So I stole this from another momaroo who stole it from another mom. Haha. Just keepin the chain of stealing going.

Been together for 2 years
5. Were you ready for kids?
We were not ready, but she was no accident
6. What do you think is the best age gap between kids?
3-4 years. As soon as she's out of diapers, I think is the perfect time to have another.
7. How long have you changed diapers?
about 10 years. Between my nephew, cousin, niece, and my baby...It's been about 10 years, haha.
8. What is one thing you gave up after being a parent?
Sleep, alone time, and convenient travel
9. What is one thing you gained after being a parent?
A whole new world of unconditional love and amazement, not to mention more paitence too.
10. If you could go back and do it differently, would you?
Never!
11. Are you going to have any more kids?
Yes - I want a boy. So hopefully the next one is a boy, if not, 3 is our max. So if we get all girls..."sorry honey!" haha
12. Have you let yourself go after having kids?
hahahaha....yes
13. Do you still secretly wear your maternity clothes because they fit?
Secretly?? HA! Did you read my last post?
14. Do you have stretch marks?
Yes, my stomach looks like WWIII happened right on my stomach. And they're still purple.
15. Are you happy with your body?
Again....do you even read my posts? haha.
16. What do your kids call you?
"oooohhh!! aaaaahhhhh!! grrrrrr!!" haha...I think "aaaahhhh" means mommy...haha
17. Do you spank?
Not now obviously. But I was spanked as a kid, and I don't see anything wrong with it, so at the right age, I will consider it.
18. Do you stay at home or go to school/work?
(I'm going to copy the previous mom's answer, cuz it's so true for me and funny)
I would love to stay home with her, but until they start handing out free money, I have no choice but to work full time
19. Are you happy as a mother?
Happiest I have ever been in my entire life
20. Advice to other parents?
Enjoy it...enjoy every second and capture every moment by picture, scrapbook or memory..you'll regret it if you don't. Becuase before you know, she'll be all grown up. I'm already dreading that, I wake up everyday and hold her and tell her to stop growing. She grabbed her bottle today and stuck it in her mouth all by herself!! And she won't let me hold her in my arms as long as she used to...*sigh* time flies.

Great answers :) it's fun to find out some of this stuff about each other - so I think it's ok to steal - just this once.
Your answer to 20. is so true - I am still shocked at how fast they really do grow, it's like if I stare at her for a few minutes I can almost see her growing. It is so neat and so sad all at the same time, if that makes sense :) I am taking lots and LOTS of pictures :)
Nice to meet you!Â
Good luck getting your boy when the time comes. It was reversed for us, I ended up with 3 boys. 3 strikes you're out. Haha!
