baby bunching bests

And on praising our readers, here are a few Baby Bunching bests for this week.

Kate over at The Big Piece of Cake is an awesome writer and very honest about her life with kids 18 months apart (include a set of twins in there). This past week she has documented her days at home--one, two, three and four--alone with all three kids while her husband was traveling.

As Cara mentioned earlier this week, we are continually amazed by those profound Baby Bunchers. I recently stumbled upon AnyMommy's blog Is There Any Mommy Out There? She writes about being pregnant for the last time. She is the mom to two three-year olds (one adopted shortly after her son turned one--so they are almost the same age), an 18-month old and a fourth baby on the way. She writes a very profound essay about her "forced twins." I was very moved by her words and her spirit.

MamaNeena at The Adventures and Misadventures of Ubermom had me laughing out loud with her post on "The Quest . . . for the perfect way to lose the baby fat. I love the new use for the baby gate around the treadmill. Very inventive. 

We all have those forgetful moments. Did we remember the stroller? Do we have our keys? Are all the kids in the car? Casey over at Half As Good As You writes a very funny post about how fast food saved her family when she realized she forgot to turn off the car. 

MaryBeth over at Four Silly Sisters writes about how much things seems to change from one day to the next. One day she felt she "off to the nut house" and the next resulted in children "waking up on the right side of the bed."

And we'll end with a very nice haiku from Manic Mama at Life with Maggie and Ben.

AnyMommy is amazing, she is such a gifted writer.

Thanks for including me in the list this week! You'll be happy to know, I got a carbon monoxide detector today just in case...

I love Casey and Kate and I can't wait to meet the others. Thank you for the incredibly sweet write up - I didn't know about this blog until recently and it is really fun to have such a resource.
