Ok, so I've been slacking. After having a couple of different people ask me if I was ever going to update my blog, I decided that I had better at least post something. Sometimes I really hate being a perfectionist because it makes me realize just how imperfect I am.
This month has flown by. We have spent a lot of time working on our back yard and trying to get it finished by our July 1st deadline. We've had lots of late nights digging dirt and pounding in concrete forms. Jeff is still working over 60 hours a week and I don't know how he has the time or energy to do all he does in the yard! He's super man.
We had family come from Idaho to visit us a few times and I just love hosting them! In addition, the boys and I went up to Idaho for the last part of Carson's Spring Break. The first part of Spring Break was spent dealing with stomach flu.
Life seems to get busier all the time. Sometimes I feel like I just can't keep up with it all. The laundry, the dishes, training and correcting little ones, yard work, menu planning,training for a 5K, babysitting, Scentsy, weight watchers meetings, science experiments with Carson, baking, sewing, working out,being room mom, budgeting, spring cleaning, blogging... you get the point. Honestly, I don't know how some women are able to run households and be gone all day. They are amazing. Right now I feel like I have a full time job just keeping my house clean and on schedule. But this is what I want. Its what I studied in college. The science of homemaking thrills me. I sat down and talked with my science obsessed child the other day about albumin proteins in eggs and what happens to them when you beat egg whites. We connected; it was sweet. It made me thankful for my Food Science class. And thankful that I was able to be home to share that sweet moment with him. The little moments are really what its all about.
