It bugs me to no end, however, when pregnant women go on and on about the things they can't eat or do. Seriously, I have a family member who is 3 months pregnant. She says she can't eat lunch meat because of the possible bacteria. Okay, fine, but instead of eating a Subway sandwich with the rest of the family, she had us stop by McDonalds to get a big Mac and large Fries. Hmmm, you're also technically not supposed to have MSG, and that's in fried food, Plus, I don't believe the fries are really doing anything positive for your baby hun.

Be careful, I used to have all these fantasies about my daughter: shopping trips, pedicures, ballet lessons. But, you know what I got? A down and dirty, soccer playing tomboy who despises the mall and prefers not to bathe. ;) Don't get me wrong, she's still a little 'Diva' as far as I can tell, as she's fiercely independent and amazingly strong willed in good ways. I don't see her having much trouble getting her way in life. It's just that her way and my way are a wee bit different. holy cow! that’s a lot of planning already done!

Ha ha ha ha. It's more like a "when I have kids..." sort of thing but sometimes I don't add that "when" so it sounds like I have a daughter who is a pampered, home schooled, entrepreneur.
