A day in the life - a few random things

Yesterday the children and I went to Costco to pick up some pictures and enjoy some lunch. While sitting down for a yummy lunch of a pizza and hot dogs two different women came over to talk to us.  Both wanted to comment on how busy I must be, I looked too young to be the mother of three children, and wanted to know if I wanted more children.  One of them actually asked me if I got a lot of comments on how unusual Hadley looks.  I have to laugh at the comments of others.  I did love the comment about how young I looked : )  

So, we headed out to the car after having lunch to a very hot car.  I let the windows down in the back and low and behold the back left window wouldn't go back up.  This leads me to the top 5 reasons we need a new van.

1.  the windows don't work

2.  the door locks don't work - well they work but I have to lock each of the 4 doors seperately.

3.  the entire trunk is taken up by my double stroller, single stroller, and baby carrier.

4.  I really don't have to strap the carseats in the back seat because they are so tight : ) Don't worry I still have them strapped down.

5.  I get excited when the air conditioning works ( thank goodness we don't live in Texas)

This leads me to things that have changed since becoming a mother.

1.  I am really excited about my new nursing bra coming in the mail.  Who gets excited about that...

2.  I am excited about the possibility of getting a van.  I always thought I was one of those people who would never drive one.

3.  When given the opportunity to shop for items for myself or my children I choose the children everytime.

4.  I never thought I would look forward to going to bed early.  I am a night owl.

Just a few random thoughts......
