Make no mistake of it - I love both of my children and I think its awesome to have two little boys so close together (20 months and 6 months). Its fun to think that when my oldest, Vinny, thinks back to his childhood he will likely only remember having a little brother. […]
That took way too long

Simple things - at least things that should be simple - take far more time when you have 2 kids. For example - the post previous to this one too 4+ hours to complete from start to finish because of all the interruptions. What normally would take maybe 15 minutes has been turned […]
