My cankles and I have just returned form Walmart, my favorite store in the world, and I'm now eating chocolate chip cookie dough. Right from the wrapper. I love being pregnant.
Most of you know that Aaron and I have decided, again, to wait to find out what we are having. We have three boys between us (Hub-8-mine; Jackson-6-his; Gavin-2-ours) and everyone keeps asking if we are trying again for a girl. Honestly, the thought of a smart-mouth, sassy, mini-me scares the hell out of me. When I was pregnant with Hub, I really wanted a girl because I have a great relationship with my mom. When we were pregnant with Gavin, we kind of wanted a girl because we HAD two boys.
Now, I'm thinking back on the past 8 years of parenting a boy and really hoping that God gives me the chance to do it ONE MORE TIME...
- For those of you with girls, this is what you're missing;
- For those of you with younger boys, this is what you have to look forward to;
- For those of you with older kids, I hope this will remind you of some of the great conversations you've shared with your boys...
Feel free to weigh in with your opinions...
- In a battle between Yoda and James Bond, who would win?
- If peeing is #1 and pooping is #2, does #3 and 4 exist, and if so, what are they? This is one of my favorite in-the-car talks...
- Why spitting is never appropriate indoors
- How far you need to get from the house, car, pool, or family before you pee outdoors
- The necessity of tissue (both clinically and socially) during cold and flu season
- Why yelling "butt naked" in a public restroom or dressing room is inappropriate, even if you are, in fact, "butt naked"
I'd love to hear some of your all time favorite kid conversations...
Til next time-
