It is very hectic with two kids. Everyone tells you it will be busy, but multiply that by ten and it is more accurate. Between nursing, preparing meals, changing twice the number of diapers, fighting with the attention-seeking two-year-old while the baby is crying because she's tired, it is not easy.
The past few days have been wonderful, though, as nap times are starting to line up and those afternoon moments get longer. I finally have a few moments to sit down and just watch TV while eating my lunch, without having to think about getting the laundry folded or planning my grocery shopping. It is quite difficult, though, to turn off the brain at night - I end up reading a little longer than I probably should, just so I can go to sleep!!
So, what do I do during the rare quiet times? Sometimes I just sit and eat my lunch in peace, watching Modern Family (a show I never saw, but so many friends have told me it's good I've got to try it out) or Big Brother (I seem to miss the first half hour or so at night due to Stella's bedtime). Sometimes I work on projects that need completing - photo editing, decorating, etc. Sometimes I clean because it's easier to do when the kids are not around, like dusting or mopping.
Here are the links to the latest photos on Flickr. I can't believe that little mushie is going to be 4 months old so soon!! The time has flown by.
