I keep all the pics on an external hard drive, organized by year and month. Then it makes for creating a photo book easier since I don't have to figure out the order, that it was there already.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2254499835546337750.post-86585228642405672592011-01-11T19:26:59.978-06:002011-01-11T19:26:59.978-06:00Thanks so much for stopping by.

As the moms in my moms of multiples group always say: the days are long, but the years are short. Which of course makes it hard to find the time to do this despite how quickly it all goes by. *sigh*Mama Bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07828936673145226848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2254499835546337750.post-75291595013424156292011-01-11T14:01:13.982-06:002011-01-11T14:01:13.982-06:00Oh geez, I couldn't have said any of that bett...Oh geez, I couldn't have said any of that better myself. Talk about reading my mind and my heart.<br /><br />I also started a one-line-a-day journal. It's actually just a weekly planner and I write a few thoughts/memories/funnies each day about each kid. Takes me 5 minutes tops, and I've already found myself searching for the moments. It's really changing the time for me...I find myself enjoying it. And even though 10 years from now I might not remember what some of my notes meant, they're there and it made an impression.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12383136325211182954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2254499835546337750.post-10188954544349585852011-01-11T13:49:50.485-06:002011-01-11T13:49:50.485-06:00I can totally sympathize.

Looking at pictures of him from those times is bittersweet, especially during the years we were desperately trying to have another baby. <br /><br />I do find time when I can to document. I am in a scrapbooking club that meets once a quarter for an all day crop, and I carry my flip camera everywhere. But, sometimes it is better to just put down the camera and just BE.<br /><br />I have not found that balance yet, but I try.Delennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12567889031642608101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2254499835546337750.post-468260078978152562011-01-11T13:25:18.023-06:002011-01-11T13:25:18.023-06:00It is so hard to keep up, try and remember everyth...It is so hard to keep up, try and remember everything. I only got about half of my Christmas cards out this year, too.<br /><br />I love to scrapbook, but honestly, I've never made it past Miss O.'s 2nd month...and she'll be 7 in March! I keep saying I'll do it, but when?<br /><br />((HUGS))Photogrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13709453130822429881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2254499835546337750.post-25744738373788094432011-01-11T12:12:19.168-06:002011-01-11T12:12:19.168-06:00Have you started to use the One Line a Day book ye...Have you started to use the One Line a Day book yet?
