About 9 months...

That's my favorite answer to give when people ask me my favorite question: "how long did it take you to curl their hair?!" Come on, people!! They're boys. I have three. Their hair is curly. It's not a perm. Yes, it's natural curl. Yes, they get it from me. Yes, they would make pretty girls. Yes, I get asked these questions on pretty much every outing. At first I thought people were socially ignorant, now I know they just can't control themselves when they see a double stroller and curls.

Here are the other answers to the burning questions that we are asked frequently.
-Yes, the younger two are twins.
-No, they big one is not a twin, nor their triplet.
-Yes, they're natural. They're sure as hell not artificial.
-Yes, we did fertility treatments.
-Yes, twins run in my family... Both literally run around everywhere and crop up in higher than average numbers.
-Yes, we know what typically causes twins/babies, sex, right?! See above, we still needed help.
-Yes, I planned/hoped/prayed for them to be close in age.
-I'm glad they're mine and not yours,too.
-You don't need to pray for me or "bless my heart", it's blessed every day by my kids!
-Yes, they're a lot of work, and a lot of love.
-I gained 11 pounds during my pregnancy.
-They were c-section, at 38weeks, 4 days. -They weighed 7.2lbs EACH.
-They're both twins.
-Yes, they look different.
-No, they're not identical.
-Yes, we can tell them apart.


SIGH. I feel better now. What ridiculous questions have YOU been asked??!!
