Forgot about gettting ready

When I went over to my mom's house the other day, she had asked me what I thought off having two kids and if it is as hard as I thought it was going to be?  I had to sit there and think for a second because nobody had really asked me that before. However, I do recall a few people telling me that I was in for a ride because it was a lot harder. With that said I love having two kids, but what did I expect was more of the question. 


To be honest I don't think I ever gave it much thought.  I mean I knew that things would change for Ryan and I, but I didn't think it would be this drastic situation.  Yeah sure we would no longer experience a quiet house when Maddie was gone at her dads and there wouldn't be anymore stopping at the casino on the way home, but I was prepared for that. 

What seems to have slipped my mind is how FREAKING long it takes to get myself and two girls ready.  You have Maddie that thinks she needs a 20 minute shower and then wants to have a 10 minute debate about the clothes that she is gonna wear for the day.  Then there is Myleigh that seems to get hungry right about the time that we are suppose to be leaving, and last but not least you have Ryan that is bitching, and always amazed at how long it takes our family to get out the door.  Somehow we manage to get wherever we are going at a decent time.  Don't ask me how this slipped my mind, but somehow it did. And I realize that this situation is only going to get worse as both my girls get older.
