Marathon Mural!

This is from one of the first nice days of spring.  The ground was still wet so we had Mikayo all geared up.  He loved feeling the grass, finding pine cones and eating them.  You'd think he would have realized they were not tasty after the first one but no, every time he came across another pine cone, into his mouth it went!  I still have journalling to do for this page but I went to my Stampin' Up group and managed to get most of it done there.  The paper and the adorable corduroy button are from SU.  Finding time to do the albums is getting harder and harder so I was pretty pleased with myself!!
I had a goal to get Mikayo's bedroom mural finished before his birthday.  5 days and 2 hours to go.  I don't think I'm going to make it but I've since made a goal to try to get even a little done every day.  It's hard when Mik is awake and when he's sleeping, I can't very well get in there either so I've found this extremely challenging!  Today I brought him a pile of toys and hoped he would be distracted enough for me to get a bit done.  Well he preferred climbing on my back to the toys and we had to call it quits when he discovered the dirt in the plant we have in his room.  All I managed to get done were Tzippy's feet!  Oh well!  Yesterday I got his little M for the bedroom door finished though.
