Craaaaazy

"It won't be like this for long.

One day we'll look back laughin'

At the week we brought her home

This phase is gonna fly by

So baby just hold on

'Cause it won't be like this for long"

Life is crazy.

It's good, but crazy.

Someone told me once that it just feels crazy for the first few months after the second one is born. 

It's been SIX.

I don't sleep much and am never caught up with laundry or cleaning and I am SO behind on my scrapbooks and my DVR And trying to make exercise a priority feels very selfish when I hardly see my babies as it is.

I hate to see dog owners that leave their dogs chained up outside 24 hours a day. Why did they even get a dog if they didn't have time for it?

I sometimes feel like that kind of dog owner with these boys. Working full time and fitting in everything else leaves little time to just sit and play. Or at least a lot less than I would like.

On top of that, Eli has entered the terrible (horrible awful) twos, but the DUDE with the TUDE only comes around when MOMMYs around. I am amazed at how quickly he can turn it on for me. And when I see him for a few hours every day, it sucks to have to discipline him as soon as I walk through the door.

So that's life, and it's fun and I wouldn't trade ANY of it (besides my job.)

Thank goodness I have a husband that cooks and cleans and likes to play with babies. And doesn't care that I fall asleep on the couch at NIGHT a LOT because I can't keep my eyes open once I sit down collapse.

Sammy Sam was 19lbs at his check up this week. 75th percentile. (Eli was 22 lbs and >95th at 6 months.)

The doctor said we were the first well child check up he has had all week that he hasn't already seen the child for some type of virus this winter. So thankful for no daycare. (And knocking on wood right now. )

Until next time ...
