OMG I wish someone would have told me how hard it was going to be.. I cant even try to sugar coat this.. it is hard work like drive you super crazy hard work..
My boys are 2 years old and 7 months which means I am right in the middle of Potty Training and Teething.. now if you are not familiar with either it is beyond crazy..
Here is a part of a standard day in my house..I am trying to keep the little one busy with a frozen teething ring which he keeps dropping because it is too cold and they other one holding his penis and then peeing right next to the potty..which is in the living room because we can not all sit in the bathroom all day long
So after the accident, that is like a small lake on the living room floor, your little one who is only happy (for a few minutes) is on the floor falls backwards and starts to cry.. He is fine because per the doctor the front and back of his head are the hardest parts soo he is ok .. soo I have pee on me plus cleaning product which I have to drop to pick up my baby who is yelling..
When they are semi calm because Team Umizoomi is on.. THANK GOD for t.v. (educational tv at least)
I have to start on the dishes, breakfast dishes and bottles.. I have to keep checking on them just in case there is a new puddle or fall.. when I am half way done the little one starts to cry because his big brother wants to play with any toy he is playing with.. So I break up the madness and back to the dishes
I get to sit for a sec (which means be a clown or a piece of park equipment - a slide) and then I have to start to think about lunch .. it is non stop feed the big one or little one.. diaper/ training pant changes.. dishes clean up messes trying to do everyday chores like laundry change sheets vacuum sweep .. and then trying to get yourself together like hello brushing teeth hair picking out clothes that match.. forget that..
So plan ahead and EAT.. you will lose it if you don't soo get creative.. You need to eat or you will Lose it.. soo stock up on snack bars or instant meals ..I can eat what the big one eats but he is a growing boy so he does eat a lot soo that does not leave much for me.. Remember you have to share everything.. Even though you just feed the older one they are still going to want to taste what you are eating..
I just pray that I can make it through and that raising two boys soo close in age is not impossible because it sure feels that way..
