10 things that having children has taught me

♥ That my heart can never run out of Love

♥ That I work best under pressure

♥ That a child's Love is more valuable than anything money can buy

♥ That a Suburban really is not that big of a vehicle after all

♥ And $150 a week in groceries is nothing

♥ That patience is virtue

♥ That you can laugh at almost everything that you can cry about

♥ That we as humans have such a profound influence on each other

♥ To understand my own Mother so much better

♥ That I am so Blessed

technical difficulties...

Apologies. My computer got a virus and I have been trying to get it all cleaned up for the past couple of days. We had a really fun weekend, I will post pictures soon. Update on M.A.C - the regional called me today to let me know that they are interested and are waiting for her boss to schedule my third and final interview which will be a phone interview:) So Excited!!! Keep fingers crossed and prayers flowing! Anyway, here are the last two of the 100th post, sorry to drag it out!

10 Confessions of your average Triplet Mommy

• I yell way too much.

• I feel uneasy when my kids don't match.

• I sometimes wish I had my very own apartment across the street that I could keep clean & decorated, where I could run and hide for moments of peace and quiet.

• If people just "drop by" and my house is a mess, I pretend I'm not home.

• Having children has really made me a better person.

• They don't always get a bath every day.

• Neither do I.

• I dose off during cartoon time in the morning.

• If my Husband said "let's have more" I would probably wouldn't be able to resist.

10 reasons I adore my husband

♥ He makes me laugh EVERY DAY.

♥ He's a lot like my own Father who I highly respect and admire.

♥ He's very sexy.

♥ He's ambitious & never stops thinking, and he is the hardest working man I know.

♥ He's loyal, thoughtful, and generous.

♥ He's a God fearing Man.

♥ He's a wonderful Father.

♥ He understands me.

♥ He Loves my family like they were his own.

♥ He can dance.

and there are a few more things i really like about him too.......

My 10 Biggest Fears

• God. Not the type of fear you might imagine. More of a fear of disappointment or shortcoming. I am constantly trying to put my thoughts, feelings, and actions into perspective and live more through his eyes.

• Death. No matter how secure I feel in my relationship with God, I am not comfortable with death. I am very attached to the "physical". I want to be right here in the flesh with my children...forever!

• Loosing a Loved one. Any of them.

• Illness. This should be my biggest fear being that I neglect my health. It is pretty close to last on my list of priorities, I need to get that in check!

• Failing as a parent.
Knowing that these three will most likely be my only three, it is scary to think that if I make a mistake in parenting, they will all feel the pain. Most parents get to improve with every child. I try and not let the chaos and stress in our lives take away from this wonderful and unique experience that we have been given.

• Balloons Popping. HATE IT.

• Bee's, Wasp's, or anything else that fly's and stings. I can run really fast when it comes to getting away from a bee.

• The filter at the bottom of the pool.

• Roller Coasters.

• Swimming in the dark.

10 things all about me

♥ I am a God fearing Woman.

♥ I am staring 30 dead in the eye.

♥ I never believed I would get to be a Mommy, but always wished to.

♥ I Love to eat.

♥ I am a girly girl...to the MAX

♥ I call my Mom at least once a day, she is my Hero.

♥ I secretley fantasize about living on the beach in jamaica and running a jet ski business.

♥ I am half Caucasian, half Mexican, my husband is a British Jamaican, and My kids are all mixed up.

10 "I would rather's"

♥ I would rather endure every challenge that comes with being a Parent of Multiples than to live one day without my children.

♥ I would rather be happy, healthy, and loved than be rich, famous, and beautiful.

♥ I would rather drink coffee than tea.

♥ I would rather have a hand full of great friends, than tons of acquaintances.

♥ I would rather see the ocean than the mountains, and I would rather be surrounded by the desert than lush green trees.

♥ I would rather be at home with my family gathered around lounging on the sofa, than out on the town.

♥ I would rather stay up late at night than wake up early in the morning.

♥ I would rather write an email than talk on the phone.

♥ I would rather have 1 thousand dollar handbag than 20 cheap ones...my poor Husband;)

100th post series

Hello Hello!

Well, I figured I would follow the 100th post celebration that I have seen many of you do. It's fun & entertaining, and gives us a better sense of who each other are. So here is the first of 10 posts in honor of the 100th. Enjoy!

10 things I could not live without as a Mother of 3 toddlers

♥ An emergency poop party prevention and clean-up kit which includes:

duct tape
tight fitting onesies
and a little green machine

♥ Zoo Pals paper plates, plastic utensils, and a big stash of snack size Ziploc bags. Not so environmentally responsible, but I think Mom's with two or more children are of the hook on that one.

♥ Ikea highchairs. Although we are almost out of the highchair stage, these were some very well kept secrets. They are simple, easy to clean, and stack in to a nice neat little corner.

♥ Nearly illegal doses of caffeine.

♥ A Costco membership and an extra freezer(I am still working on the latter).

♥ A Choo Choo wagon. What did I do without this brilliant little invention for the first 2 years of my triplets life?

♥ A stash of chapsticks and candy bracelets. These can be a real lifesaver in airplanes, Doctor's offices, and shopping malls .

♥ A Petsmart nearby to substitute for the Zoo.

♥ Spanx...the lady who perfected these things is my hero! I carried almost 17lbs of baby, enough said.

♥ A posse of Momma Friends in Blog Land.
