"When are you going to have kids?"
"You're next!"
"We're waiting..."
We knew our lives would change forever when we started a family; we knew the responsibility that came along with it. And that's why we were in no rush to have children. We loved our freedom -- being able to do whatever we wanted, whenever we wanted.... spur of the moment day trips to some city we had never been to, checking out the latest brewery in our local "beery city USA", long weekend trips up north or even Las Vegas, and annual international trips to all inclusive resorts. We were having a lot of fun. But we also knew we wanted to share that fun with a family of our own.
We were told having children was a "different" kind of fun, and worth the 9 month pregnancy, labor pain, sleepless nights, spit-up everywhere, dirty diapers, endless screaming... and we decided to give the whole parenting thing a try.
In October of 2012 we took our "last" vacation to Mexico, and in November of 2012 we became pregnant with our first, a son, and this new, wild life began. And we were thrilled.
