floundering in sickness

I have a cold...

Miles has a cold...

Lacey has a cold...and a yeast infection...and 3 teeth coming through at once...

Yesterday was the first day, as a mom of two, when I really felt like I couldn't do my job. So far it's gotten more difficult the older Miles gets. Sure he's sleeping better, and he is far more predictable, but gone are the days of wrapping him tightly to me and going about my business. He wants attention, he wants to look around, he wants to interact.

And so comes the days of entertaining one child or another from 7 am to 8 pm. I am on the go constantly and need someone to tell me that it really DOES get better. Hopefully soon.

Off to get Lacey up from her nap before she wakes up Miles...

absence

I've been busy!

I'm still not sure how other mom's with more than one child find the time to browse the internet, but I am certainly failing miserably.

the good news is....MILES IS SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT!!! About 2 weeks ago he started sleeping about 10 hours a night. The past two nights we've hit 12 hours. Lacey is 19 months old (today!) and I still can't get her to sleep 12 hours.

Here are some pics of the kiddos. Miles is 12 weeks today and Lacey is 19 months.
