Just to be a smart aleck but, you could've got some of those things done on your list if you would've skipped the blog. ;)
cute!
I love the one about getting Chase down for a nap and making sure he knows he's special! :)
I feel your pain, except for the blogging and editing mirabella pictures part.. I cant even keep up with my own editing! oh and the craft part...that does not happen on a daily basis around here! I cant wait to see more of your adorable summer pics!
brooke-i loved you comment! haaaaa. but...i did the blog at 1:30am in the morning so i wouldn't have been much good at all the other tasks that late at night.
cass-i so don't do a craft daily! i would like to but that's the point-i need a schedule!
Yes, totally worth it. MOST days, anyway. ;-) Not to mention, totally exhausting. ESPECIALLY the running into the post office part. Ugh. If you mail priority you can do it online, which is nice.
