Charlie is ONE!!!

yup! my baby turned 1 yesterday~ it's kind of melancholic, he's not a baby anymore. And we won't be having any more kids so it's just not right that he's growing up so fast. He's got 5 teeth! He's starting to cruise (walking while holding onto things), doing simple things when asked (like putting a toy in a bag) and he's giving kisses now! that's my favorite!

Here are a few pictures of him enjoying his cake on Saturday. And of course i made his cake, Brady decided what kind of cake it was gonna be. I asked him a few weeks ago what kind of cake we should make for Charlie and he said: "hmmmm...a sheep" Me: "what color?" and here i was really hoping he wasn't gonna say white, because i had blue/lavender in mind. He said: "Blue" Yeah! i'm glad he was on the same wavelength as mom! So here are pics of the cake and Charlie enjoying it. Tomorrow he's getting his vaccins....loads of fun there too! sarcasm...

i decided to take part in this wonderful challenge that Scrappin-Barb is organizing on the SC forum. Every month of 2008 we will have a different questionnaire and we have to do a layout about ourselves using these questions. Here's my first layout.

Here's the journaling
journaling:
1. My current occupation is: customer service coordinator at Fruits & Passion
2. My dream job would be: photographer
3. If I could live anywhere in the world, it would be: how about the Caribbean, I heard today on the radio that there might be talk of Turks and Caicos being considered the 11th province of Canada…I’ll move there!
4. If I could have lunch with someone famous, it would be: Drew Barrymore, she seems like such a fun and easy going person.
5. The best birthday gift I could receive would be: time for me (no explanation needed)
6. If I had a million dollars, the first thing I'd buy would be: well I’d pay off my debts first then I’d buy a trip around the world and a new camera bag so I could bring it with me.
7. When I was a teenager, I thought that by my age I'd be: well I thought I’d have a career, I don’t consider what I do a career, it’s just a job.
8. The goals I'm currently working on are: getting published as a Scrapbooker and I’d love to make a DT in the year 2008
9. When I'm 80, I hope to I am doing this: well I hope that I’m healthy and able to travel and visit my kids and grandkids, and by that time I hope to be a photographer
10. The person I'd like to be more like is: no one in particular, but I would love to be a more patient person and not always getting angry so easily about the little things.
