My kids are 1.5 and 3.5 and are super crazy! Unfortunately, they're in daycare for LONG days (we're working on trying to reduce the time) because DH and I have long commutes. We've been plagued with tons of jealousy, not only from the older one but now from the younger one as well. If he sees me holding his sister or paying attention to her, he'll run over immediately and beg to be held. Recently he's started trying to shove her out of my lap, saying no, no, no.
Anyone with experience have advice how to handle double jealousy? Or just in general re: parenting two little ones? DH and I have come to realize how much more enjoyable our kids are when they're separated b/c we don't have to deal with the jealousy, toy snatching, hitting, and biting. There are some parents who look serene and peaceful when they have 2 or more, while DH and I feel like we're drowning!
