Avery's Art Journal

Just popping in for a minute to show you the latest two spreads I've done in Avery's art journal.
 
 Over Thanksgiving break we took the kids on their very first cruise!  They were so excited, and they mostly loved it (poor Riley dealt with a bit of sea-sickness, unfortunately).  But Avery probably loved it most of all.  She still talks about it almost daily!  So I did a spread in her book about it.
 
The next spread is about being a "bigger, bigger" girl.  Being the youngest of three kids, she constantly hears, "Only the big kids get to do it" or similar.  Her argument is always, "But I'm a bigger, bigger girl!"  She adds extra "bigger"s depending on the situation, hoping to make a better case for herself!  She's 3 1/2 now, and is adamant that she's going to be 5 next (because big brother Noah is 5)- she just can't wait to be a big kid!
 
Hope everyone's having  a great week!

  1. Darling. You are do such a great job with layering, colors and fantastic photos. What a keepsake. Josie is 6 wanting to be 14 to keep up with her big sister. I can't believe Avery is 3.5 already.

  3. p.s. My 3 year old also has to hear only the big kids can do it all the time. Poor little ones! It's hard to be the baby!
