My Life Story with 4 kids
10/02/2008
I have to say thank you to everyone for all of your support. I have been having a really rough couple of past weeks. Everything has been going wrong. I have been so sick for the past few months, but haven’t been in to a Dr, now the girls are sick. I did take them in though. They all have viral infections and Alyssa and Katie have that plus ear infections. The Dr said it came from Lilly, when she was sick, probably catching it from school. So we are all sick now, luckily Kerry isn’t sick yet, lets keep our fingers crossed.
OK, i have to tell this sad story. Monday I put the girls down for their morning nap, i always change them before putting them down. Well I was so busy with things, i forgot Alyssa likes to take her diaper off. Well a big mistake. They didn’t want to take a nap, but i had things to do, so i let them talk to each other up stairs, that was a big mistake too! So after a about 10 min i went up there and was smelling the most awful thing ever, to my surprise Alyssa took her poop filled diaper off and threw it everywhere, I mean everywhere! I had so much fun cleaning that up, while they were all looking at me, laughing in their own ways! I never thought that could happen to me! But it did! Then everything from that point on was just getting worse. I got them dressed and brought them downstairs, i had to go pick up Lilly early from school to take them to the Dr. I was trying to pick up a little and i kicked a ball, trying to kick it into the playroom, boy that didn’t work, it ended up hitting my curtain rod just in the right place in the living room and hit it precisely in the right spot and took down the rod and somehow broke and snapped. Needless to say so did I…things just got worse from there! I was crying so hard I was laughing at all the things that were going wrong. I had to stop and take a min out.
While my time out I called aunt elayne. She is always there for me! She had some great words of wisdome! She always seems to calm me down and help me. She is also coming to my rescue! She is helping me this weekend. THANK YOU! I cant wait.
Then I also have my cousin Lea! What can I say about her, well what cant i say! She also is always here for me. She is my best friend. She goes to school full time and works part time, but some how she found a way to come over yesterday to help me clean up and take care of the girls. It happen to be the right day because I cant believe i actually forgot my anniversary with Kerry! Yes i have been so wound up with things, I forgot. Its been 5 years that we have been married, but can u believe its going to be 14 years that we are together. Dec. 27th this year! Kerry is the best father and husband anyone can ask for! We are so blessed to have each other and our 4 beautiful baby girls. So back to my story. Lea came to our rescue and helped with everything. After we got them to sleep she stayed here so Kerry and I could go out. We had a lovely dinner. And Kerry surprised me with a dozen beautiful roses. Thanks Kerry! Thanks Lea.
Also to my rescue are some great women i never even met. I belong to a wonderful moms of multiples group. I had posted some of my problems and stated I dont know what to do anymore, so these women wrote the best advice and help anyone could offer. They are all parents of multiples so they understand where I am coming from. Most of them offered to come and help me out and stay with me for a few days! What some wonderful women! If I lived close i would take them up on their offer! So thank you to all of you! We have to meet some day! Thanks, im doing better with all the support and help!

I just read your bad day!!! And can I just tell you I have those all the time. Being a mother of mulitples you hare going to have days where you think you can do it but then they do something so amazing you forget about all of that stuff. A few months ago the girls were in cribs in fact I think it was the beginning of summer and like you the girls were in their cribs and I had to clean up the house and walked by the room. It smelled like poop. I thought thats weird I know i emptied the diaper champ. Well!!!! I walked in and noticed pooped smeared from one end of the wall to the other end. And across the room all over the cribs. It took me 2hours to scrub it off. And while I was doing I cried the entire time. Now mind you my girls will be 3 soon so they knew what they were doing. I was so mad they sat in the tub while I cleaned. They never did it again. Now I can laugh and I wished I had taped it to show to their boyfriends later on!!!! Hang in there you were meant to have triplets. Seems you have a support system to help you and thankgoodness for that. No one understands whats it like to have multiples except mother of multiples and we need to help each other. Hang in there!!!!
