To start another hobby? LOL! I am Mandy, mom to 4 and part-time NICU nurse on the weekends. I love photography but I've been bitten by the knitting bug and have been doing that for the last 2+ years. I knit mainly for my babies as I make diaper covers/pants/shorts out of wool yarn. My youngest is 8 months and my oldest will be 8 years old in January. My friends have told me that I would love digital scrapbooking but I guess I just never really even looked into it...until now

So tell me what I've been missing

Oh Mandy...I'm afraid now that you've found us nothing is ever going to get done again. I mean no knitting, no work, kids will have to do on their selves and so on. So sorry to have had to break the news to you this way but felt you needed to know the truth.

hehehe

Welcome to SBB!!

Wow, you do sound busy. But digital scrapbooking can be rewarding in so many ways, I think even if you only do a few pages a month that you will enjoy it and gain alot. Just think of all the stories you can tell for your kids! I have 4 kids as well (11, 10, 7, 2) and I love all the moments I've been able to capture for them to look back on in years to come.

Welcome to the site, I hope to see you in some of the chats and challenges. See you around the gallery!

You certainly are busy but there is always time for a hobby that you love

There is a bit of a learning curve (mostly trying to figure out the software) but once you are hooked.. look out! Feel free to ask questions and just jump in!
