I am so tired today. I have been losing some sleep, but I didn’t think that much. Tyler is napping, but Quinn is up, so I can’t really take the nap I would like to. Tyler will be on an outing this afternoon with Chris’ parents, so IF she decides to take a nap during that, I probably will too.

God, my perspective has changed so much now that I have two kids. Finding time to clean house, write thank yous, and do the little things I do seems impossible some days. By the time the kids are both asleep - I am exhausted. Of course, I think back to when it was just Tyler and I remember feeling like I could get nothing done then. Again I have to ask myself - what was the problem? What was so hard with one kid? Geez - one kid and two people no less?? Kind of wish I could do it all in reverse, but that isn’t how life works now, is it?

It is just so funny. On the bright side, to some degree, Chris and I know better about so many things this time around that the ride seems less bumpy. There are definitely days, but first six weeks didn’t seem as crazy… I think most of the challenge this time is handling all the conflicts that arise because it is two kids and one mama.

I will say there are certain things I can’t wait for….like her to get to an age when she doesn’t cry in the car. That is one thing I will be happy to wave goodbye to as she gets older…
