something i thought of today..

i think i might be able to start a blog and keep it open of things i'd LOVE to say to people but don't do so b/c i'm polite like that..

two examples..

#1
i've just about got the hang of manuevering the long double stroller of mine. and when i'm alone and the doors aren't automatic, i line up the stroller to the door, walk to the front of the stroller, open the door, hold it w/ my foot, grab the stroller from the infant carrier handle and pull it toward me, keep pulling/pushing it along me into the store until the handlebar reaches me, i grab the handlebar, let go of the door (remember my foot / leg extended?) and go back to pushing the stroller.

well, i was at oldnavy just the other day and as i was attempting the above steps, it didn't go as smooth. the back wheels, by the handlebar, bumped up against the door frame, so i had to keep the door open w/ my foot / leg extension and push / pull the stroller from the carrier holder to try and get it aligned. meanwhile, i have these people passing by and saying, "omg! twins! how cute!!" uhm, hello?!?! nevermind the "cute twin" mommy struggling to get the "cute twin" stroller into the door!!!!

i was returning some items at BRU and the customer service lady recognized me (and the twins) from the numerous times i've been there. and she starts, "oh wow! look at them, they're so cute!! that's always been my dream! i told you that last time right?" i reply w/ "yea you did.. and thanks!" but i really wanted to tell her.. "lady! at least you're having dreams! we hardly have time to dream when we're up every night at 2am feeding these babies!"


yes... i know... it's mean thoughts and while it probably sounds like i'm unappreciative of my babies, it's not the case.. it's just real. real thoughts i've had and that i'm sure other multiples parents have had at some point. we can't be the only ones!
