LIFE WITH TWO

Life with two is going suprisingly well! Every random stranger I run into says "you must be busy" and YES I am, however it is not near as bad as I thought!When it gets bad, it gets bad FAST, but it's still okay! My house is feeling the effects of two under two, but thats alright it will get done someday, for now my obsessive cleaning is going to be put on hold while I nurse and run one kid to the potty! I think I am getting the hang of it, and I have come to the relization that never again will it be fun to go into a store with any shelfs lower than 4 feet. I think all moms have "BREAKDOWN" moments, and you can either laugh or cry, I choose either option regularly... but in the end it is just funny!

Claire on our "RED-NECK" weekend, we went fishing and for a hike, it was beautiful. Dave informed me that I married a red neck and I better get used to it. IT was fun... until I smushed a spider on my back, then I quickly called it a day! Dave married an arachnaphobic and he better get used to it! HA!
Claire and her man
Dave made her a walking stick, he later had to teach her to use it, when we found her what else? Eating it!
Our Little Olivia, still a colicky little toot, but we just love her to bits! She is smiling a ton in the morning and starting to tell us stories! We took her to the doctor today, and she is 13.5 LBS, in the 95 percentile, not suprising! She's our Chunker!

You're so right- either laugh or cry. I'm starting to laugh more.:) I would have DIED if I smashed a spider on my back. Died. You're a good sport.

I'm impressed that you are or have potty trained Claire! Alex has no interest in it, which is ok with me for now! I agree that 2 isn't as hard as I thought, it's just that my house is a mess all the time now! I've learned to let it go! Claire and Livy are beautiful!!
