    Every time you guys name a kid after a Crew player he scores. Just saying. You all need to time that with the playoffs.

    That would be 2016 at the earliest. While an eager young bride can sometimes beat nine months....

    For those of you not friends with me on the Facebook, I did my due diligence and reproduced again. She might not be as real of a fan as her brother (who as many of you know busts out into Crew chants randomly, every day, and drums chants on his actual drum set), but she might just be the newest fan.

    I predict this one will take after her mother.

    Congrats again.

    Do you realize how high of a bar you just set for the adorable Xmas card picture? Think before you post.

    I have one similar to this with my girls. My oldest at 4 years, holding her new sister. Loved the picture so much I made it a portrait, had it framed, wrapped it up for the next Christmas and hung it up while wrapped for my wife. So when she came downstairs in the morning, she was staring at this wrapped picture. Unwrapped ensued, and then tears as well. One of my all time favorite Christmas memories.

    Yeah, two was enough. My wife says a lot that she does beautiful babies well, but doesn't do pregnancy well.

    Our second child has given us great stories from conception. She's been the blessing to end the new babies chapter for us. Her story started with us finding out we were expecting her when my wife was on a hospital bed, in a hospital gown and about 10 minutes from receiving a shot of anesthesia. My wife was scheduled for a hysterectomy.

    That's an intense story! We found out that my wife was pregnant with our (recently delivered) third baby one night after both agreeing that it was time to schedule my vasectomy.

    Took us 3 years to conceive our first, 3 days to conceive our second. A year and 11 days apart.

    We are uncertain about whether we want to dive into the crazy world of three kids. First child took no attempt at any real "trying." Pregnant around a month after our wedding. Second child was a "our kid should have a sibling and it would be nice if we conceived within the next year..." Pregnant within weeks of that talk.


    Both of our kids were planned, and I would prefer not to have a "whoops" baby like many couples. I love how the lady doctor gives you advice about if you get pregnant within months after you deliver. I said something along the lines of "that will not be happening." Three kids seem like they would be a game changer.

    Honestly, the transition to three has been way way easier than the transition to two. That said, there's no doubt that there's something different about being outnumbered. It's cool that the older kids can entertain each other and pitch in with the third. Fortunately being faculty at Kent means my kids get free tuition. :) I demand scholarships if they want to go elsewhere (not really).

    Momma has been getting the inkling here lately. I'm not sure about it either. Daycare costs for two are bad enough.
