2. Running (though not as often as I'd like but enough to stay on the brink of sanity)
3. Crying-typically because its 3 a.m. & I just changed a poopy diaper 5 times in 45 minutes--no exaggeration here...& changed tiny long sleeved clothes 3 times due to marked spit up.
4. Coffee--I don't care if it purportedly decreases my breast milk production.
What was NOT included:
1. Sleep
2. Going to the bathroom alone (sometimes just standing in the bathroom for several minutes after all business in the bathroom is complete). Two year olds with new siblings require a lot of mommy time & attention.
3. Daily hygiene
4. Regular meals or warm meals
Having 2 kids is HARD (when one is a toddler & the other is tiny), so, so challenging....80% of the time, it feels like drowning, exhaustive treading water--you're so tired but you can't break or you'll just drift downward toward your demise; it's really hard....
One kid is nothing really, when you think it's hard times...think again....good luck with yours.
It's all so, so worth it though....I wouldn't change anything...
