Awwwww, the sleep thing. Now I remember why I didn’t have more babies. I still feel good and guilty 12 years later about leaving my gal all scared in her room. She used to fall asleep standing up with her arms draped over the crib railing and then wake up because she plopped down onto the mattress. So she never stayed asleep because the falling down always woke her up. But you have to get sleep somehow.

Oh now wait just a cotton pickin’ minute here – I DID warn you!!!!!! Dad gum it…now I’m going to have to look through all your posts and comments so I can find that place where I said something along the lines of “Two kids is four times the work and ten times the laundry.”

Of course, my warning probably wasn’t much good seeing as Dr. O’C was already pregnant when I said it…

Anyway, back to reading this post. I only got through the first sentence before I had to comment.

I’ve heard it’s ten times, but my kid is an only child, so I wouldn’t know. Congrats on the gorgeous baby.

NATUI – I don’t know about willing.

Jan – I’m intentionally blocking out what’s going to happen when they become teens…

Allie – I’m not sure that’s peek-a-boo. I think it’s more ‘let’s smother Not Max and see what happens’.

Jacob – I’m not interested in the experiment. Two is plenty!

NS – Last night he made it through without waking, so I think we’ve done it.

Ginny – The low grade terror, that’s a whole different kettle of fish.

Chris – That side-by-side photo is a good idea! And, I think that we’re going to ship Boy Z off to his Nana’s house tomorrow night. Just for a bit of peace. She’s my hero.

April – We’ve just started putting Boy Z in his room for a couple of minutes when he does something dangerous or incredibly annoying. It definitely hurts me.

Chris – We thought about the toddler bed, but now that we’ve got it sorted I’m glad we didn’t. Less money spent.

TUB – Jesus! That’s what I needed to hear! Thanks. A lot.

atimetorend – That’s a polynomial that I hope I never have a reason to solve.

Congrats on the UGA win…have been dealing with flooding this week and not reading or writing much.
As for the babies, at least they’re not sharing a room.

I have a friend with four kids – 3 boys and 1 girl. She – and other people I know with 3+ spawn – *say* the math goes something like this: 2 is 4 times harder than 1. But 3 is only twice as hard as 1 and at four is somehow goes back to being as easy as one.

Personally, I think they’re on crack.

Either that, or they are trying to trick the rest of us into joining them in their insanity.

Not me. My math is more like 1 boy child + 1 boy child = 1 operation = Happy, happy, mommy.

Hang in there dude. I’m not gonna lie to you. The first year is murder. But, on the bright side, the sleep deprivation dulls the memory of it all later. (Hence the crazies who keep on breeding).

I tend to find that the actual number of children in one’s home is completely dependent upon the age, amount of sleep the child has had, and the amount of sugar the child has ingested.

So, yeah, a houseful of three toddlers feels like a pre-school of 20.
