The chaos called mommyhood

What a transition it is from one child to two! Holy moly! Maia is nearly 3 months old now, and I have mentally blogged about a hundred times since her arrival, but finding time to put the words into print is another story. We have been fighting acid reflux as we did with Zayne, but this time around, it seems more intense. Medicine isn't helping, and she seems very uncomfortable. I have had lots of advice on home remedies, and am working my way thru them. Something has to help! Besides being a spitty baby, Maia is wonderful! She's happy, with lots of smiles. She loves her big brother and staring at the ceiling fan and pictures on the wall. Zayne has taken to her as well. He's always in her personal space! He's full of loves for her, and he's very attentive to her needs (or what he thinks she needs!). He's quick with the bottle or pacifier, and is ready with a rattle or stuffed toy for her when she starts to cry. I don't know how many times I've heard him tell her that she's pretty. I'm so proud of him! I'm struggling with dividing my time between the two kids tho. I know I'm being too hard on myself, but I feel like I'm neglecting Zayne since Maia has arrived. We play as much as we can, and he doesn't seem to mind sharing me with sister, but I miss our all day long play sessions. I feel like I'm rushing everything with him, because it seems like every time he and I are doing something, then sister needs me and he gets put on the back burner. Like I said, I know I'm being hard on myself, but the struggle is real. I do have to brag on my boy, tho. We have been potty training for a few months now, and I finally think we're getting it! He's now in big boy unders except at night, and is rocking it! He still has a few accidents now and again, but my baby boy is growing up! *Happy and sad tears!* Life is wonderful, and I wouldn't trade the chaos for anything!
