Photobook {Olivia's First Year}

Our lovely Livy turned one back in November and I've finally finished her first year photobook! These long, cold winter evenings are good for some things! Enjoy friends!

(I've used a tonne of different things from my stash as well as my own designs so there's no possible way to source everything! If you're interested in something specific, please email me and I'll try my best to let you know what kit I sourced it from!)

Our Family Photobook

Back in early September, my cousin Amy took some lovely pictures of our family and I had a wonderful time putting them into a Shutterfly book with the Chalkboard Chic design by Paislee Press... What a treasure to have these pictures... I'm so thankful!

Brennah: The Fourth Year

Despite the fact that she's nearly five, I finally finished Bren's Fourth Year book while we were at the cottage in late August! It was a pretty exciting year for Bren... When I asked her what she liked best about the book, she told me she loved Livy... I think that was the highlight for all of us last year... When I browse the pages of this book, my heart is full... I love, love, love this happy, joyful girl!

A Little Bit of Pretty {Olivia}

It was a tough weekend here... On Thursday morning Livy woke up with a high fever... We attempted to keep it down all day Thursday with Tylenol and cool baths... By Friday afternoon, her temperature had exceeded 105... I called my doctor and we were told to take her straight to the ER... We spent six hours in the ER... It was a difficult six hours... They tried to take her blood for testing FOUR times... It was torture for her and in the end, they never did find a vein... They ruled out all the obvious things so we were sent home with no answers.. All day Saturday her temperature was still around 103... So we prayed... And the Lord heard our prayers, along with those of many others... Sunday morning, the fever finally broke... She's still recovering and getting back to normal... I'm thankful that she's finally fever free after more than three days... And thankful that it was just a virus and not something more serious! I've never been through anything like that with any of our girls before... And it was a good reminder to not take anything for granted... So today I leave you with one of the sweetest bits of pretty I know, our Livy!
