Today at the playground I met a grandmother who told me she had 4, ages 3 and under: the 3 year old, a set of 1 year old twins, and a newborn. It was such a relief to realize things actually could be harder. I asked how she got through it. She thought for a moment and then said she had no idea - it was all a blur.
And somewhere between dragging the 3 of them to the doctor's office for Isis's check up, coming home and trying to feed all 3 of them at once, and then wondering at 8:30pm if I should get something to eat myself, I realized that she is 100% right. Later in life I may have no clear memory of this time period. And that may not be a bad thing.
Cynicism aside, each of our three kids is awesome. Here are long overdue photos of each of them.
Isis. Now 1 month.
Xena. Almost 18 months.
Genghis. Just turned 3.

Your children are all beautiful! My Mom had 4 kids under the age of 5. She did the best she could and we had a great time together. We still have a great time together. But we all have memories of those times that my Mom didn't remember at all! :)
You are an amazing mom!! Your three littles are very loved. Cute pictures, I can't wait to see your family again (hopefully soon).
I love these pictures. I wish I was there to come play with them. Remember you are awesome. From me.
