Parenting after 35

3 is exhausting!

I wish I had more time to respond to everyone's posts & get to know you all better! - but three under 3 1/2 is just.... busy! There is no such thing as quiet time anymore ; ) but I am loving it! 

Right now #'s 2 & 3 are napping (oh wait I hear baby waking up) & #1 is chilling watching a show (oh, wait he is now asking for something to eat).  But with house chores, school, speech, doctors appts.. I feel like the only time I get to sit down right now is to nurse. Forget time for me.. my life right now is my kids, but I have not forgotten who I am ; )

But, I would not trade this time for anything with my boys.. it is truly the most amazing time of my life!  My favorite thing is watching them grow up & learn from each other!  I am the happiest I have ever been!  Definitely the most exhausted I have ever been, but I know that in no time my youngest will be not this small anymore ; ( but there will be so many new adventures ahead of us!

Thanks for reading!

  • Please tell me how you put 3 to sleep at the same time.

    I have not tried 3 yet since the youngest one sleeps with us right now & only 2 nap during the day too.   Once he is sleeping thru the night we may put them all in the same room & see how that goes.  Around 3 months his bedtime should be 7:30 pm like the other boys ; )  At least I am hoping!  3 kids is really not all that bad.. the 2nd one was really easy & the third one is even easier - plus you realize it's okay if they cry.
