Five on Friday

FRIDAY!!! Linking up with Darci from The Good Life Blog and Natasha from Hello Happiness Blog for another week of total randomness.
 

1. Balance. I need to do a better job at finding a balance and being present. Life gets busy, the to-do lists are never-ending, and all of a sudden large chunk of time goes by where I don't remember time where I just sat and soaked in Little Buddy or did something that I enjoy....like blogging about random things :) I don't exactly know how to accomplish this...maybe it's cutting back, being a better planner, or just being more organized. I just know I don't want to continue to carry the stress and this mental buzz that fills my head. I feel like these are the moments I'm missing....the small ones. 

My little....

family.

 2.  Day Off. We didn't have daycare today so I took the day off. This is what got me thinking about balance. I had the entire day with Little Buddy without having to rush out of the house for work or errands. We shopped, played, rough-housed, and snuggled. This darn kid...how did I get so lucky?

Iced coffee, snow banks, wagons, and winter coats.....

Having a picnic on Little Buddy's new picnic table...that somehow ended up in our living room?

Snuggles....

3. Never-ending Snow. Will it ever go away??? Our tennis team is finally practicing outdoors on a court that has 8 feet of snow all around it. TIME.FOR.SPRING!

This is NOT tennis weather! I put on my snow shoes and stomped all the way home!

4. Favorite Photo. I know I've already gone overboard on Little Buddy pictures, but I can not resist just a few more. She slipped and (gently) fell outside....not to mention being a little bit on the tired side and her big tears just melt my heart. 

5. How's this for RANDOM!! This is now my least favorite nail polish. I have put about 9 coats on trying to make it look nice and now it looks like I dunked my hands in Elmer's glue and called it nail polish. 

Ballet Slipper: I am done with you!
I have old, beat up hands...no need for a large picture :)

Enjoy your weekend!!!!
