i hear you… it feels great to know others feel the same way! i have enough trouble getting my editing done and keeping on top of my house… im not sure why i insist on piling clean washing on my bed to fold later that day, when i know it will only end up on the floor or the couch that night cause it was forgotten till i was to exhausted to be bothered folding it! i figure atleast its washed so it could be worse!!!

So, I had time to myself yesterday, but I whiled it away playing my piano and going online! LOL! I should have been changing my sheets. Maybe tonight. I forgot all about it. The piano is a novelty, because I finally got it tuned and it sounds decent now for the first time in years. Of course it distracted me from other tasks I probably should have been doing.

Good luck with the babysitter hunt! I think it would be fun to babysit the twins! Love the pic with the "faces!"

Thanks so much for posting this! Ever since I heard of that touch it once rule, it's like I've been on a perpetual guilt trip. I feel liberated now. I wish you the best in your search for a babysitter – hope you find someone wonderful

I have to tell you, aside from your obviously fabulous photography skills, you are an amazing writer! I am constantly in lol mode when I read your blog and it is such a joy. So comforting to also know that juggling the work at home/ be a mom/ be a superwoman role is challenging on your end, too. You make the chaos seem fun, nonetheless.

Oh, good gosh. You just must tease me for living overseas, hm?

I would give anything, as I'm not a mother myself[not old enough, lol], and your kids are the most precious, gorgeous children I've ever seen and wished to meet, to move to Aussie and live near your darling family, and, most of all, have a chance at nannying beautiful Clover and young man Kieran. Seriously. I would move from Texas to Melbourne -just- to spend a few hours a day with your little ones.

I so wish to meet you and your family someday. Maybe even for a photoshoot that my family can't afford. Please, email me if ever I can do anything for you. I have you in my prayers that you'll find a sitter that'll just blow you away with how completely perfect she is.Give the littles my love[along with Gemma], and tell Miss Gemma I said stay beautiful.

Good luck, dear. < 33

I know I'm a much better parent when I've had a break from my kids. Both of my kids had a one-on-one sitter until 2 and then entered a stellar preschool–until 6 PM. They've both thrived. If I could get them by 4 and then be able to make dinner earlier, that would be ideal…. but we do what we gotta do!
