we got a letter the other day. my 6 yr old decided he was going to be a goat all day at school. come to find out all the kids in his class (7 kids in 1st grade class) decided to be animals after lunch and kept makeing noises.
they all got in trouble lol.
lmao!!! I could see my five year old doing that. She likes to be a "mouse" haha.
Gratz we had our first a year ago.... but I was 45:ninja:
I'm 45 and I have 3 boys, youngest is 9. I can hardly fathom having another one right now - all I can say is good luck.
Congrats OP! I enjoy my kids most of the time but it is definitely a patience tester. Not having the freedom to just "up and go" is probably the worst part of the whole experience but it's gratifying especially when your kids are as awesome as mine.

been together almost 15yrs....
I remember that feeling at the first ultrasound all excited to see it. The tech looked at us and asked if we were expecting twins. My wife and I looked at each other and thought how the hell is this happening to us? It was a great feeling.
She ended up on strict bedrest for 6 weeks straight and I was there with her nearly every hour. If there's one thing I've learned, it's that you just do what you gotta do. Best of luck to you. It was fun with anticipation until they came out.
I do miss being able to just do what we wanted. Now our vacations revolve around them since they're still young and we don't want to miss their growing up by spending what little free time we have just for ourselves. Give and take.
One of my good friends found out he's going to be a Father recently. It's not a good situation at all though. He's 42 and the girl he got pregnant is 24. They both work at the same company, and hooked up at an office Christmas party back in Dec. It was just a one-time sexual thing. He begged and pleaded with her to abort the pregnancy, but she does not believe in abortion. He even offered her $5k to abort the pregnancy but she has refused. He's a wreck right now. He does not want to be a Father at 42. Not with somebody who was nothing more than a one night stand. But thanks to a broken condom at the worst possible moment, he's going to be one. According the child support tables, based on his income, he'll be paying about $900/month to her once the child is born.
My wife is due on 6/29. Considering how excited you are, you must not have found out like I did.
Doctor: So you want to get the birth control implant? You know it's for three years!
Us: Heck yeah 3 years WHOOOOOOOO
Doctor: We just need to do some blood work.
Next morning: Your preggers
Following morning: Yep def preggers and already at 2 months.
Me: OH MY GOD
Wife: *Starts crying*
Good times, good times.
Broken condom? What he didn't pull out?
My father "re" became a father at 55!!! That's right, my step sister was born an aunt to my daughter (who is 1 year older).
:biggrin:
Does he like the girl? Maybe he can make it work? Sounds like he wants nothing to do with it though.....which is pretty sad to be honest. Time to take responsibility for his actions.
