My Life in Numbers

One of my favourite bloggers, G*Funk*ified, wrote a great post yesterday called My Life In Numbers and invited other bloggers to link in.

Qualitatively speaking, I think I have a wonderful life. Here's how things stack up in quantifiable terms.

38 - the number of years I've been on this planet
9 - the number of years that I've been a mother
29 - the number of years I lived as a well-rested, well-dressed person who could hold a train of thought for more than 20 seconds and never left the house with spit-up or Goldfish cracker mush on her clothing

3 - the number of sons I have
1 - the number of daughters I have
4 - the number of children I actually have
13 - the number of children that my neighbours probably think that I have

15 - the number of months between my third and fourth children
4 - the number of times I've given birth
1 - the number of epidurals I've had
3 - the number of times I wished at the last moment that I had taken the damn epidural
50 - the total number of months that I have spent breastfeeding
6 - the number of months I breastfed WHILE pregnant
11 - the number of nursing bras I threw away after I weaned my last child

19.5 - the cumulative number of years of experience I've accrued as a parent
9.5 - the total number of years that I have had a baby (or more than one baby) in diapers

14 - the actual number of granola bar wrappers I found in the back row of my van the last time I cleaned it
3784 - the (approximate) number of baby onesies and/or sleepers I've snapped up
3752 - the number of baby onesies/and or sleepers that I've snapped up correctly without having to go back and re-do one or all of the snaps

30 - the number of pounds I wanted to lose in 2012
3 - the number of pounds that I actually have lost

6 - the number of countries I've lived in
33 - the number of countries I've traveled to
163 - the number of countries I haven't traveled to
163 - the number of countries that I still want to see
23 - the number of winters I've spent in Canada
