Enjoy it. Every little moment you can. Do not expect perfection. I have a 2 year old and a 2 month old. It gets really hard for me, mainly because of my 2 year old but I've found if I just let go and have fun with my 2 year old (while still enforcing rules) it's a lot more fun and easier for both of us. Set aside time during the day to stress about things YOU are worried about so they don't cloud your judgement when it comes to your kids. Just remember it's not gonna last forever.

It seems that you are in a busy spot right now, and I can understand why you’re feeling overwhelmed. As a mom of four boys, I know from experience that It’s not easy keeping up with the demands of little ones.There aren’t any easy answers, but I think you may enjoy these articles “Parenting: Parenting Roles -- Motherhood” http://bit.ly/IERP4e that I came across while working with Focus on the Family. If this doesn’t fully addressed the situation at hand, it might be a good idea to speak with one of their counselors, at no cost to you. Know that I'm praying for you and your family. Grace and peace to you.

Sit on the couch and take a deep breath, it will get better. Does your 19 month old go to day care at all? Do you have family that could watch bub or the toddler for an hour or maybe two once a week, just so you can have time out? Forget the housework, as long as the kids have a roof over there head, food in there bellies and a nice warm bed then the rest will wait. I had a 23 month old and a newborn and now i will have a 4, 2 and newborn so it can be done, you just have to relax and go with the flow. Good luck.
