The Toddler Wrangler... Introduction

It is all together unlikely anyone will actually read any of my blogposts, and honestly, I am really good with that, but I figured I'd try to put my daily thoughts out there strictly for my own sake... Every day has a tendency to become a bit of a blur, so having a place to put my randomness so I can look back seems appealing to me.

I am Jen, I am a mother to twin three year old boys, Graham and Austin, and my daughter, Abbey who is one.  The twins were about as planned as they could possibly be, while Abbey was the biggest surprise of a lifetime.  We had Abbey 5 days before the twins' 2nd birthday and her due date was actually on the twins' second birthday.  I am married to an incredible husband, Brian, and am currently a stay-at-home mom, which I go back and forth daily with how I love and hate to identify myself this way.  I am, for lack of better terminology, a toddler wrangler...  I wrangle them into their seats at breakfast, wrangle them into their clothes for the day, wrangle them apart when they are fighting, and so on.  I am not sure how much I will actually contribute to this blog, as it is kind of an experiment for me... You see, I had delayed onset post partum depression after the twins, and that didn't go away before pregnancy hormones assaulted me when I got pregnant with Abbey and its still lingering past her first birthday.  It's not the post partum everyone imagines where you hate life or your kids or anything, in fact I think I am one of the most active and participating moms I know (not a helicopter parent, just really involved), its more of an anxiety about almost everything kind of thing that I am working through... Every day seems to get better except the days that don't. Haha.

Anyways, SAHM of three toddlers, that are hilarious and wild and silly and crazy....  Well, I suppose that is my introduction because 1/3 just woke up from naptime... 

Adios to myself since I will likely be the only one ever to read this!
