We have 5 kids, ranging in age from 12yo to 21m. #3 and #4 are 9.5 months apart. #3 wasn't even CRAWLING when #4 was born. I really don't remember the first year after #4s birth.

This blog post cracked me up. The only reason I'm able to comment right now is because #5 is strapped in to his high chair eating lunch, and hasn't yet mastered the manual dexterity needed to

ROFL!!! Don't drink for me... drink WITH me!!! lol!!! I have five altogether, the youngest are 5yo twin boys. I was the idiot who not only PRAYED for twins, but had my uber-Catholic Grandfather prayer for twins. I got twins! :faint:

I am counting the seconds until they go to kindergarten. Maybe I will see my husband again. Maybe I'll actually see a movie at a theater. Maybe I&

I would just like to let you know that phase four can sometimes last into the teenage years as it has with my son. My daughter on the other hand exited stage four at around age five and decided to re-enter at 14 and remains there at 16. I know that I will be sending them out to fend for themselves in a few years and when I do I will be sending care packages filled with fire extinguishers and

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I am in the middle of Phase Four. I call it any number of those given names in one day...and I totally needed a good laugh. Because this thinks-he-knows-it-all little meanie is driving me outta my gourd! You ladies are AWESOME!!! :)

2011-09-07T10:30:40.116-04:00

OMG THANK YOU! I'm pregnant with my first and badly badly BADLY needed a laugh! I giggled and snorted and belly-laughed through the entire blog, all the more so because I know full well that in another three months this will be me!

I am so there in phase 4 with you. The boy-child is often referred to as Devil Dog, the Hellion, Satan Spawn, or the Devil Child and his introduction is often followed by, "If he'd have been the first, he'd have been the last." Seriously, I put him to bed at 3:30 yesterday afternoon. His daddy is out of town for 3 months, we are currently trying to sell our house and are in the

Good stuff (I type as my 9 mo. old is stuck between the end table and the wall and my 5 year old twins are watching something totally inappropriate on the "Man-room" tv. It's a good thing we forget or the race would cease to exist.

2010-03-19T17:36:41.789-04:00

My sweet little cupcake is 3 and I'm pretty sure thinks she's 15. Over night she went from being a glowing angel to a moody, psycho that wails at the drop of.... well pretty much anything. It has gotten to the point when she falls asleep watching cartoons, we leave her where she falls for fear of the hell we will surely catch if we wake her! I have repeatedly told my husband his "

2010-03-10T08:54:45.803-05:00

you just put a huge smile on my face this morning. My children all fall in the 5-13 range presently and when I am pulling my hair out and totally exaspirated by their shananigans, I will remember this post, think back on that stage of their lives and be thankful I am one year nearer to their adulthood and independance. Thank you!

Good God, my twin boys are 14 months old and about to enter Phase 4; really, any second now they will be walking. One of them is already climbing and getting into EVERYTHING. Soon, I will be "Oh Schmidt-ing" all over the place!!

This is by far, the funniest thing I've ever read... its so very, very true. I actually read this out loud to my husband.

Just found your blog -- your writing is hilarious!...

2010-03-06T08:03:19.387-05:00

Just found your blog -- your writing is hilarious!! I want to be funny too now. Once in a while it happens but usually my posts are photos of my girls to document what they're up to . . . boring for everyone but the grama's.

I have 2 kids, 16 months apart. The first 4 years are a complete blur, and I have blocked out most of it. My hat's off to all of you mommies with more than 2. Hubby and I decided to stick with the man-on-man defense.

I just did a blog post (or two, or three...) on the stuff they get into it lately.

As always, you guys rock.

With a 21 month old girl powered by Energizer, I can relate. My only prayer is, her future siblings go after me instead of their dad, who reportedly was just as bad as a toddler.

2010-03-05T10:53:43.175-05:00

Way too funny! and way too true. I have a 15 month old and she can get the covers off the electric outlets, LOVE's climbing the ladder of her sisters bunkbeds, and thinks that the toilet is the BEST PLACE EVER to play, with the kitchen garbage a close second.

God played a cruel joke on me...I was the mother of 3 all with in 3 1/2 years. I waited 5 years just to have 1 more to enjoy all by it's self. Guess what? Identical twin girls! They are now 6 and life as we knew it has never been the same since their arrival! I love them dearly but they are aging me quickly! Had they been the first they would have been the last!

2010-03-05T08:49:54.122-05:00

How about the "I don't care how old you are, you are not your big sister" phase. That is my problem here with my 13 month old and has been since she was 6 months old.

My youngest has always been trying to do the things her big sister (the old and wise 6 year old) does and just yesterday, I caught her sitting on the floor with paper, scissors and a glue stick trying to

'The All My Phone Calls End With "Oh No! Baby! I've Got to . . .{Click}' ....sadly, 3/4 of my phone calls end like this. And for those that think sleep time is safe time---when my 3rd was 11 months old, I took a shower while she slept in her crib. When I got out of the shower, she had climbed out of her crib, stacked a stool on top of a chair that she managed to drag in front
