Life with 2 kids

Well we are having our first snow of the winter season today! I might add it is quite beautiful outside! Although its quite boring since not a whole lot has fallen here since it rained pretty much all night long so we are just hanging out today trying to stay warm and enjoy our time of being a family! So while Brent is watching Clayton trying to get him to take a nap we can thank Mr. Ayden for the reason why Clayton isnt napping right now since he thought it was a good idea to try and sit on him while he was trying to nap in my lap! LoL right now that seems to be the story of my life! Ayden is going through a whole lot right now in the since of jelousy of Clayton. Before Clayton got here it was all about Ayden and what Ayden wanted Ayden got right then and there if it was a snack, drink,being held by Brent or myself and getting every inch of our undivided attention! That isnt the case now Clayton is in away very demanding and requires a lot of my attention during the day and night. Ayden acts out right now with doing things that he isnt suppose to do to get our attention we are trying so hard to give him all the attention he needs but During the week it is especially hard since I am the one home with both kids while Brent is at work we are still after 2 months of Clayton being here still trying to find a good time management schedule that works. I am having to learn that the house cant be clean all the time, sometimes dinner gets put off and sandwiches are made instead since I havent been able to get one of the kids or both for that matter settled and that I cant sweat the small stuff that happens.It is very hard to do this but I am trying to find a happy medium.Hopefully I find it soon! At the very beginning I was constantly asked how is life with two little ones and my honest answer was it really hasnt changed much hahaha if i could go back and change those few words that came from my mouth! It is definitly a lot diffrent with two a lot more chaotic and loud thats for sure, the stress of if one kid gets sick praying the other one doesnt get it, double the messes and diaper changes and a lot less sleep! I know it sounds like I am complaining but Im not I wouldnt have my life any other way! I have learned that its ok to ask Brent for help I still hate doing it since I know he has been working all day and I have been at home but I have to remember that I have been working to all day just like he has just my office is home and my bosses are my kids.
Time to go help the hubby its getting a bit chaotic for him since both boys are now awake! So until next time!
