I apologize for being M.I.A. It's hard finding time to blog with 5 kids.
And to be perfectly honest when I do have a minute to myself I've been on

Terrible I know! I've been pinning like crazy and trying a few things..some good and not so good.
These are good.

I've been doing a lot of thinking.. the other day when I was thinking about sitting down to blog..I thought I don't have any cute crafty things to post, or home improvements to share, I didn't have anything but a crying baby and half of a menu planner done. And then I knew that was what I needed to blog about. Sometimes I think we bloggers often try to portray ourselves as having it all together. This happy little bubble of a blog life but in reality I feel like I'm running a marathron. Now don't get me wrong I love my "marathon" running most days.Trying to figure out balance in life is what is hard..finding how to manage the must do's and the I want to's. So that's where I am running a marathon while balancing. :) I feel a little like the Cat in the Hat!
Speaking of balancing...Becky had an awesome post and thought it was crazy like she was reading my thoughts! If you know me schedules are a must...go check it out here.
