I went to the doctor today for another ultrasound just to check the measurements of our baby girls. Both babies are doing remarkably well, and now weigh exactly 1 1/2 lbs. each. People have been asking me if they are sure that they are both girls and the answer is YES, they are both girls. My doctor said that everything looked perfect and things should very smoothly with this pregnancy. He sees to reason that I should deliver prematurely so that's always good. My doctor is so cute, and has such a fun personality. Today he kind of chuckled as I was leaving the office, and said "you know four weddings are going to be expensive." I responded. "yeah I know, the weddings are the least of my concerns, think of all of the estrogen that is going to be in our house."How do you raise four teenaged daughters."
You know you're really a mom when...
1. You count the sprinkles on each kid's cupcake to make sure they 're equal.
2. You want to take out a contract on the kid who broke your child's favorite toy and made him/her cry.
3. You have time to shave only one leg at a time.
4. You hide in the bathroom to be alone.
5. You child throws up and you catch it.
6. Someone else's kid throws up at a party and you keep eating.
7. You consider finger paint to be a controlled substance.
8. You mastered the art of placing food on a plate without anything touching.
9. Your child insists that you read "Once Upon a Potty" out loud in the lobby of the doctor’s office, and you do it.
10. You hire a sitter because you haven't been out with your husband in ages, then spend half the night talking about and checking on the kids.
11. You hope ketchup is a vegetable because it's the only one your child eats.
12. You can't bear the thought of your daughter's first boyfriend.
13. You hate the thought of her husband even more.
14. You find yourself cutting your husband's sandwiches into unusual shapes.
15. You fast-forward through the scene when the hunter shoots Bambi's mother.
16. You obsess when your child clings to you upon parting during his first month at school, then obsess when he skips in without looking back the second time.
17. You can't bear to give away baby clothes--it's so final.
18. You hear your mother's voice coming out of your mouth when you say, "Not in your good clothes."
19. You stop criticizing the way your mother raised you.
20. You read that the average five-year-old asks 437 questions a day and feel proud that your kid is "above average."
21. You say at least once a day, "I'm not cut out for this job," but you know you wouldn't trade it for anything.
