altered book im working on right now......

I really enjoy doing altered books once i get the pages all stuck together and the paint painted and dried its fun fun fun hehe....so this is one that im doing for cody title is 'all fixed now?, the question mark because its a matter of time for us to see weather this will fix his issues or maybe just help them out a bit...so after the title page which i posted a few days back this is the first page with a bit of writing aobut his ear infections (dont tell me bout all of my errors okay haha) and then getting hte first letter which is in the pocket, about him not being serve enough after 19 ear infections....
next is the letter with the appoinment date to see the spcialist YAY......i know i have letters missing i need to buy some more to finish it off....operation date, which has the leaflet they gave us after his op and also the letter with his operation date and info about when he has to stop eating etc etc.....and its just a bit aobut the lead up to his op date etc...this is my favourite page so far i just love how its come out, so thats me and cody and my dad behind us coming out of the superclinic not long after his op.....then his hands with his hospital braclet on which he hated on haha....and his hospital braclet undernearth...
and then the photo is on paper like a flap to open up to all my writing about the day of his op before during and after, also the photo opens up to cute ah.....i love this pagemy favourtie photo had to do a close up for you all hehe....
the next day where he just slept on and off all day pretty much poor bubba.....
he even went to sleep in his pram hehe, that other photo you can see hes not 100% himself poor boy, probalby thinking what the heck did mum do to me hehe.....sorry these next photos not to good its the bad lighten of taking them at night....
hi in his cot cuddling teddy when he did his one good night sleep, and the words page im just woking on and noting down words he use to say and stuff hes coming up with now already only a week after the grommets go in....
and this is just a side on of the whole book i love little bits sticking out it makes it all that more interesting i think.....i never use to it all had to be inside the pages but not now....ive panited the next two pages blue and they are for the photos of the rash infection he got around his ears, but i still need to get one photo printed out yet and then im leaving the next two pages for me to do in a few months time to write up how cody is in regards to health sleep and talking see what major changes there are......so that will be interesting ah.....

The mini book looks great, it's a wonderful idea to document everything. Will be good to look back on in the future, too!
