www.blah.com.	IN	A	123.123.123.1
www2.blah.com.	IN	A	145.145.145.1

You can give them both the same IP address, and then they
will be used alternatively. I'd suggest you get a copy of the
O'Reilly book on DNS and BIND, and maybe a copy of the red
and blue sysadmin books - don't mess with DNS unless you have
a good idea of what is going on !
