Please Excuse My Poor Etiquette

I am ashamed to say, and publicly admit, that I have not sent out a single "Thank You" note since the triplets came home...4 months ago! I am embarassed by this and my only excuse is these 3 gorgeous creatures that keep me busy 24/7 (well, except when I'm asleep)! A typical day in the life is:

8:00ish - wake up (yes, I know I am extremely lucky with this time! Thank you, cereal!)
diaper change X 3
bottle X 3 (thankfully Ryan is around to help with this one!)

9:00 - a little Baby Einstein so I can eat a quick bite, wash bottles, etc.

10:00 - bath time X 3 and usually a little rocking

12:00 - diaper, bottle, nap in swing, repeat 2 more times

2:00 - shower for me! and any other "chores" I can get done while they are napping

upon them waking, we try to do some kind of activities (walk, pool or just toys here)

4:00 - bottles again!

8:00 - diapers, pj's, cereal, bottles, bed! (oh yeah, X 3!)

Then after they are all in dreamland it's more washing bottles, etc. Thankfully, Ryan makes the formula and "porridge" as he calls their cereal. Oh yeah, I try to fit in some time to eat as well! Not complaining in the least...I love my "job"! Just wish I had someone to clean up and cook for me! haha!

I also have to give a "shout out" to my mom and sister...without them, I'd be a bumbling, smelly mess! They have helped me so much and came to my rescue on many occasions!

So, back to what this post was meant to be about, I apologize sincerely for my lack of Thank You notes to those that have sent the most generous gifts! I DO plan on getting them out at some point...PROMISE!

Hi Lisa, I totally understand being busy. I don't think I would have ventured out either. Heck, we just started going out with ALL the kids and my trio are a year old!!! LOL You NEED to get the choo choo wagon from Greta, it's by far the best thing I have for them other than the triple decker stroller. Maybe in the fall when the HOMMIES meetings start back up we can meet.
