Desperately behind on my blogging

I feel so far behind on everything. Pictures are in photo albums through October, but I have pictures through late January printed and ready to be sorted and put into albums. I have about 8 blog posts swirling around my head - several about Jocelyn and how much she is learning every day, and of course several about Donovan. This is none of those. And I have only filled out a few pages in Donovan's baby book (which, in hindsight, I should have started while on bed rest). The house is also a mess, I need to get tax stuff together, attend to dependent audit stuff and a bunch of other stuff. I can only do 1 to 2 things in a day - it's hard to get much done with a newborn - and sometimes one of those things is 'shower'. And, of course, there's the matter of 'sleeping when the baby sleeps.'

I know I should cut myself some slack. And I do with the housework stuff, to a point. But I need to keep it clean enough to be livable. That's all I aim to do. But I don't want to let the baby book slide. And since I am, I really don't want to let the blogging slide, since I may need to reference the blog to fill in the baby book. You see how this goes.

I don't think I have the mental ability to make a real blog post tonight. It's late. Donovan is asleep. I am trying to decide if I want to fill in a few more baby book pages or climb into bed.
