ramblings online?

a good friend of mine has been hasselling me to put my ramblings down on paper (well online!) for ages and I've always said I don't have the time... yet I am online alot as I shop online, I am a FB addict and I find it relaxing after a full day of mummy-hood. I guess being online is my down time and a way for me to catch up with friends I often miss due to life in general, conflicting schedules, opposite timezones etc etc. So rather than say I don't have time, I figured I should try and see how I go. I have no idea if I will be able to keep this up, if it will make for entertaining reading or the real purpose of this blog but I'm hoping it will eventuate over time....
So, my story. I'm 32 in July, married to an englishman and about to finish work (office admin/sales type roles) for the forseeable future. Almost 2 years ago I became a Mum, and after a bumpy road to have my son and many thoughts of 'maybe I won't ever be a mum?', it appears I'm actually pretty fertile hahaha. I feel like I have been pregnant forever, and now have an almost 2yo boy (monkey), an almost 1yo girl (missymoo) and a 3rd (and final!) surprise in the oven... #3 is due in about 7 weeks but whos counting.
So many people have commented how crazy we are to have so many kids so close together and I guess if I sit down and think about the logistics and realities of 3 under 3, well I'd not only agree but I'd curl up in the foetal position in the corner and cry. Hello? 3 kids and only 2 hands?? eek!!
But on the flipside, I am so excited to meet our new addition. I can't wait to find out the gender which we have so far kept a mystery and I'm twice as excited to stop debating names!! And there are alot more people out there with more than 3 kids and they cope. I mean look at the Duggars!
Life with 3 under 3 will certainly be interesting, entertaining, busy, crazy and possibly downright carnage but hopefully there will be a few people read my ramblings and point me back to the road whenever I get lost... so here goes!!

  2. Can't wait to read more Eliza!! I'll be rooting for you on the sidelines as you juggle your brood and tackle this new adventure. I do believe life challenges us for a reason and nothing we can't handle and grow stronger for having lived it. Good, bad or ugly it will be a wild ride full of laughs and tears and I couldn't imagine a more capable woman to take it on. You were made to be a mum!!! Well done in the blog x
