We have so many babies in our family or on the way and I can only focus on the one and little else. How do people do it?

First....

and there's quite a few babies in my family and friends circles just now too. I have a hard time remembering sometimes. I had no idea who the baby in my house was last week. It was a second cousin, and apparently I'd been her babysitter before too.

Yeah I have a whole new respect for single moms..one weekend without NV and I was very near the raggety edge...
Right now we have one baby Nv's sister just gave birth to twins a week ago. His other sister has 3 under 6 years old, his brother has 3 with a 4th on the way due Dec 12...
My family one on the way due Dec 19th ( weird coincidence there) 2 five year olds, 1 three year old and another baby 3 months older than Johnny. Making a grand total of 7 siblings( counting us too) with a total of 14 kids under the age of 6 .... YIKES

My goodness, that's a lot of little rugrats in one family!! But I have to say having a big family, especially with little kids to make gatherings interesting, is loads of fun. :) I can't imagine what it would be like if I had a small family :(
(though I know mine is still probably small compared to some others)

Ok I finally broke down and got a 3G phone... mainly because of work. I am all over the place at a variety of schools and I need to be able to check email and send responses and files and I can't from my current phone. Plus at this point I juggle phone and palm pilot and it's getting on my nerves.... so Driod it is:)

Surely you jest... Nv would kill me, but I can post from meetings ( of which I seem to have 20 per day) so that will help keep me happy:)

Also I can have pics and video of Johnny ...YAY

Oh and I found a mug you really need

I can't relate. Our family is small. The next generation of babies won't be until 10 or 15 years from now and I will be so old that remembering names their will be the least of my problems. My family got spread across the landscape long before I was born. The Depression and Dustbowl sent them off to find work and they now populate the west coast and the midwest. A few stayed in Nebraska. But even now the opportunities are small in that state. Only two small cities and the rest are farm towns. So each generation tends to leave for better opportunities.
