    I am going to add to my earlier post by saying we have just had the best weekend with our three.

    Lexie has just turned two, Charlie is 3, and Olivia is 4.

    We have done nothing special: went for a long walk yesterday, gardened and popped out to do a bit of shopping today.

    And even the shopping has got easier, LOL!

    All of a sudden I feel like we have turned the corner from absolute bedlam to happy chaos.........

    Not one tantrum or one poo'd nappy all weekend.......so I am a happy Mummy to my three tonight!

    Bek, I only have one and I think it's ENOUGH!! But I bet I change my mind one day. All I can say is those with more than one, you are supermums, my Mum had 3 kids under 5 and I have NO IDEA how she did it!!!

    queenbee - I am definately not a supermum. I regularly doubt my ability and coping skills. I just met a lady at playgroup with 4 boys under 5!!! she actually has 5 boys and she works full time....now that is amazing

    Babe, we ALL do! I think you're a fab mum, if it counts?! LOL.

    My best friend has 2 sets of twins under 4 - now THAT'S a supermum!! But if you ask her, she'll tell you she just takes it day to day like any of us do...
