of the My Memories Suite software to giveaway.

All you need to do is head over to the My Memories Store and tell what your favourite layout is. Then complete the details in the rafflecopter widget.
