How many albums are you working on right now?

I know some just work chronologically and put everything into albums as they go in order by date.
Others just scrap what inspires and put into albums randomly as made.

For me, I'm an organizer and think in terms of buckets. I have to have albums for different things.
I currently am creating for
- heritage album (mom's side)
- Oldest son's album (done chronologically)
- Youngest son's album (done chronologically)
- Holidays (Christmas album, Pumpkin Patch album, and Easter album) Looking forward to a day when these are full of 18-20 years of memories in one book.
- Adventures (travel and outings) album (done chronologically)
- Extended family album (done chronologically)

I have 6 albums going all the time. One for each of the kids and one for me and Larry. So, when the kids are grown, I can give each of them their albums and still have the ones I made for me and Larry. Rarely, but occassionaly, I end up scrapping the same photo for 2 of the albums if it's one of my fave photos.

I scrap whatever photos are inspiring me. I intend to sort them "one day", but do have and album for "dancing", and another for heirloom/heritage layouts.

Some days I wish I could scrap in an orderly fashion! I started after my boys were out of school and my daughteralmost out, so I am behind. At first it panicked me, but I am more relaxed now. I just do whatever the challenge or the paper inspires me to do!
I am working on an album for one of my besties and hope to complete it by Christmas.

I have a family album, the 2 boy's everyday albums, the 2 boy's sports albums, the 2 boy's school albums, puppy album, wedding album, lakehouse album and, book of me album and special vacation album...all in chronological order, but I don't scrap that way. I grab the photos I feel like at the time and scrap, putting them away in their albums at the end of the week (or month, lately!).
