They can play with each other until YOU go get them and this will keep the toys and keys out of the toilet! Just remember that we still only have a 2 bathroom house, down from three. In addition to the Matchbox cars we finally figured out that the entire magnetic alphabet is down in the pipes too in a big giant clump. Keep them contained!!!!! <BR/><BR/>Don't let poor Charlie run out of coffee either!!! Oh, and start drinking coffee too STAT!!!Michele Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15061520456909635254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-37100376531717657222007-04-06T15:44:00.000-05:002007-04-06T15:44:00.000-05:00Jen,Everytime I come to your blog and read it make...Jen,<BR/><BR/>Everytime I come to your blog and read it makes me chuckle.....you (and Charlie) have such a sense of humor about you and are so calm about anything. It also makes me realize that I can handle 2, 2 year olds and a newborn coming soon!! Thank you so much for putting everything into perspective and making me realize what it's all about!! :)<BR/><BR/>Susan<BR/>Finley and Jude<BR/>25 months<BR/>Baby Avah coming very, very soon!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-25135120528664725542007-04-06T14:45:00.000-05:002007-04-06T14:45:00.000-05:00You are so funny!

Mrs. Dunnigan says she remembers me putting on a house dress and nurses shoes and just going all day. I do not remember a lot of what happened when you guys were little, but I do Know--I just jumped in my clothes and showered at night. <BR/>We should have the coffee delivered in a big Keg so Charlie would never run out. <BR/>I think the sitter idea is great? Have you thought about asking at church for someone to help you? <BR/>I am so glad you are enjoying it all. It is a lot of fun and you will have great memories. <BR/>Love,<BR/>MOMAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-30193379177061237872007-04-06T11:56:00.000-05:002007-04-06T11:56:00.000-05:00((((hugs)))) I can only imagine the exhaustion.AND...((((hugs)))) I can only imagine the exhaustion.<BR/><BR/>AND I can totally empathize with Charlie's need for coffee.Joy Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746570281283136391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-74714197248235165542007-04-06T04:48:00.000-05:002007-04-06T04:48:00.000-05:00You're not ever tempted to put the kids into some ...You're not ever tempted to put the kids into some kind of daycare/kindergarten or get a nanny for 1-2 mornings a week? This would give you both just a bit of a buffer as far as work is concerned and would be an absolute blessing for you Jenna once this baby arrives.<BR/>I have a (just)3yr old, and an 18month old and am 8 months pregnant. Currently doing the whole "job share/looking after kids share" thing with my husband (pretty similar to you, but one kid less) and have just started the 3 yr old in 2 half days of kindergarten and it has been great! The 18month old has a dependable 2hr sleep in the day, giving whoever is at home a break on the days the 3yr old (who has given up her naps) is not there. Plus we still have our babysitter come in on two mornings. Pretty inexpensive really for the huge benefit it gives us.<BR/>I feel so tired- I too am in bed by 8pm most nights. Just reading your blog makes me even more tired. It is fun, but it is true about kids being most adorable while asleep!<BR/>Oh yes, we have door handles that are so high our 3 yr old can't reach them, so she actually has to knock on her door in the morning to be let out. No free roaming for her.<BR/>RebeccaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-68512107242683166752007-04-06T01:03:00.000-05:002007-04-06T01:03:00.000-05:00I'm with Susan on that business idea.

I don't know how you cope, darling, I really don't! Am I supposed to be encouraging? I wish I could be, but it's just one thing after another for you, isn't it?
