Boing! Boing! We're bouncing along.....

Hi, everyone!
It's Saturday, and with that usually comes a brand new challenge at Catch the Bug. This week, we're switching things up a little bit: 
As you may know, Ms. Min, our awesome Assistant DT Coordinator, is expecting her first 'little miracle' this month! What better way to celebrate than with a 
Blog Hop for Mom-to-Be, and Baby!?

If you did not come here from Billie A's blog, please hop over to our Catch the Bug post where our hop begins. When you're all finished hopping, please leave a comment for Min, maybe some tidbit of advice based on your experience as a parent? Or.....make a guess at the date or weight of the new 'lil bundle of love!


For my card, I chose the AKV Time Well Spent - Reading Time image from Bugaboo Stamps. When I was little, reading was my #1 favorite thing to do, and it was always so much better with mom!
My advice, Min.....read together, at least a few moments every day. Forever. :) It creates such a wonderful bond when baby is is "baby", and that lasts forever! :)
Oh.....and I am sure you've already heard this from a lot of people, but sleep when baby sleeps!! Lol! :D
Hugs and love to you, Mama-Min! Enjoy your hopping!

I colored the image in PhotoShop Elements, and added a sentiment, then printed. I cut the edge using Spellbinders A2 Curved Borders. I also cut the brown card stock edge and the pink card stock edge with the same set of dies. My dp is an old one from Stampin' Up that I had in my stash. I added a heart brad, and everything is atop an A2 card base.

Your next stop along our hop is Dee's blog!


Happy Hopping!
I'll see you with more Bugaboo cuties on Aug 20, when the DT returns from their brief summer vaca (which runs from today through the 19th of this month)!
Enjoy the cutie-patooties! :)
