Two Scrapbooking Challenges Today!

Today I incorporated 2 challenges into 1 scrapbook page. I used Apron Strings Croptober 10/17 challenge and used the Stuck on U Sketches sketch Oct 11-24.
The challenge over at Apron Strings was to incorporate any elements from their 2-page layout....black, white, orange, bats, 31, etc. And here is the sketch from Stuck on U:

Here is my layout: 

 

Wyatt was only 4 months on Halloween and he was such a trooper! His costume was warm. It was actually cool that night and it even sprinkled rain a bit. My sister, her husband, daughter, Wyatt and I were dressed up and went to Chipotle to get a free burrito. (or BOORITO as they called it!) Then we went trick or treating. Not Wyatt lol, he pooped out and just wanted milk. ;) Of course...baby cow...

Apron Strings Croptober: Oct 15 Pinterest Challenge

I can't believe it's been 2 months since I have updated my blog :( Shame on me!! I will be better. So first, we did find out boy or girl about 9 weeks ago lol...and.....

It's a GIRL!!!!

We are beyond excited and just feel SO blessed. Everything is going well and I'm about 25 weeks now. I am getting a progesterone shot every week since Wyatt was about 3-1/2 weeks early. I feel pretty good considering we are also MOVING! BUT....the best news is....we are finally buying our first home. So I feel extra extra blessed that we are able to do this. It has been a rough 4 years trying to get into a position where it would be possible. Just goes to show you, NEVER give up and anything is possible! 

Now, on to the Apron Strings Pinterest Challenge! I created a scrapbook page that used pleated paper just like the card from the challenge. It was a little difficult folding the design paper and it left visible creases, but I just turned it over and it looked great! I actually made a pocket using it so it would hold the map to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo. I forgot how much I LOVE to scrapbook!!!
