The stuff they don't print in books about motherhood.

Yep... so then I was pregnant with number 3.  Number's one & two were still babies (5.5 months and 20 months) and I find out about the third.  This is it.   Three kids in two and a half years... I am never having any more.  No way! 

We waited the whole pregnancy to find out the sex of the baby.  It didn't really matter because we had our 'pigeon pair' anyway.  You have no idea how many people said that we could stop having babies after our second because we had 'one of each'.  What's with that anyway.  The great 'Aussie Dream'?  Own a house and 2.5 kids.  A boy and a girl.  What is the .5?  How does that work?

Well another question I got sick of was "Do you know what you're having?"  I got to the stage that I answered   "Well I was hoping for a litter of puppies, but I'm told it's a baby."  Really, what else would I be having??

Anyway, she was born..yep a 'she'.  My husband guessed it was a girl because she was coming and then she wasn't, then she was.  He thought she must be doing her hair and makeup and deciding what she was going to wear... then changing her mind!!  Well, he was right.  it was a girl.

Then number four....

As I type this one-handed (because my 6 month old hasn't let me put her down for 6 months), I try to imagine having 4 kids. Noooooo.....
