  • Who did you use to do this with?

    My BIL did our wills, we went through State Farm for our insurance.

  • We are doing this now too - fun, fun.  Well, we had done insurance a while ago but we're doing our wills.  I had to ask my sister this weekend if she'd be Jane's guardian should something happen and I only had like 5 mins to ask her in person as our kids were running around and the rain started so I was just like "so, will you take Jane if we die? Great, thanks"

    That's kind of how our convo went too, minus the rain and running. :)

    We decided that my cousin who watches Zac while we work would be a best case/least change for everyone scenario. One day while picking him up I was like, "So if Mike and I died, you'd keep him, right?" She said yes and then we talked about how many times he poop'd that day.

  • Good for you for doing that.

    You'd think that since I work for lawyers and H had an 80% chance of deployment this year, that we would have done this, but nope, not yet. We still haven't come to a decision on who to ask to take the girl(s). We thought we'd be asking my bro and his wife, but now one of his bros/wife are in consideration.

  • I don't think it is morbid.  Better to make the decisions now when you're not under any pressure than be pressed to decide under bad circumstances or, worse, have the decision made for you.

    Of course, we still don't have a will because we cannot agree on who would care for our child(ren).  I think we are getting closer though.  DH is starting to realize that his parents are too old to care for a baby or child full time, as much as they may want to.  We each have life insurance, but I don't think we have enough.  At least, I don't think DH has enough.
