I just checked out your blog and am now a follower. :)
I am the complete opposite of you-math is not my thing. Great advice in your last post. I had difficulty leaving a comment, so I am leaving it here. :)

- That's exactly what my husband says too! LOL

- I would love to have a little girl but I just don't think it's in the cards for me, sadly. I really only ever wanted a girl, not that I don't love my boys cuz I do with all my heart... but I always wanted that "Mother/Daughter" experience and I feel like I'm missing out. Hubby got fixed when I was 17 weeks pregnant with Kaedyn and at 18 weeks we found out he was a boy - I tell you what, when I got that phone call from the DR - I broke down in tears, I was thankful he was healthy but it was the death of my dream of ever having a daughter. Since then we've talked about maybe getting it reversed if we can afford it in a couple years and trying one more time, but being 32 right now, I don't know if it'll happen. I had to fight for some of my kids (going on fertility drug)... so who knows what's in the cards for us. I think we both secretly hope for his big V to fail though.. lol..
