Same here.
Re: wanting to have the same last name as kids, I had several friends growing up whose mothers had different last names than they did, and there was no mass confusion. However, I am amused by the number of people who assumed (without asking) that I would be taking my husband's name, despite the fact that I have a graduate degree and work in a field where it is more common to keep one's last name rather than change it.
