Yesterday I did some babysitting for some friends. I had little Mallory, who is one month older than Ellie, from 8:00am to 3:30pm while her mom substituted at the elementary school. Then Makayla's friend, Laney, came over from 2:30 to 4:00pm. It was like having 2 sets of twins. Let me just say, there was a little bit of craziness happening at my house.
Having 2 babies wasn't nearly as hard as I imagined it would be. And then I tried to go somewhere. Messing with 3 car seats and 3 kids totally kicked my butt. I was so exhausted just taking Makayla to preschool. I seriously don't know how anyone manages 3 children or more. You are all my heroes.
Needless to say, negotiations for another baby have come to a complete halt!

3 is scary!
Ok so you have to check out our friend Eli Mccann's blog. It made me laugh out loud several times!

Thanks Jodi! Kasey and I were just talking about him this week. I can't wait to read his blog. I need a good laugh today.
Aww c'mon 3 isn't so bad :) Costco is the best for 3 or more, they have roomy carts
No addition anytime soon then? Oh come on, j/k I too wonder sometimes how people do it with more than 2 you run out of arms!
Here's what you do with 3. Because you don't have three hands to hold each child, you stay home! When Lizzie was born, I quit going to the store unless dad was home to tend. But then, our first three were much closer in age than yours. Katie was barely 3 and Sarah was barely 2 when Lizzie was born. Then, you came alone 21 months later and Charlie 23 months after that! It's totally doable. I survived! :)
Love you!
Mom
