A Balintsed Life: I'm SEW crazy!
http://abalintsedlife.blogspot.com/2012/03/im-sew-crazy.html
Friday, March 2, 2012. My room is still always needing a lot of attention. I need to get rid of our ginormous dresser that's taking up all of our closet space in a not so helpful way, the side tables that collect random things, and the desk that really is just a giant junk drawer that never gets used. That all can't really happen until I buy furniture better suited for our needs. so its all on hold. So this is where all of my sewing and crafty things are ending up:. Seeing all of the fabrics laid out and...

A Balintsed Life: Spiced Applesauce Bread: GF, DF, EF
http://abalintsedlife.blogspot.com/2012/03/spiced-applesauce-bread-gf-df-ef.html
Monday, March 5, 2012. Spiced Applesauce Bread: GF, DF, EF. I'm out of eggs, any type of prepared snacks, and there are two little tummies (well three counting me! In need of a snack! So I adapted a recipe for Spiced Applesauce Bread to fit our needs! We're a 'clean eating' dinosaur/paleo diet kind of family. with some exceptions! I'm, as most of you know, gluten, dairy, whey, and casein free. I also try to stay clear of unnecessary sugar to keep my joint pain down and my gut in check! The chunks make it!

A Balintsed Life: The Schedule
http://abalintsedlife.blogspot.com/2012/03/schedule.html
Thursday, March 22, 2012. Lydia learned a lot of sign language, animal names, songs, and spanish phrases from shows like Baby Einstein and Dora the Explorer! 8:00am - This is when I've officially had my coffee by, the kids are really awake, and I make a bigger breakfast. As they're eating I try and get the laundry rotated and started, the house and their rooms picked up, and the vacuuming and sweeping done. It's easier to do all of those things when they are stationary! 2:00pm- Lydia gets her quiet time&...

A Balintsed Life: Imaginary Friends
http://abalintsedlife.blogspot.com/2012/01/imaginary-friends.html
Sunday, January 22, 2012. We were all sitting around dinner tonight when Lydia explained to us a new friend of hers so I thought I'd share her with you too! Her name is Flacka, she's a girl. She's invisible to us, but she's black and white and her favorite color is blue. She kind of looks like a hot dog and she likes to eat hot dogs. She only talks to Lydia, Grayson, and June- not mom and dad! She flies around a lot and likes to dance. Flacka moves REALLY fast and she likes to say "boo boo boo!

A Balintsed Life: Organizing and traveling
http://abalintsedlife.blogspot.com/2012/02/organizing-and-traveling.html
Monday, February 13, 2012. What a busy season we're in! I think the realization that we're leaving has stirred in me this need to enjoy my kids, my family, my friends, and my life here. More I've also been cleaning, organizing, and clearing out all of the extra clutter we don't need. Alaska is coming soon and although I know we won't be gone that. Long and that we won't miss the entire. Summer I feel this need to prepare myself to be away. The last few weeks I've been an organizing fool! My living room w...

A Balintsed Life: February 2011
http://abalintsedlife.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 25, 2011. Yesterday was what I consider an amazing day. My criteria for an amazing day is this. Chores get done 2. I get special one on one time with Lydia 3. I get special one on one time with Grayson 4. All three of us get a good nap 5. I get a nice alone/quiet time 6. I remember to eat 7. There aren't too many screaming fits from Lydia. I wouldn't think other days aren't great or anything. yesterday just happened to be exceptional! Plus WE GOT SNOW! How could I deny her that? I took h...

A Balintsed Life: Lydia turns three!
http://abalintsedlife.blogspot.com/2012/03/lydia-turns-three.html
Thursday, March 22, 2012. Well for Lydia's sake I hope we'll get to enjoy this snow and play outside for a little while today, but for my sake I hope the sun comes up, melts it away, heats up our valley, and we can officially enjoy some spring! We have just 37 days left until our little family heads to AK and I would really like some beautiful warm spring weather before we go! So what have we been up to? Well my baby girl turned 3 years old! Can you believe it? I can't. It all happened way too fast!
