Reality comes stomping in like a great big giant..... stomping thing...

Back in February we got our first REAL dose of reality, when we got a triplet stroller, and saw the thing parked in our kitchen.

It was a very profound moment. This is real. This is coming. We are so not ready for it, but it's coming anyway.

In the intervening months since then, we've gotten almost comfortable with the reality of the situation, almost passe about it. We know there's a freight train headed at us, but we've gotten almost relaxed about it. (Or at least I have, not trying to speak for the rest of the family TOO much! ;) )

We've been getting various baby things, either buying or being given them (THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to all that have helped!!!) over the months... But yesterday... We got cribs. Three identical, industrial cribs (They were surplus from a darycare center, slightly smaller than standard, and built solid.)

 

Wow... Seeing those lined up in the house really hits hard... They're coming, and they're coming soon, and we're so not prepared...


Yes, I'm a geek, never denied it, but the intro for World of Warcraft, The Burning Crusade keeps playing in my head... (The "You are not prepared" part, not the flying demons and warlocks parts... ;) )
