Every time I do another page for our photo books (which is hardly ever - as you can see by this finished one I'm only up to april 2009!) I wish I had kept better records (aka blog entries) on what we were up to...and I alternate between wishing I'd taken more photos and wishing I'd taken less. I'm pretty determined to get 2009 finished asap. I've got May all ready and waiting and hopefully in about a month I can get it printed...I'd like to think it'd be quicker but there's gotta be some report writing in there somewhere :(Malakai has officially stopped his afternoon sleep as of last week :( I'm so devastated. I had hoped to keep that going til preschool!! But it seemed it was starting to affect his night sleep so the decision was made. He's currently as tall as Josh was when he was 4, with still three more months til Malakai turns 4 himself. He's already expressed that he wants Josh at his preschool, 'Because I love him so much'. awwwww!! I love that :)
So I recently had my staff retreat, which was unlike any I'd been to before. In the week following, our Principal announced he would be resigning at the end of 2011. He's been there for 12 years, I've never had a different principal!! So it's interesting times at work. I'd still love to do just one day instead of 2, although lately I've been working 3 days a week due to various reasons. I find that's WAY too much and will try not to do it if I can avoid it from now on.
I bought a couple of DVD's recently ;) bit of a splurge I guess. I'm still waiting for Larkrise to Candleford to arrive, but I've got this one already and just waiting for a chance to watch it. I did watch it when it aired on TV, and I really liked it so I'm hoping it's as good as I remember lol!
I'm also re-reading The Ministry of Motherhood with this bookclub. It's quite amazing that I'm up to date so far (with the book reading side of things at least!) I don't remember much of it from when I read it before, so I'm underlining a lot more this time. Writing and underlining in my books is really new to me and I still feel kinda weird doing it, but I've noticed I get a lot more out of it that way.

it looks like you are getting through a bit! I have been a little overwhelmed with all the stuff I need to catch up on - not the least the family albums! I have started a simple school album for Nicholas and I think the key is keeping it simple. :)
yeah...the reason I haven't done anything at all for a long time is that rotten overwhelmed feeling. I agree, keeping it simple is the key, and thankfully I prefer that look anyway ;)
