I wanted to post up a story about how my days are now with 3 children, maybe 4 depending on the situation...lol! Now that I have 3 children I can never say it's calm! Since the day my daughter was born my 2nd child, Pita, would suddenly feel the urge to throw tantrums whenever he feels like he's not getting the attention that he wants...which is all the time. Well, anyways I'll start out with my mornings which by the way starts with the beautiful smell of wet, poopoo diapers...sounds exciting doesn't it?! After changing 2 kids from diapers (maybe 3 if my oldest decides to be lazy and wet himself instead of going to the bathroom)...it's feeding time!! My daughter is obviously easy to feed...just prepare a bottle for her and I'm done, but I do wish I could say the same for my 2 oldest. They can be really picky, sometimes demanding when it comes to what they want to eat. It's always a constant battle between me and them when I know what they would eat and they think they know better...but eventually I would give in and let them eat what they want. Anyways! So by the time they're done eating, I would give them a bath, brush their teeth and let them chill for a while, so I can take care of my daughter. One o' clock in the afternoon would come around and I'm preparing to make lunch or dinner (depends when I'm finished) and my son begins his tantrums...the crying, screaming, dropping to the floor and grabbing my legs to keep me still...yay!! But I don't pick him up automatically, I let him get his frustrations out til he's calmed a little then ask what he wants...usually it's because he's tired, but most of the time he just wants me to carry him. But throughout all that craziness I was still able to finish lunch/dinner.After that I would clean up the living room, kitchen and patio, because my oldest child likes to leave a trail of his mess everywhere he steps! Now... your probably wondering why I said "maybe 4", right? Well...it most definitely wasn't through labor! Hahaha...that would be painful. No, no he came the day we said "I DO". I basically treat him the same as my children...feed and clean up after him...the only difference is that he works 4 nights, 10 hour shifts and he's able to wipe himself...thank heavens for that!! Anyways! When I continue becoming a multi-tasking mother with 3 children, all under the age of 3 and a husband who thinks because he works he doesn't have to do anything...it makes me wonder how my mom does it with 9 children. Must have been pretty crazy!! Well I'm done with my story...til next time. C-ya!
Oh being a mom is so hard! I feel for ya but luckily I only have 2! Trust me, I know the feeling of being a "single mom" with a Kioa for a husband! Love ya! Let me know if you need any help, I know your parents are always willing to take your kids but I have a huge daycare that they can come and destroy...er play in!
