Gabe,

Balancing life and projects is a challenge. I have a 1.5 year old son and soon to be 7 year old daughter and am attempting to follow a similar route with my 1972 but I've admitted to myself it'll be a years long project. I think it helps by breaking down the entire process into little steps which you can complete in a reasonable amount of time, and then step away from the project for a bit while you focus on what is important - Your family. You still have a fun car to drive, albeit not quite as special as what you're building will be, so just try to be patient. It's not easy, we all have this vision of what our cars will be when complete, but unless we do this professionally and have kids who are grown, it's generally not reasonable.

Take that 997 out with the family and pick up your project again when you've found a renewed sense of vigor for it.
