Alone

Yesterday I took all 5 kids to the park by myself.  It was the first time I have taken them all out.  Besides the doctors and one quick visit to Target this is this first time the twins have been out.  It took me all day to prepare...mentally for this outing.  We were suppose to go around lunch time but really we went at 6pm.  Twins are just as horrible as I imagined.  I love my twins.  I really am grateful for them. However...it's pretty terrible.  VERY time consuming and VERY overwhelming when you have 3 younger children who are also demanding. 

I am surviving.  Some days better than others.  I have a great support system here, truly heaven sent angels who lift my burdens.  God bless good friends.

Cyndi-
You are amazing! I can't imagine going through the first year of my twins having 3 other children. I hope you have been able to get them to tandem feed if you are still nursing. If not, CALL ME!!! I felt so bad when I heard that it wasn't working well for you. No wonder they are so time consuming!
We didn't go out much when they were little. Hopefully it will be a little easier when the older 2 are in school. Good luck!

You are superwoman! Seriously you are my idol! I am impressed you took them all to the park. Did you get to stay long and let the kids tire out for bedtime? I hope they all slept like rocks that night. I can only imagine twins, but you make it look easy.
You look fantastic by the way :)
