Ok, I have a few minutes so I'm going to answer a few more questions from people.
First, a question from Jaime:
Q: "Here's a question from a fellow triplet mama and if it's too personal, I completely understand but I'm wondering: Now that you've had triplets, would you consider having another baby down the road? I've had people say to me all the time about how I have an instant family and how I must be done but of course, that's not their decision. Just wondering if you've come across the same thing?"
A: I get asked this question every single time people find out I have triplets. If they don't ask the question then they at least make the comment that I can be done now because I have an instant family. I don't find this question too personal so I'll go ahead and answer it. Of course I would consider having another baby down the road. Would I consider having 3 again? I'm not too sure :) Right now we just feel blessed beyond words that we have these children at all. If we are blessed to have more then I would take it in a heart beat. No we won't be ready for quite some time, and yes our minds could change, but I am not shutting out the idea of having more kids simply because I had 3 at one time. Now, the thought of another pregnancy, in that aspect, I'm happy I got 3 with one pregnancy. I'm not ready for that again (hopefully next time I won't be carrying 3 so it won't be as bad).
Next is a question from Melissa, a.k.a. Mo or Moses:
Q: "Ya I have a question - can I have one of your babies? They are so stinking cute and you DO have three of them...and I only have one baby. So really not giving me one would actually be selfish. Think about it Ju."
A: Too bad you didn't call this past week Mo. I was having a sale at my house, buy 1 get 2 free! It was quite the deal :) Too bad you missed it. Some days though, hopefully this is like most moms and doesn't make me a bad mom, I would give you one of them. Choosing between the 3 screaming children would be hard though...ha ha. I do think they are stinking cute and I think everyone should want one but no they are mine. I'm sorry. Try again soon, the sale comes around every so often...
And finally the last one for tonight is a question from my sister-in-law Erica:
Q: "You're doing an amazing job at raising these 3 adorable babies- but, if you could have a whole 24 hours to yourself... what would you want to do? Lay on the beach? spend a day at the spa? (that's where I would be! At a spa ON the beach!) wanna join me?"
A: 24 hours to myself? I can't even hardly imagine that right now. One thing I have learned about being a mommy is that you are never really "off duty". You never really have a break, even when you leave the kids at home with someone else. You are still a phone call away about medicine, feeding, pooping, screaming, etc. You have a time limit and have to stick to it to be home in time. So this is a hard question. I think what I would do right now is sleep a lot. Sleep the deepest sleep I have had in months. No one fussing for a binkie, no one hungry, no one crying. I would sleep in. I would go to a spa or a beauty salon to let someone get me all done up, that is something that really hasn't happened since having the kids. I would enjoy some quiet time with only my thoughts, maybe read, shop, anything. But most importantly, I would get out of the house! A whole day to just myself...sounds beautiful. I know I would miss my babies and my husband but I can dream right....ahhhh.
Well that is it for now. I was going to upload a picture but my computer is freaking out. I really really need to get it fixed as soon as possible before something bad happens!
