I'd like to throw this one out: How many kids do you have or want to have??? I wanted 6 and nature only gave me 2 with a little help from hormonal therapy. I love them with all my heart-but sometimes you want to shake them until their teeth rattle (HEHE) My boys are 15 and 12! Maryh

Well, right now I have my 3 "boys". They are 22, 23, and 27 yrs old, but sometimes you would swear they were 2 yrs old. LOL
Ultimately, I want 3 kids. 1 boy and 2 girls ideally (although I know I don't get to pick).

Jen - that is EXACTLY what I want. I was thinking that as I was reading the question, and there you go stealing my answer! LOL
I know you can't pick & choose, but I would love to at least have a couple of girls, and I think 3 would be nice.
But (and I KNOW you can't steal this part Jen! ), I would have liked to have started on them at least a year or two ago. Can't wait to get this wedding out of the way and get down to business!

Mags you are way too funny!
I have three boys, 9,7 and 6. I wanted to try one more time for a girl, but my husband said no more. Now my husband keeps talking about how nice it would be to have a girl. Funny part about it - my husband got fixed five years ago.
No more kids for us and I am thrilled to have three healthy and active boys. I love my morning hugs and good night kisses. I love to see their giggles after giving them lip stick kisses. I love reading to them every night and now that it is cold we snuggle under covers to read. I love my boys and could go on and on about them, but I wouldn't want to bore you.

I was completely 100% satisfied and happy with my 2 boys, having a girl never seemed like a big deal to me. But God saw differently and snuck her in there right before my husband got fixed, ha! So we have 2 boys, ages 5 and 3, and Sarah is almost 18 months. It's busy, exhausting, downright chaotic sometimes, and I wouldn't change it for the world!

I have two boys. 13 & 9. I think it's funny because I wanted girls and my sister wanted boys. She has two girls! I think God knew what He was doing though - I love my boys. I can't have any more. I have a bleeding disorder and had two high risk pregnancies - so my dh went and "got fixed" -- but then I ended up losing my uterus anyway as I wouldn't stop bleeding later. He'd still like a girl pretty badly -- but I kind of like being out of the diaper changing-midnight feeding business. Babies are fun to borrow now -- I'm not sure I want one of my own anymore. Selfish?

Really? Jen? Well, my gosh girl...you don't look a day over 21? Oil of Olay, twice a day? LOL
Anyways - this is actually a pretty heated topic for me and DH...OK get your mind out of the gutters people...I said Heated TOPIC not HEATED anything else...LOL
I want 3! Because in my family we only had two of us and we always had to tie on end of the skipping rope to garden shed door. 3 Kids and they can all skip together LOL
Here's how we have decided.. If we have a boy and a girl right away we are done...Two boys or two girls right away then we are having one more...Got it? Nah! Neither did hubby - he said we will discuss final numbers when Child #2 comes.

Right now I have 1 daughter who is almost 4...we think about having more but aren't sure. I think that when we move back home to Pittsburgh, we might try. That way we have some help around if we need it!
