11ish weeks in

It's calming down.  I have a lot of time to think while feeding Allison but not much time at all for anything else.  Except watching tv or reading.  I just feel really neglectful of my blog, but that's better than being neglectful of my children. HAHAHA.  I really want to put a picture up but none are loaded.  Allison actually looks almost exactly like Peter, but with a darker skin tone. 

We are waiting for the pool to warm up so we can go out, it's going to be 88 today. I haaate taking them outside because it's a goat rodeo every time.  Three is absolutely a tipping point.

We won( lost) the acid reflux lottery and Allie has it.  Not at bad as Peter did, but we are still surfing a tide of vomit and she hates to lay down.  She's been on zantac for a week and it is improving things.

While it is calming down( showering every other day! Meals that are not frozen! The house is slightly less disastrous!) I am still constantly busy.  It's literally constant.  I think my days are either 24 hours of childcare( if you choose to count while she is in our bed asleep) or maybe 20 hours.  I am getting about four hours of sleep a night, between nursing and night waking and Allison still having her nights and days reversed and Peter being up and ready to go at 6 a.m. ( Peter of the future, WHY?)

It's awesome but way crazy.  WAY CRAZY.  The shit is hitting the fan so TTFN.

It sounds exhausting! I can only imagine how hard it is getting out with three. When I think about trying to get out with V and the twins I about break out in a rash, and they're not even here yet! I hope things continue to settle for you all. You sound like you're doing really great considering!

First, I think it's awesome you have 2 boys and a girl and I have two girls and a boy.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS to 3 being the tipping point!!! Michael is finally a year and I just started feeling sane again. I think being outnumbered means that someone is almost always unhappy/crying and that took a lot of time to get used to.

I'm sorry she has reflux!! That makes sleep so much harder :-/

And yes! A goat rodeo! ha ha
