Now that I'm back from Grandma Land (hanging out with my daughter's family for a month), I'm finally doing some scrapbooking again. It's a great excuse to look at pictures of my cute grandsons, whom I miss so much!

It’s May, and I’m just now getting to my March roundup. That’s perfectly ok! I still have a few from past years to catch up on as well. I don’t feel too bad about it because I have the notes jotted down in my calendars. However, it is always easier to do it when the memories are fresh. Thankfully, March was a pretty easy month to remember.

Don’t forget to document what has happened this month. One of the greatest fibs we tell ourselves is that we will remember! It’s so easy to forget. Gather those memories and do your roundup while it’s all fresh in your mind!

Roundups. Recaps. Reviews. You can call them whatever you like, but the general idea is the same. Just take some time to write down what has happened recently, add some pictures, and call it good! That’s what I do at the end of each month, and I plan to keep going strong with this practice as long as possible.

If you don’t follow me on social media, you might not know that I have a brand-new grandson! Just 20 months after our wonderful grandson Calvin was born, his new baby brother Caleb joined the family. Mom and baby are doing great, and we are all having so much fun!

March is ending, and it’s a great time to do a monthly review and/or get caught up on your memories from this past month.

March has been quite a month for me, so I haven’t been able to get around to my February roundup until now. That’s okay; it’s never too late to work on recapping memories. Sure, it’s easier when they are fresh in your mind, but my roundup prompts help me keep track of my daily life. I make good use of my calendar to jot down the things that happen each day.

Chances are, if you are reading this blog, you know of at least one of these four women. They were all extremely influential in the field of scrapbooking as it rose to popularity in the 1990s and 2000s. They each played a big role in bringing personal documentation to the forefront of creativity and memory-keeping endeavors.

We have an extra day this month because of Leap Year, but I wanted to post the roundup prompts now to help us all think about how we want to wrap up this month.

I don’t know about you, but I started craving some chocolate once I realized Valentine’s Day is tomorrow! Thankfully, chocolate is a treat that still works for me. Being gluten-free can be tough on holidays! I’m definitely going to treat myself to chocolate-covered goodness, though!

I started working on my January Roundup and ended up designing a new template set! I envisioned a framework that would allow me to easily change heading titles, as I don’t always report on the same categories each month. I’m excited about how this turned out! Not only can you swap the wording, but you can even change the color of each heading background. There’s plenty of room for written details and spaces for accompanying pocket cards and photos.

I’m wrapping up STATS week here by sharing my number of followers on a few social media platforms. I’ve never been one to make a big push for followers. I honestly don’t think it’s the most important thing. What’s important to me is having a community that is rewarding to interact with. I’ve been so lucky to have readers who reach out with kind remarks and ideas. I love that!
