Chrissy Teigenadmittedlyhas her hands full as a mother of three.

The entrepreneur, 37 — who sharesLuna Simone, 7,Miles Theodore, 4½, and 9-week-oldEsti Maxinewith husbandJohn Legend—opened up about mom lifeon Wednesday in an interview withExtra’s Jenn Lahmers, joking about how she copes during overwhelmed times.

“I get the iPad now,” Teigen said, joking how she understands the parenting trend with younger kids being digitally submerged to Apple products these days. “My excuse is Miles is a dinosaur genius; because of the iPad, he can recite every name, every everything. Luna is, like, designing clothes. So it’s not, it’s not all bad.”

Asked whether Teigen’s oldest children realize the family they were born into, the model explained there was some awareness there. “They know, like, photographers and stuff,” she said. “Like they’ll be like, ‘My friend said that they saw you onThe Voicelast night’ … they get it, but not really.”

“And we’re still not, you know, you’re never gonna be cool to them anyway,” theCravingscookbook authorsaid.

“I know … crazy,” she acknowledged of their growing brood. “At least it’s fun and at least it’s funny John and I can look at each other and be like, ‘Oh, my God, like, what were we thinking?’ which happens anytime we’re like, ‘Oh, we felt good about leaving the house today…’ It’s a caravan.”

“We’ve never once been out and been, like, ‘We’re really glad we did that,'” Teigen joked, noting that she and her Grammy-winning husband will make up their “own little jingles and lullabies” with the kids.

The “All of Me” singer went on to share thatLuna and Miles are adjusting well to their new family addition. “[It’s] very exciting,” Legend said. “I was just saying my kids are doing so well. My older kids are doing so well with her and (it) just fills the house up with more love.”

“I just think we’re more comfortable with ourselves and our parenting style and I think we’re just more comfortable being parents now,” he added about being a dad of three. “So dare I say, it’s easier.”

Trying to be as supportive as he can to help his wife with their kids, Legend has recently reduced his workload.

“I’m still working, but less work and I’m not touring this year, but just doing occasional shows,” he said. “And I’m not doingThe Voicethis season, but coming back later. So it’s kind of a moderately reduced schedule. Chrissy probably wishes it was a little more reduced, but this is definitely reducing my workload this year.”

“What a blessed day,” he added.

“Daddy sheds nightly tears of joy seeing Luna and Miles so full of love, and I am learning you still need diapers with a c-section!? We are in bliss,” Teigen said. “Thank you for all the love and well wishes - we feel it all! X.”
