The less burnt out and tired you are, the better for them. So take breaks when you need to! They will also learn from you what it means to be a woman, so keep that in mind when you find yourself giving to the point of neglecting your own needs. Not to make you more neurotic though...I TOTALLY hear where you are. The bottom line is to remember that you are doing an AMAZING job. None of us are perfect moms. Just try to strike the best balance you can. As long as they have unconditional love from their parents they'll turn out great!wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17752848841857684109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6902845350042327827.post-4095377017961974552012-03-21T22:00:57.505-04:002012-03-21T22:00:57.505-04:00That works for me!

Last night I went to the store...wasn't even gone an hour, and I felt guilty. What added to it was when I got home, Cory was putting Lilli to bed. I felt like I didn't get to see her much yesterday evening and this wave of extra guilt washed over me. Oy Vey! It's tough. But rest assured, we all know we do the best we can!Mirjoihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13766076607952778119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6902845350042327827.post-79902681414523725612012-03-15T18:54:59.785-04:002012-03-15T18:54:59.785-04:00I think the fact that there are so many books abou...I think the fact that there are so many books about helping babies to nap is significant!

I think you can rest assured that the "perfect parent" type just doesn't exist. We're all imperfect parents, and have been since the dawn of man. Anyone who claims that they're doing all the things they "should" be doing is a damn dirty liar...in my opinion.<br /><br />You lasted much longer than we did with the breast-feeding. I'm sure they'll work just fine on the formula (although I must agree...it is really stinking expensive). Your little ladies are going to be just great, even with split attention, formula, and any number of bruises.Tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10690693496516858853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6902845350042327827.post-55313363363289623372012-03-11T07:09:31.747-04:002012-03-11T07:09:31.747-04:00their smiles are soooo adorable!their smiles are soooo adorable!Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10461407022452937516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6902845350042327827.post-85518611030822631412012-03-10T16:57:18.530-05:002012-03-10T16:57:18.530-05:00You were out by yourself!!!!

I'm so excited to read your upcoming posts! <br /><br />I laughed out loud when you said "time suck". So true...the ULTIMATE time suck and the very best kind. I had a friend the other day say when I was describing a really hard day we had lately that I probably wonder "what have I done" (she has no kids) and I was like, "NO, NEVER!! Even in my very worst most horribly sleep deprived moments have I EVER wanted my life before Oliver back, not for a second." Until you have your own, it's just hard to fathom that.

I think that is great. I was wondering if you have ever heard of a company called SallyeAnder Soaps. They make an all natural handmade soap that does not include chemicals or toxins making it safe for babies. And with a new born in your family that is important. My wife and I have been using their soaps for almost 3 years now after our neighbor recommended their soaps to us. Here is their website if you wanted to check them out. www.sallyeander.com. Their Calendula & Chamomile Shampoo Bar is amazing especially for craddle cap with babies.Tyler Belawskenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6902845350042327827.post-19828951982964673642011-09-14T03:29:26.769-04:002011-09-14T03:29:26.769-04:00So much happening and going on all at once, hang i...So much happening and going on all at once, hang in there.4little1shttp://www.4little1s.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6902845350042327827.post-90085922742327242582011-09-13T03:51:21.284-04:002011-09-13T03:51:21.284-04:00It sounds like your supply is great but my best tr...It sounds like your supply is great but my best trick for that (which I wish I had discovered earlier!!) is malt flavor Ovaltine. That combined with homemade steel-cut oatmeal gave me a HUGE supply boost.<br /><br />It's so so tough to have a new baby, I can't imagine 2. It makes it kind of necessary to focus just on the baby/ies so I can see how hard packing and moving might be.

I pray that God will give you strength, endurance, joy, and a sense of humor along the way through this difficult time. Be kind to yourself. Do what you have the strength to do trust God for the rest. There is a difference between excellence and perfectionism.<br /><br />Blessings,<br /><br />Ginny<br />http://mybestbabybargains.comGinny Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06644102902552273254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6902845350042327827.post-75629080636565437912011-09-08T17:55:05.147-04:002011-09-08T17:55:05.147-04:00Man, so much going on it must be difficult.
