So when do babies actually start to have a preference for their right or left hand? Laney seems to like the left hand. Any time she eats, she picks up the first bite with her right hand and will continue to hold it for the entire meal. Meanwhile, she will feed herself with her left hand. Finally before getting her out of her seat, I have to pry that first bit out of her right hand. Is that normal or is Laney just a bit odd?
School
After days like today I am not sure how I ever survived schooling. Today we had Professional Development Day (aka kids get the day off while their teachers go to work). While I only teach half-day I had to go the entire day to get paid. I cannot sit still and listen to others for that long. I am not sure how I survived my 12 years of schooling. I guess maybe I should cut my kids a little slack next week.
Scrapbooking
I have been a scrapbooker for the past 12 years or so. Last summer, my friend Jenn and my sister Courtney convinced me to try our digital scrapbooking. It is the best thing ever. I have a new found love for an old hobby. Luckily the two of them are good at it so I can ask them all of my questions. Here is my latest layout of Laney; it really is a 2 page layout. and yes, sometimes she does get to wear clothes besides her pajamas.

Let me be the first to comment Mandy since I have experience with ambidextrious children! I really do, Dallas my son is now I've decided left handed, but he's also incredibly ambidextrious, so you never know. It could take a while to determine which she is so just keep watching. Also for the record I wish you lived in AZ too, Courtney is a lot of work! Just kidding, and by the way love the layout, and when are you going to teach me?
I love the LO. Email it to me so I can see it in more detail (that makes it easier to copy!)
That layout is awesome Mandy. I'm going to have to start scraplifting your stuff. It has been so long since I scrapped, I think I have forgotten how to.
About the handedness issue, I think Ella has just started preferring her right hand within the last few months. But I can't remember (how's that for helpful?).
