[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just found this thread and bumping it. I'm 12 weeks pregnant with my third (older children are 15 months and 3.5) and didn't find many of these responses reassuring. Any other pieces of advice? Also, when does it get better after the third starts walking? [/quote]
My DH said it was a switch from man-on-man to zone defense.  :lol: Really, it's a matter of having more flexible thinking and being able to switch things up as you go. For sure, everyone on the same schedules as much as possible. It gets busier as they get older. Activities were chosen such that everyone could participate either at the same time or back to back. (Swim lessons - all in pool same time, different groups. Soccer - DH coached 3 teams so they had to schedule games around him. Piano - back-to-back lessons.) As kids got older, they didn't have "chores". Instead, it was "team family". We are all making dinner, we are all cleaning the family room, we are all doing laundry, etc. Each kid pitched in with what they were capable of. [/quote]
