if i were the type of person...

...who loved runny-nosed kids and snot-smeared cheeks
...who adored hacking, productive coughs
...who thrived on spontaneous vocal eruptions of tantrum-atic emotion
...who lived to see her infant cry crocodile tears of hurt and frustration
...who enjoyed singlehandedly keeping the tylenol infant drops industry afloat
...who wanted more of clingy, needy children

...then i'd be having the perfect day.

This sounds vaguely like your experiences last winter, with an additional child. Oh, for spring! My sympathies are with you.

Good luck Brit - we're in the same boat. We try to keep the motrin and bigger kid tylenol in business too. :)Leave the housework for another day and snuggle up with the kids to watch a movie. Take care!
