You know you're good friends when your ning nings are out all weekend & y'all don't even notice...This weekend I had my girls Hendo & Donna come for a visit & it's just what I needed...Chats, good food, help with the kiddos & lots & lots of laughs...They got to see Old Betsy in full swing & it was nice to have other mums validate that the whole feeding/pumping process was insanity...It's one thing to have the hubs say he understands but since he truly has no physical clue, it somehow helped hearing other mums recognize how demanding it has been...
And its brought some good news...Pip has gained a wee bit of weight which the docs were pleased with...
So, having my girls here really was just what I needed- They completely spoiled me too- Tons of chats & listening to what it's been like with Reid...Taking care of busy boy Noal & even throwing me a surprise Paddy's Day party to celebrate my fav holiday...
It's amazing the efficiency of 3 mums...We went shopping two days in a row & it was an effortless process with 3 mums- One grabs the stroller & purses, one grabs Noal & one grabs the baby...It got us thinking would life as a parent with 2 woman be that much more efficient? Would 2 gals just work to the capacity of 2 mothers? And if so imagine all that could get done?
I have no plans soon, to trade in my hubs for another lady- But, Sweet Jesus, for the weekend it was nice to have another set of Mum hands on deck...
I love you two & miss you both already...Thanks for the amazing weekend friends...

T, I'm SOOOO happy for you that you had this much needed weekend with your gf's, one of whom is my beloved little sister Jenn. Seeing your big smiles really warmed my heart - you are all lucky to have each other, and I'm sure seeing you, your boys and after great anticipation, your little Princess Pip, brought them as much joy as it did you! The surprise party idea was perfect, and so sweet...good job girlies. If I ever win the lotto, and can't coax Hendo to let me buy them a house down here, I would pay for a private jet so Jenny could visit you more often. The pics were priceless, as I'm sure the memories are. Xoxo, Bee
