People say the jump from 1 -2 is hard or 2 -3.....its the 3 -4 thats hard. Bigger car for starters..(go the disco bus) space in the house, buying food, clothing.

Ive learnt to become a tight wad. I send my kids to the catholic school here (its private) cause everything BAR the uniform is included...and the uniform is pretty easy to get...polo tops with an iron on emblem and shorts in grey that I can get from dimmeys or big W. The school also has after school activities which are free..this term it martial arts on a monday night until 5pm and dancing for girls on a tuesday night.

We've noticed lately that our house is getting to small. we have a normal sized lounge room but its starting to get crowded. 2 bathrooms is a must!!!! We're even considering putting in a 3rd toilet in the new house cause we fight over the toilets we have.

Going on holidays is a pain in the butt as we have discovered lately. finding accomidation for 2 adults and 3 kids is hard enough...let alone 4 kids. Only way we got some was to opt for a portacoat for M and then we took a blow up matress.

Good thing is there is plenty of laughing...even when I scream like a fish wife cause we all start screaming and laughing. There is always atleast one kid that wants a cuddle when I want one, we all do things together which makes time go quicker.
Its also good to be able to sit back and watch the older kids looking out for the younger ones. The love and respect they have for each other melts my heart no end. NO amount of money spent could compeat with that

Ive often said to Jed that if I wasnt fixed up we'd be up to baby number 5 makes me sad but then were do you draw the line?

ETA - Trill...we only live on a small block and cant extend anymore lol. We want N to have his own room cause atm he's sharing with W and its driving him insane and really W needs his own room so he can have down time without N coming in being a loud mouth

like the breezeway idea...jed works for a transportable home company you know
