It seems like there is so much I want to do, that I begin to become overcome with obsessive emotions of wanting to accomplish everything right now! Which then leads to a great feeling of being overwhelmed which leads to sitting in a state of stupor until I take the plunge and begin a task. And this doesn't even have anything to do with Christmas being on the horizon.
This wouldn't be a problem if I didn't care so much about having things dones - like painting rooms, working on the house, making crafts, etc... But I want to do them. And with 2 children it seems so impossible. And I struggle with wanting things done now. I've decided I want to paint the spare bedroom/craft room which means I want to wave my magic wand and have it done now. However things like Thanksgiving next week, Christmas shopping and the basic necessities of feeding and caring for children kind of get in the way.
Does anyone know what I'm talking about? I can see the cake, but do I get to eat it too? For example, I love to blog - but I feel I never have the time to do it. How Melissa gets all those pictures and blogs taken care of, I will never know!
Any suggestions...
Meanwhile, tonight we gave Ava her first taste of cereal. She's been waking up in the middle of the night after 3 months of perfect 9 hour nights, so we figured she may need a little something more. She thought differently...
She kept giving me this look that said "really... this... why do you want me to eat this." Try again tomorrow.
And while I was feeding the little one, Dayne was trying to teach Leilani to pose. Result below.
And anyone want to design me a new header or have any suggestions. My creative juices don't really flow into creating something from nothing.
