When there's three ...

Here's some silly stuff I've noticed about me now that there's three kiddos to look after ...
- Messy faces remain messy. I've heard myself say, "Lick the corner of your mouth," and demonstrated it instead of running for a washcloth.
- If a random piece of something is on the floor, it might just land in the garbage instead of me keeping track of all random pieces of somethings.
- The need to do laundry does seem to come more often, as many moms warned me. Using cloth dipes makes it even worse.
- I don't know what to do first when all three are down for their naps simultaneously and feel very unproductive.
- Spot cleaning happens more than real cleaning. A wipe is a good cleaning product, right?
- I forget important stuff to take with us when we leave the house ... like the precious pacifier! I wish I'd forget the big boys' stuff since they can deal with it.
- Bubble bath works to clean big boys when a baby is crying and I'm doing bedtimes alone. Who needs to really scrub? And forget the hair ...
- I'm amazed at how far my hand can stretch to find and insert a displaced pacifer while still driving.
- My response to Zach's "I need you" is often, "You can do it. Just try," followed by a healthy dose of reinforcement when he gets his pants pulled up by himself.
- I look forward to going to Walmart alone at 6 AM -- am I crazy? I must be.
- Um, a baby needs a bath just once a week, right? That's the reason they always smell good -- God knew we'd have more than one kid.
