since i last had time to write

its true, a lot has been stirring in my life lately, yet i have not found two minutes with free hands to write in weeks...
so my girls are more fun each day. a word to mamas with more than one toddler: there is hope. there will be days when the little hethans are not in full destruction mode and when you find everybody is having good time.
my big girls have been so adorable and fun to play with while my baby girl is such a teddy bear. she is very easy going and smiley. she just started drooling and is a bubble face mess. i love it.
we are finding ourselves outdoors everyday facilitated by our new (to us) mini van. thats right ladies, the car free experiment has ended.
i really liked the lifestyle we had for those weeks without. i learned how to really simplify, how to work around the busses and how to pace my life differently. then we found a mini van that is ideal for our family. it fit within our budget, is in great shape and has been such a joy to have in our lives. no longer are car rides filled with crying, toy snatching and punching.we all have personal space while traveling in a very compact mini van. it is so awesome. and our car payments are less than they were before.

well, the natives are getting restless. gotta go.

I don't care what anybody says, three little kids, car free sucks. Just sucks, sucks sucks sucks sucks sucks. By the time i get anywhere by bus with my three even with SO help, I am ready to kill somebody,namely myself. Congratulations on your minivan, if I didn't have mine I would be a useless emotional waste...besides, buspasses and fair is almost as much as if I drove anyway. I'll save the environment in other ways. Like peeing outdoors, babyzen says urine is a good thing.Eye-wink

I'm so glad you were able to get through the car-free time and gain something from it. A lesser person would have been a bit bitter about it. So glad you got a minivan that suits your family! Rock!
