Figuring out if it's possible to be even slightly domestic after so many years of not having to be.

People
It's amazing to me some of the things that come out of random strangers mouths - and from the people you know too. Paul and I have 3 girls and are very happy about and with them - YES WE HAVE 3 GIRLS AND ARE JUST AS PLEASED AS PUNCH!!!! I have never in my life heard more people say to both of us - "Wow! Three girls huh - YIKES!!! Guess ya'll were going for the boy on the third one and the old man just couldn't produce." Who in their right mind feels it's okay to walk up to people and say that??? Or we get - "What's wrong with you that you can't get that boy?" How about what's wrong with you that you'd say that to a person with their girls standing there number 1 and number 2 that you think it's ok to say that period. This has actually bothered me for years. People would say it to us when we had just 2 girls. Oh wow, 2 girls, Dad's going to be in trouble....things like that. People really need to think before they speak. Maybe we're meant to have a boy one day and maybe we aren't. Maybe we'll have more kids and they'll all be girls (which both Paul and I are fully prepared for) then we'd just have girls and that would be that. We'll take what we're given and as long as a baby is healthy and grows and thrives like it's supposed to what in the world does it matter if you have 50 girls or 50 boys and that's that. So to all the people out there who think it's ok to give your two-cents just think a little - just a little before things pop out of your mouth.

amen. some people have no common sense. i hate when people feel like they can give you advice. the other day someone made a comment about noah: "his hair would look better if you trimmed it a little." wtf! nobody asked her! i wanted to say "old lady, if you want a boy with a short haircut then dust off your cobwebbed cooch and have your own."
