What to do?

I came across an interesting website. It's that of Rachel Cornell - Professional Nagger. If her services weren't so out of my budget I might try it. But then again I'm not sure how that would actually work since despite what I may want to or need to do, the kiddos almost always come first. Josie's currently cutting 4 or 5 teeth (all top) & fighting a nasty cold, Wesley's in the "I'm scared of everything" stage which mean he wants me to hold him if it even looks like I'm available (and sometimes when I'm not), & Carlise wants to hold onto my arm, hand, or finger whenever she wants comfort. So getting stuff done hasn't really been happening.

But I need to be getting projects checked off my lists and they've all taken too long as it is so I can't put them off until the kids get more independent. Any tips?

work after bedtime. that's all i've got.

that is BY FAR the only time that i get things done around here. but, then i end up sacrificing sleep for myself... which means that i don't have the energy to do what i need to do... which means that things still don't get done. get what i mean?

hang in there. you and i are in the same boat, i'm afraid. love you.

Wish I had a suggestion... or two or three! But alas, I do not. But I do know that you are being an amazing mom and that your kids will always know they are a priority :). And that is soooo important.

i agree with stacy,i go thru the same stuff. stay up late and work or get leighann or some other family member to help watch kids while you do your stuff.

I have the same problem. Both twins want to be held all the time. It's impossible to do anything without taking multiple breaks to read them a book, go "see something," or just hold one on each hip.
