If you pack a weekender bag for a trip to the grocery store....
If you buy candles by how strong the scent is...to cover the smell of many spontaneous poopy diapers...
If you avoid eye contact with strangers at all costs to avoid the "Octomom/Jon & Kate +8" comments.....
If your savings account was depleted by formula and cases of diapers....
If you have stretch marks 4 inches wide....
If you have so much baby equipment you consider buying a separate house just for storage.....
If you don't BABY proof your house, you INVASION proof your house....
If your grocery bill matches your mortgage payment....
If you get two, three, or four times the love as the average mom....
If you watch two, three, or four babies sleep peacefully at night....
If you get to expierience two, three, or four babies hit their milesones....
Take first steps....
Say first words....
Give first kisses, and first hugs.....
Yes, being a Mom of Multiples is....different. It's hard, time consuming, and sometimes lonely...but the rewards are multiplied. I know *I* would not have my life any other way!!!!

So true.. thank you for such a wonderful post :)
You had me cracking up! I totally packed the "bag" for the grocery store the other day!
You forgot to add... If you drive a van as wide as your first house. (To fit the stroller longer than your car of course!!!) :)
Hahaha! Heather, you crack me up!!!!
Great list! I totally agree. I love #2 - we feel like we move in and out of everywhere we go!!
I'm looking forward to someday having less "stuff"
Brilliant. I only have twins and triplets so I am not quite as cool as you but I love the list you made...It is so perfect and I can relate to most if not all of them. I have seen your site before and I decided to really check you out...Now I need to follow you.
Oh how true this is. Came your from Multiples and More.
Well said mama!! I love this post! I know I have been so blessed with my twins to watch them hit all their milestones! Found you from Lani's!
