ABC's

I was peaking around some of my favorite blogs yesterday and was inspired to create a photo ABC book by Cheri at I am Momma. I really want to start teaching Zai his ABC's, so I thought this would be a fun way for him to learn. I basically just followed Cheri's instructions by uploading the pictures to picnik.com and added the text onto my photos.


I also wanted to share a few pictures from Zai's birthday party this past weekend...

Birthday Boy!



My baby is turning two =( I cant believe how much my life has changed in the last two years! Zai has been such a blessing to my husband and I. Ever since I was a little girl all I've ever dreamed of was being a mommy. Well mommyhood is NOTHING like I had imagined, lol, it really is not a glamorous job. Through all the sleepless nights, spills, laundry, and temper tantrums nothing could replace those first steps, hearing mama, and the endless love complete with hugs and kisses from my biggest fan. I wanted to make Zai a special outfit for him to wear while we celebrate such an amazing day. I embelished a t shirt with the number 2 in a cool construction themed fabric. I also added a cement truck and dump truck on the sleeves.

I then used this tutorial to make a cool birthday "crown" for the big day. I just added the number 2 instead of a star.



I will update later with action pictures =)
