a whole new meaning to home office

almost a year, to the day, before C was born we got new flooring in our upstairs and re-did our office.  here are a few pics of it in the process of being set up and decorated.





today that office is c's nursery! my favorite room in our home!



we moved our 'real' offices out to the building where B works.  i have an office out there as well with a new desk and chair from my parents but i've never used it.  the office is about 30 minutes away from our home so i don't go out there but maybe once every two weeks and when i'm out there its not to do office work.  its usually just to visit B.   

these days this is my home office...
and I WOULDN'T CHANGE IT FOR A THING IN THE WORLD!!!
C in his bouncer, macbook, my favorite cup, notebooks and the boobpump in the background by the window ;)  haha!  some days i struggle to figure out how to balance being a full time momma, getting any type of work done for our business and getting housework done.  a productive day for me also includes a shower, that doesn't happen every day ;)  i suppose i better get to doing something now my brother, nephew and sis and i are meeting at a park for lunch!!

There definitely aren't enough hours in the day. Somehow you will find a balance. Its tough though.

Ha! My office is the kitchen counter. Where I'm standing right now.

And I haven't showered yet today.

I always wonder how productive I'd be if I worked from home... I think being self employed (kinda) probably makes a HUGE difference for you.. and who would want to leave that sweet little boy!
