Consistency is hard.

    I love it when we get through a week or two where we go to the park, eat healthy dinners together, get all the hair brushed and get all the dishes cleaned in the same day, and limit ourselves to one movie a day.
    That feels great.

    It's lasted for 2 months before! BUT, there is always one day where four cups get left in the sink. A baby gets sick so we watch Peep all day and eat chicken soup. Maybe it's stormy or 6 degrees outside so we don't end up at the park. It seems like all it takes is one misstep and then we have bored, naked babies watching T.V all day with messy hair, refusing all forms of dinner and staying up in bed until midnight.
    It really bothers me that this phase will last longer than our "put-together" phase.

    I'm really trying to figure out what we do differently when things are going well, but I don't know.

    Hopefully, someday, we'll get it figured out and our "put-together" phase will last longer than anything else.
