The double stroller getting gate checked for the plane and then all over Disney about did him in. <BR/><BR/>11 months and the beach is what amazes me. I took the 1st four all the time as babies, these last two, no way, I just have stayed home until they are bigger. <BR/><BR/>Love to pop in and read how God has graced you with such beautiful children, patience beyond human understanding, and deep rooted love for motherhood.

Not a bad idea, though!<BR/> <BR/>We also did formula in pitchers - and were going through 1g of milk a day. It got to the point where we considered buying a cow.

It's like people are trying to figure out how old each child could be and if mathmatically it's possible that there's not at least one set of twins amongst the group. Foster and Elizabeth look so much alike that people often mistake them for twins. I love the "Are they ma-ternal or pa-ternal twins?" question. "Well...they're a little of both," is how I usually answer that one. And don't you love how everyone feels like they need to stop and ask you questions about the kids-especially at the tail end of the grocery store trip when EVERYBODY is has had it anyway? Or when people, bless their hearts :), feel like they want/need to be helpful in public, but all it really does is slow the whole process down. (b/c they then want to know names/ages/I try to get everyone to say hello/they ask about twins/the boys' swords/etc, etc, etc,.) I think you articulated it the best when you said that it's so normal for us, we don't think about having so many kiddos around as odd. Oh-how do you buy diapers wholesale? We don't really need that many anymore, but what a great idea. And I never really counted how many strollers we have either-4 and we've gotten rid of one of them.<BR/>AmyMatt and Amy Snowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00166919418863405564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14642592.post-1155432214962130542006-08-12T21:23:00.000-04:002006-08-12T21:23:00.000-04:00That is some good reading there!!

I can't imagine the questions that you must get out in public with 3...just with my 2 it's SO annoying. <BR/><BR/>By the way, even with my singleton daughter I kept track of every BM and wet diaper b/c she was so constipated too. It's like my life revolved around her bodily functions. It actually DID for about 3 1/2 years until she finally "regulated" herself. <BR/><BR/>Cute post.

The highchairs, pack & plays, cans of formula, strollers, bouncy seats were all too much for us to lso manage to pack clothing...so we took a Uhaul and pronounced ourselves the Grizzwolds!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03903375700915031290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14642592.post-1155427094331683362006-08-12T19:58:00.000-04:002006-08-12T19:58:00.000-04:00I love the part about knowing a dozen others with ...I love the part about knowing a dozen others with triplets or quads!

You record every BM, wet diaper and oz. of milk consumed for the first 6 months of your children's lives in a 3 ring binder--so that when the Dr. asks you can remember which baby is doing what. One of my children (to remain anonymous) even had such terrible constipation that we would rate their BMs with a star system as to whether it was a "good one" or not....Seriously!

I know it must be hectic but I also know it must be AWESOME. Isnt it funny how I mentioned in my post I didnt know how you would school shop for 3, and you did at Sams the very day???? How funny!!
