Life with two

I used to consider myself the consummate multi-tasker...that was until my husband left on a business trip Monday and I was left alone with our two kids for the first time for a few days/nights. Pop Quiz - Your preschooler decides she has to use the potty right when your newborn desperately wants to nurse - who needs you more? The day is filled with these kinds of questions that have no correct answer, but might result in more clean-up later, crying, frustration, or all of the above.

Truthfully though, going from 1 to 2 is infinitely easier than going from 0 to 1. Others may disagree, but I've been surprised by my utter calm within the eye of the storm. Turns out I know what the hell I'm doing. So far so good.
