Balance/Parenting

Everyone needs balance in their lives and at times it is tough. It is tough finding time for myself as I want to do my little craft projects. During the day may maybe some times during her naps, at night maybe, it just depends on if I want the dishes done, and meat set out for dinner to make. When I have some solid time to myself is when Neal is on a break from school. I need to start asking my parents here and there to watch Berkley so I can do those things for me. To break the monotony of things we go to the store, grandparents house, parks & Rec play morning that is inside, she will soon be doing swimming lessons.
I love my Berk so much but one thing I wish I would have done earlier was not have her be so clingy to me. She just wants do be by me 24/7 and it is tough to get things done, especially if she wants you to hold her as she clings on your legs.

Any advice?

I think asking someone to take her while you do run arounds for an hour or so is a good idea. Just tell the person watching her that she may fuss but she will be ok, and you will be ok also. Time to yourself is a great idea. I am sorry I could hang out on Saturday.
