When we eventually have kids, I want them to be close together....like 1 to 1.5ish years apart.  Maybe I am sick too?  :o)

Famous last words Wink

Tru Dat!  When I was younger, I also used to think that I wanted a lot of kids - like 4 or 5.  Now, the idea of 1 kid scares the piss out of me, lol.  I guess we'll see how it goes. 

P.S.  I want to steal Chloe.  :o)

Re: ~~Jackie~~

  • 4 or 5?! I always said I wanted 2. Even if both were the same gender.

    P.S. I was actually going to page you because I was going through some of my pictures and came across one of you & I. However, my work blocks all photo hosting sites so I cant post it. Sad

  • Aw, which pic?  Is it from Rachel's wedding?  I still have our ones from the booth.  :o)  We need a b-list get together, haha!  I haven't seen any of you guys in so long!

    Yeah, 4 or 5.  Crazy, right?  I grew up in a house with 5 kids (including me), and both of my parents are one of 5.....it gets a little hectic, but holidays and family get togethers are SO much fun!  :o)  DH says he wants 2 -- 1 boy and 1 girl.  I told him, good luck with that.  lol

  • haha - I went from never wanting kids - to wanting 5 kids - to three kids.  Then I had Dayne and for the first three weeks I swore he was going to be an only child.  Then I agreed to another one and I'm back at possibly three kids again.  I think we'll probably stop at two though.  We'll see.

    ETA: I am the oldest of four kids Mara and my mom is the oldest of five, my dad comes from four.  I love our huge family but there is no way we can afford four kids.  Three would be our max!

  • Yes, that's the one. I love those pictures. So cute! I havent seen anyone since my wedding. I completely agree that we need to get together again.

    See, I grew up in a house with 2 brothers living with my dad. With my mom I was an only child. But my mom has a HUGE family. I have 7 aunts & uncles all with no less then 2 kids. Now some of my older cousins have kids/babies themselves so its getting even bigger. It is a blast at family functions. Actually, some of my cousins are my best friends.

    Hey having a boy & girl could be a possibility. You will just have to try and time it right according to the old wives tale.

    Ha... this was me too. Only, change the 5 to 3 and 3 to 2 kids.

    You are right! That's not good! I agree with Mara...we need a GTG. Maybe a trip to Gigi's!

    That is exactly what Tyson says to me!  :o)  I figure they get less expensive the more you have -- just make them wear hand-me-downs, lol.  Cheaper by the dozen, right??  I'm kidding.  I know exactly what it is like to not be able to do things as a kid because you can't afford them (summer camp, senior class trip to Spain, new cleats for sports, etc).  It sucked big time.

    Jason's biggest thing is the college fund.  I told him I went to college without my parents paying for it and he said "Yeah I know, we're paying for it still." haha.  I guess if I could afford to send them I would to prevent having to take out a loan.  We do have a savings account for Dayne that hopefully will go towards college.
