{breathing}

Forget counting to 10.  

How about to 62?  

Plus some breathing exercises.  

Do you think they offer Lamaze classes for people with 2 year olds? (Specifically 2 year olds that won't stay in bed, are going through a hitting phase, and one in particular that is as big as his 5 year old sisters?) Isn't that where you learn to "breathe" through labor?  I wouldn't know from personal experience, because I actually never took any kind of class, but that's the rumor going around.

Learning to breathe deeply and relax while under great stress in a special class would be beneficial to not just expectant mothers, don't you think? Child labor lasts all of what, 24 hours at the most? (not sayin' it's not hard--I've been there...)  But they are going to be two for another 300 days, and since I'm pretty sure I'm laboring most of the time with them, so it's seems only fair.

Because really, my husband's suggestion of eBay probably isn't going to work out. 

He was kidding, of course.  

Mostly.

P.S.  Did I tell you how cute they are?

I totally agree! Two is a hard age. So much fun but oh so exhausting!!!

Two is definitely hard, but I KNOW you can do it. Hang in there--one day they will be 13 and THEN THE FUN REALLY BEGINS ; )

Amen! I've told my family this before, I find myself having to do lamaze breaths now! Seriously, I have loaded my kids into the car, strapped them all nicely in, and started driving down the street, only to realize I am focusing on breathing...in and out, in and out...just to try to get my heart from racing.

SO know how you feel! I've taken to strapping her down in her high chair for somewhat long periods of time. :) We'll survive, right??

If you find a class sign us both up ASAP! And if that does not work the whole ebay idea really makes me laugh.

and not to burst your bubble of only 300 more days of 2, I can remember it does last through the 3's too! Call if you need a break, I have lots of mornings free now!

I giggled to myself a couple weeks ago when I heard your husband trying to pawn off the boys to the 20 year olds in his group at work.
