Oh.... I forgot to add amongst the housework and mounds of washing - that my #3 is the most happy, flexible, easy going little bub - such a joy - I can wake him at a moments notice after a 20 min nap if I have to go out and do the school run, or stretch him out an hour if it is too early to get him to bed to last until after eg swimming lessons - thank goodness!!!

They really do just fit in.

I find in funny now in hindsight when I talk to new mums of #1 how they won't leave the house cos of baby X's routine, or needs a sleep (BTDT so that is not judgemental in anyway) - with 3 you have to get out and get on with life - I think that influences their nature too.
