It seems like a whole ton of people around me are having babies. I am not. I am okay with this fact. So I thought I would share some of my reasons for only wanting 2 kids.
Top Ten Reasons Not to Have Babies:
10) They smell.
9) They're small and could potentially get lost, stepped on or misplaced.
8) They have projectile everything. Both ends. Sometimes apart and sometimes simultaneously.
7) They don't do things when you want them to. (I.E. eating, sleeping, burping, pooping...)
6) They're poor communicators. They don't know how to tell you what is wrong and they are nosy about their needs.
5) Diapers.
4) Midnight feedings.
3) Breast feeding was never good for me. Who wants to sit for hours and feed a baby?? I have things to do, people!!
2) They cause a lot of worry. You are constantly worrying about them: day or night.
1) They're manipulative. They're cute and cuddly and small. You think that having one would be great. Then the above happens! They are so sneaky!!
---------------------------
Yes, this list is not supposed to be taken seriously. At the same time, I am so glad that I am not having another one. Once i went through each stage with Emma, I was so glad that I would not see that stage again.
Now I can just hold the babies and then pass them back to their mommies and daddies when they begin doing one of the above!! That is wonderful!

I guess I am far enough away from the baby intensity that I wouldn't mind having another one...er, maybe!
I don't they they smell, though (just the diapers), because what I remember loving the most is the sweet, lotioned smell of their skull(my baby's was a bald one and oh, so kissable)and skin. The worst thing I remeber was the midnight(and 3:00) feedngs and waking up.
The exhaustion part is what I reminding me as I write that nah..I guess I don't WANT a baby!! LOL! You are right!! ;-)
Two children--a boy and a girl is perfect.
After Jonathan was born, I knew that two were enough for me to handle and yet as he passed each milestone, I felt an incredible sadness. Everyone deals with these things differently, I guess.
