Love. Moments. Happiness.: Two is a game changer

I have two beautiful girls and as much as I adore them, sometimes they're very challenging. I think threenager is worse than terrible two. Skye, a three year old, is very smart and one strong minded kid, I tell ya. She doesn't take no as an answer and she always finds her way to get what she wants. On the other hand, Summer, the 10 week old is very mellow, yet she loves to be held. Some days I just spend almost the whole time either on the couch or in bed, holding and cuddling her. My laundry will take days to be done, and I have other million things to do, yet I enjoy this phase since they're growing up too fast and I will definitely miss these moments.

For some people three is a game changer, but for me it's two. Just because we don't have any family here who can give us extra help. Sean's family live in Hawaii and mine are in Indonesia. Fortunately, as a second time parent, I have more experience and it's so much easier since Summer is a great sleeper and she barely cries. Speaking of having more experience with the baby, now I know which items that are essentials versus the ones that I can live without. These 5 items are my life savers with Summer and I wish I had these with Skye.
