Congrats Karen!
One is enough, you're totally crazy. I can't imagine having a second baby to take care of!

Re: Am I Nuts?!
^^^ he is definitely a cutie! how old are you thinking of waiting for him to be before trying for another?
lol thanks Adam! I am definitely a little scared, but we are very happy as well. We have both always wanted 2 & having them fairly close in age was the plan (although we were aimin more for Brodie to be closer to 2, but I don't think 4mos off will make much of a difference)....we aren't getting any younger! we want to be able to do stuff with them without falling apart lol

Re: Am I Nuts?!
waiting another year.
. it's more work than my wife bargained for, having less children in her family and being around less children growing up (cousins, etc) her perspective on the workload was unrealistic. imho

Re: Am I Nuts?!
maybe you are a little nuts but congratulations
My own life is so busy I really can't envisage having time for children so I bought a tamogochi and that has satisfied my maternal instincts.
I have 15 jobs already and combined with listening to music and training to be a sumo wrestler it often doesn't leave time to invent stories on the internet, make close friendships through wikipedia and make lists of my favourite things that no One gives a fuck about.
Good luck. I take my hat off to anyone who has a real life and isn't living in a world of complete bullshit and make believe xxComment

Re: Am I Nuts?!
Congratulations!! Not nuts at all. I'm raising my sisters kids, she passed away 5 yrs ago in a car accident. I was unprepared for how much work it is, and I had lots of cousins and siblings. Being one of the younger siblings in my family, I guess everyone else did most of the work and took care of me. So taking care of children (or anyone) is rather new to me, but I love it. I have less time to take care of myself (the way I used to), but I believe this is one of the greatest jobs on earth and it's only for as long as they're needy little kids, so I don't mind. Kids keep you truthful and humble. They just lay things out for you and give you a new perspective on everything... especially kindness, I've found. If you're irritable, overwhelmed, or resentful, your kids will end up being kind of bratty I think, because they require alot of thoughtful, kind interaction and self sacrifice -- not everyone is cut out for. JMO Enjoy!! Blessing on it's way!!

Re: Am I Nuts?!
It's how we are wired, well some of us... when I see a cute infant, I really want another one too. If I had a good job with normal hours we would probably be ready now. But we are just trying to be as prepared as possible for our next child. I think it's great you are having another and commend you for your bravery
. When my sister was pregnant with #3, everyone was a little shocked when they found out because her twins were more than just a handful, but she's good at meeting challenges and overcoming them. I think you are probably similar in that regard
. She is also a stay at home mom, her husband has a secure job, which nowadays is incredibly rare, but he's an actuary and there aren't many of them out there but the position has a lot of demand.
It was fun while it lasted...
