If one is sleeping and the other isn't that's a good time for us, or if they're playing in different rooms I take advantage of that, but most of the time I'll take the time to focus on one of them for a little bit even when they're in the same room. That really only works if they're really focused on what they're doing. All that being said, they each get time with me maybe twice a week if we're lucky and it's never a big one-on-one trip somewhere together. Good luck! And don't worry about what "other good moms" do because you do your own great things!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5051258436941012775.post-55437724030005928202012-03-22T23:07:03.055-07:002012-03-22T23:07:03.055-07:00"...ways to have one-on-one time even while y..."...ways to have one-on-one time even while you are all together."

This will be a learning process for me, but I suspect she's right.<br /><br />Great post- I'm glad to have found you :)Our Muddy Bootshttp://www.ourmuddyboots.comnoreply@blogger.com
