Life With Quads- Never a Dull Moment!

This is a compensated review by BlogHer and Intel.

Hi.

My name is Suz Steece.


I am a registered nurse who works 3-4 days a week.








I have 3 year old quadruplets who attend school twice a week.





My darling diva of a daughter is in dance and tumbling twice a week.

Life. Is. Busy.

Here is a sneak peek of my schedule from 7a to 7:30p:

• shower
• bathe quads, dry hair, lotion
• make breakfast, feed kids, prepare lunches & backpacks
• dress kids, squeeze on 4 pair of shoes
• finish getting myself ready, dry hair, makeup
• load up and drop kids off at school
• head to work at surgery center for 5 hours
• pick kids up from school
• get home, give snacks, get Savannah ready for dance
• load up all the kids and head to dance
• entertain boys while we wait for Sav for an hour
• class ends, head home
• eat dinner
• play with Dad, brush teeth
• story time, prayers, bedtime

PHEWWWWWWWW! Tired yet?!




And we will only get busier- with more activities to cram into our daily schedules as the years go by!


There are 2 very important things that get me through each day (and enable me to maintain my sanity):


(1) time management & (2) multi-tasking


I thank the good Lord for making me an extremely organized person (I have always LOVED a good spreadsheet…it’s a wee bit sickening, I know). Especially with quadruplets- you HAVE to be organized and efficient.


Spending as much time as I can with my beautiful children means the absolute world to me…





…that is why I am always looking for ways to DO MORE FASTER! For example: less time spent on the computer = more time with my little buddies.

---Enter, the Intel® Core™ i5 processor---
