Finding time for myself! I know that sounds totally selfish but i would love to have a shower without DS beaming at me from the corner and losing his patience halfway through and me having to sing and dance while frantically de-sudsing. Tiny dreams. But thats it! DS is a pretty sweet baby and hes still too young to get into any shinanegans.

Getting up early in the mornings. Even on weekends! Why don't kids come programmed to know that weekends are for sleeping in?

I would not call it struggles as such more like challengers & mine are kids fighting & arguing & talking back...it seams that 3 children never agree on things & it takes longer for them to get turns with things....days like this I think back to how much easier things were when I only had 1...& then 2

Balance - trying to do right by my husband, my kids, my job, and myself. Although give it a year and I think I'll be much better - house will be standing perfectly straight again (yay!), I will either have a job or won't (so I'll either feel more secure in my job, or will be a SAHM), and my kids will be a bit older and we'll be able to do more things together when Dh is away (atm it's hard to juggle 2 kids with a lot of activities by myself).
