Lol Bek that $3 supplement is helpful, isn't it

I should clarify - I don't know anyone IRL with 4 kids, and only a handful with 3. So in my world, you qualify

- oh no - my boss has 4 kids. She's the only one

Hi ladies, just popping in to let you all know I haven't dropped off the face of the earth!! Just been really busy, with a frustrated little one I think he is teething, but he is being such a velcro boy he he he well that's my excuse anyway !!

Mmmm I dont really have a laqrge family, only 3 winkies... Have been TTC our 4th but it looks like that isnt going to happen, so I am now learning to be content with the 3 H&H winkies I have...

I have 5 sisters and a brother, I loved coming from a larger family, I think it was a great way to grow up ( not that I know any other way lol )...

anyway I hope you dont mind me joining in, I was hoping to be able to join in once I was UTD, but as I said that isnt going to happen now, so here I am

I love Christmas, I am very lucky to say that I still have a 9 yr old who still believes, which I think might be the last year, so I hope to make it speical for him, it will be a sad day when he is no longer a believer, the 1st real step into adulthood...

we use the potato method in my house, I grew up with it, so works well to keep them inline in the lead up to christmas time... ( a potato i like a lump of coal it repersents a present you should have gotten but didnt because you misbehavied ( sp?) so my lot normally get one or two... help for whe you in the shops from now on, I am foreve saying santa is watch you and counting out your spuds... you should see how fast they come back to my side )

we too have everthing on layby and wait to christmas eve to pick up... but this year I have a friend who said I could hide them at her house, so we might be picking them up soon, I hate the shops in dec too busy...plus the one up here is already really cramped, I would hate to see it in dec...

well I guess I have dripbled enough crap for now.... looking forward to getting to know you all, that is if you dont mind me been in here, with only a small family...

Bump..anyone????

[Trillian]

Around here where I am 4 is normal - there are so many families with 4 or more children and a few with 3 and even less with one or only 2 children.

[BekZ]

2 is the norm in our circle, but the school I have Sara into has a lot of 4 plus families.

I actually can't believe some of the comments we get with having the 3 kiddies. Its like we are a strange phenomenon (sp?)
