Plain Jane Mom

My life in California with Mr. Plain and our sons Mike, Robbie, and Chip. We adopted our first child, Mike, after almost 5 years of trying to get and stay pregnant. Two days before we adopted him, we found out I was pregnant with the embryo who would later be known as Robbie. Mike and Robbie are only 8 months apart! 2 years later I got pregnant with Chip, and the rest is (very messy, smelly, and loud) history. Yes, it's true, we have 3 boys who are less than 3 years apart.
