Balance

I am having a hard time blogging, in case you haven't noticed. Part of it is because I am trying to find a nice balance in my life. Work/family/house. I LOVE hanging out with my family and that always comes first. I also LOVE photography, so I am always trying to squeeze that in too. I also LOVE having a clean house, but am finding it harder to do that myself. I have hired out help in my busy season but am now trying to save that money so it is back to balancing again. I also love to journal my family's story but I have a hard time with the fact that every photo I post to this blog needs to be resized for the blog, and then when I pull all the posts to my blogbook, I need to re-add the photos I want to be BIG in high resolution, so it takes a LOT of time. And it seems tedious. BUT since I haven't found a better way, I am just going to try catching up on this old blog so I can have some updated entries for 2012! Ok thanks for listening That has really been weighing on my mind lately.

So first up is the kids fort.  Of course this was a while back now, but since I like to document and remember the happy moments we enjoy, I couldn't leave this out.  Like any kids, my girls love to build forts.  And this mama loves the memories it provides. Jadyn slept in that fort for a good 4 or 5 days in a row, I think Heidi joined her for one of them too.  I loved the friendship these girls are building.  With the ages my girls are, it seems like there is an increasing amount of fighting going on around here lately (that may or may not have a lot to do with the feistiness of a certain 3 year old) but there are also a lot of times when they play really well together!  I hope they will be the best of friends when they grow up!
