    I just wanted to thank all of the helpful people here who have encouraged me. Thank you for introducing me to fonts. Thank you for the challenges. And thank you for discussing the pros/cons of printing pages individually which I am decided to do. I ordered my first set of prints and they arrived today. I LOVE having them in front of me. I can see some things that I want to improve on, so it is nice to see that now.

    My toddler approves of having the photos in front of him sooner rather than later.

    I'm addicted. Love it here at the 'pad. Today having the prints in front of me is a great motivator. Okay, end of love gush.

    How fun to have your prints done. I usually do books, but consider pages for some art journaling I'm doing related to a current problem. I really think doing it that way would be helpful and seeing your little guys face just added some emphasis to it.

    That might be the cutest pic I've seen in a long time! Kids love to look at LOs, don't they? :)

    And I'm jealous you've printed anything recently... it's been way too long since I printed any scrapbooking stuff (and except for the pic DS's preschool requested at the beginning of the year, I haven't even printed regular photos in about 10 months!)

    @gonewiththewind Yes this is a happy place to be.
    @carilyne Yes I'd encourage you to print some of those art journal pages. There is something special about the tangible page.
    @Tree City Thanks :) Yes kids love the layouts. I "started over" this year. And printed January and Part of February. Still working thinking of working backwards through last year, there are Christmas pictures that I will work on eventually. But it feels great to have something printed. I just had to come to peace that there is a gap in my albums right now.
    @scrapsandsass It's a great feeling to print pages. I'd recommend it highly. If you have plenty to scrap a photobook is more cost effective.
    @Danyale LOVE that your kids are still pulling out albums. That's some motivation for me right there!!

    Yeah for printing! That's an adorable photo. I'm glad you are here.

    And be careful about being grateful for font enabling! :giggle It's a sport for some of us!

    Yeah @bestcee! It's not a sport for me, but I had a great week or two really sinking my feet in it. Since then I've tried to back off and focus on scrapping. . . But playing with fonts is FUN.

    Don't you just love watching them look through your album?! My 3 look at ours almost daily. It's so sweet to see them remembering together and giggling. I'm so happy you have found a place you love here. It really is an incredible community! Happy to have you a part of it!
