So, this two kid thing is a bit tricky at times....well, very tricky...i know levi is only 3 weeks old so we are still in the intense nursing-all-day time, but when they are both wanting/needing your attention and aren't afraid to be a bit vocal about it....and with daddy about to go back to work until 8:00 at night...tears are ordered all around....
Here is a list of the things I need to learn to do no-handed while nursing:
1. cook. i need to be able to do this both while nursing and, if possible, while holding mason as he sometimes will cling to my leg crying the entire time I am trying to fix something for him to eat.
2. clean.
3. give baths.
4. talk on the phone.
5. go to the bathroom more than once a day.
6. shower--for the love...a girl needs to shower.
7. sleep.
8. exercise.
9. EAT!
10. put mason to bed at naptime and bedtime.

A sling would defenitily help...good call adventurer, You just gotta learn how to use it first :P All the best to you and your two gorgeous boys!
This is great!! I love your blog!! While I have no experience in this department, I truly think every woman needs a nanny, or at least a good mommy friend, or other community member to pool resources with, and share all those duties you need super powers to handle! The Native Americans had something going, really any of those tribal cultures - they knew no one woman can do it all by herself, with any sanity! Group effort is key, and putting kids to work early has to be somewhat helpful! GOod thing you'll have two strapping young men to put to work for you very soon! Hang in there! You are achieving the impossible on a daily basis! Can't wait to see you and meet Levi next month! xoxoxo Christina, aka "Tina Sparkles"
