I love my children. The last two weeks it's seemed like Ada will only nap in my arms (not even the baby carrier) which means that I get to choose between getting things done during Caleb's nap and after he's in bed but feeling bad because she's upset and sitting there cuddling her for 6 hours a day. I love baby snuggles but sometimes I just need to be able to put away the dishes or laundry, or even just knit. To do something that isn't because someone else needs me.
I keep telling myself it's just a phase, but really I wish I could spread out the baby snuggles over the next decade and have a little more time where they'll play on their own now.
