My house seems to be a circus right now.
We've got baby Alison in one ring, looking cute, pooping on her onesies, requesting food as she pleases, and requesting to be held as often as possible.
We've got big brother Zack in another ring. He too is looking cute, requesting fishes and pancakes as he pleases, and requesting that we "put her down" from time to time. In the times where little A is requesting food, and therefore mama is occupied, Zack entertains himself by watching PBS kids, scaling the toy shelf, and dumping out any cup, or dog bowl full of water that he can find. When he's not doing any of the above, he's washing his hands. And using half the soap dispenser in one trip to the bathroom to wash up. Foaming hand soap up to his armpits...no need for a bath that day, I suppose!
In yet another ring we've got Walter. He too is requesting food as he pleases, and doing his best to sneak Zack's fish from him. And snoring.
Then there's me, the ringmaster. Juggling. And then James comes home from work and we juggle together. Having Zack surely did throw us off...and adding another one to the mix has been slightly chaotic. Ok, absolutely chaotic. But totally worth it.
