It’s A Girl! Woohoo!
On the eve of what hopes to be a historic day in American history my BFF Rene just called with the news that she is having a baby girl. A baby girl! I am besides myself and so excited for her. I know she would have been happy with either, but I was unapologetically hoping for a girl (and it looks like I got my way).
I fully admit that I plan on living vicariously through Rene and this baby. I have already been eying a bunch of things to get for this kid and can’t wait to be a bad influence. It’s going to be on like Donkey Kong! All the fun, none of the responsibility. Yay!
I never planned on having anymore kids aside from Paige but I have to admit that on occasion I think about what it would be like having another one. I don’t long for it, but I think about it.
Honestly, I am just on the cusp of figuring out who I am and what that means … and that seems like enough of a challenge for me right now. Having more kids would mean settling down with someone which really seems unlikely (not that I am a pariah, I just am a commitment phobe).
But life always is full of twists and turns and I haven’t been able to predict much of anything so far.

Shameless!

, BlueHost, Freshbooks and OpenSky may take you a purchase page of a company where I am a member of an affiliate program. As a result, I will often get a small percentage of the revenue or a commission off of something you have purchased. I am not otherwise paid to link to these sites, nor do I link to any products that I don't actually use or covet in real life. On the rare occasion I accept payment to review a product, it will be duly noted in its associated post.
Have no fear - you are under no obligation to buy anything to get the full enjoyment of this site. We can still be friends even if you never click on an affiliate link. Rest assured, this is all low pressure. I will never show up at your door with tiny vials of Avon perfume or trial jars of pearl cream to entice you. That said, I do truly appreciate when you do purchase something from a linked site - it all helps to keep the lights on and a roof over our heads.
