Hey BABY, Let's HiP hOp!

Happy Thursday, friends! If you're on the Unity hip hop train and coming to me from the lovely Patter's blog, then you've figured out that this week we're celebrating BABIES!!! Visit Angela at the Unity Blog for the deets on all this week's fabulous deals and 2 new releases--yeah baby, you heard me right!! Tickled Pink and Bouncy Blue are perfectly sweet additions for baby.
Blast from the past!!!....Angela is making us put up baby pics of ourselves and this one is a real doozie, lol! I don't know what the occasion was that I got to wear a paper party hat, but I know I under a year old here and as you can see from my (only slightly older aunt's) pj's, it was the 70's, lol! Isn't my mommy beautiful :)
And speaking of beautiful, do you totally have to have the April KOM {Fresh Beginnings} yet?! I'm completely gaga for it, it's absolutely delightful--see for yourself!

I don't have any human children, however, I do have a fur-baby and it's as if she were my child, so I altered a small wooden block it into a keepsake of my little girl. I had fun stamping directly onto the treated wood with my dots background from Oh Happy Day!, hearts sprig (Jan KOM-Love Etc.) and {I heart U} sentiment (Aug08 KOM-Remember Happiness).

On this card, I deviated a bit from the typical idea of "baby" themed, but how could I resist playing with Owl Always Love You when it has this super fun sentiment with the word baby in it, thank you very much, lol!

And here's a couple of the most adorable babies in my life, my beautiful niece Hannah (did ya think that was our own JIMMI as a baby? lol) and my precious nephew, Johnny (who, when told to smile and say "cheese, sqeezes his own cheeks like this) hehe. Sweethearts, aren't they! :)
Your next stop on the hip hop is Renee and she is certainly going to have some tremendous inspiration for us today! Don't forget that we party like it's 1999 all day and night over in the Unity SCS Forum and you're invited, so hop over there after you find the blog candy at the end! Thanks for visiting and have a great day!
