Nickel. i had 3 children in 3 years... Xander's 3.5, Declan 21 months (21 months between them) and Anneliese is 7 months (14 months between her and Declan) Life gets very hectic sometimes, but for the most part, my house is clean, the kids are happy and clean () and im relatively sane.... I love m,y hectic life, adn sometimes think about #4... but have decided to wait a few years on that one (when Anneliese is about 3 or 4, that way i can enjoy having a baby at home while the kiddies are at school!!)
