Okay now this is impressive...
Here is a link to the article.
Most interesting paragraph written by the author (technically two):
"Kathy and Joel, a doctor, set out to have a big family.
This would not have been unusual, especially among Catholics, in the 1940s and 1950s, when my grandparents were in the throes of their own big-family-making-and-raising. My paternal grandparents had 12 kids. My own parents had five. I have three. We mirror the shrinking of family size over generations. "
Most interesting stat of the article:
"The Bessmer budget is $12,000 a month, not counting mortgage. "
Ready. Set. Discuss.

Fast Fact - Y - Y - Y, Why do I, do I LOVE Y!
Confession - Last night Lee and I watched one of E's favorite YouTube videos without her. Some of the Sesame Street videos she likes to watch are honestly pretty annoying but this one is definitely worth a watch but watch out the song will get stuck in your head and the Y guy is really cute!

Fast Fact - I Don't Look Preggo?
Today we went to close on the refi of our house/soon to be rental. E tagged along for the closing because well who doesn't want a toddler to help close on a house! Anyway we were signing (our lives away) and the lawyer looks at E and then looks at Lee and me and asks "So is this your only one?" I look at him and then Lee and I try and not look at him too strangely and say, "Another one will be here in less than a month"
Yes t-minus 30 days! I cannot believe it! I must say I was a bit flattered by the unobservant lawyer as it is a testament to my good eating and exercising regiment. Ha! Silly lawyer.
Editor's note - Lee said it would not be fair to note that the Land's End vest I was wearing could have been a factor in the lawyers perception of my prego-licious state.
