Ski diving or bungee jumping?

None please. I'm deathly afraid of heights. Even going up a lot of steps that I can see through the back terrifies me.

Do you ever wish you were a SAHM?

In theory, yes I do. Pumping at work is extremely difficult as a teacher but I choose to do it for the first year.

I wish I could SAH, but keep my income and go back to work when the kids are all in school so that's not really practical.

What is your ideal family size?

If I didn't have to worry about money or space, I would love four kids. But realistically I think we are done after this one.

Ha, I'm here too. Keep paying me and I'll stay home! Oh, and still send the kids to daycare at least part time

Honey mustard, I'll basically put it on everything

I have three pets. All rescues. One pitbull, one boxer pit mix, and a cat. DS loves them all!

Confession- I'll be sending DS to DC three days a week while I'm on maternity leave. I don't feel bad about it! He thrives on routine and I need it for my sanity

If income and your qualifications weren't an issue, what would your dream job be?

[mcktymck]

Yaaaassssss, another Vampire Diaries fan!

Damon or Stephen?

Do you miss Elena or are you glad she's off the show?

Have you tried Red Robin's fries with their poppy seed honey mustard?

You said Christmas was your favorite holiday. Do you have any special traditions for the holiday?

No guilt necessary, DD will be going full time. I would lose my mind with both.

Damon or Stephen- it really depends on what season. I LOVE Stephen with Caroline. I would say in team Damon for Elena

I do miss Elena. Mostly because I don't like Damon without her.

As for Christmas- we don't have any traditions yet. Maybe as DS gets older we will start something new

I'm not sure I would pick a different career. I wish it paid better, but I do love what I do. As corny as it sounds I love teaching.

[rungirlrun]

tootsie and melody330 - Don't feel any guilt for sending your older kid to daycare while on maternity leave! I would if I could. I think that is one advantage working moms have over SAHM when a 2nd child comes along. I have no place to send DS or any family in the area - I'm going to go crazy with 2 demanding little ones! At least DS will start preschool in Sept. It's only 2 days week for 3 hours, but it will probably feel heavenly!

[rungirlrun]

And I'll ask a couple questions too - for some reason, I didn't see this post until tonight.

Favorite sports team?

Assuming you were born with natural talent and had the potential to be really good, what would be your ideal sport to play?

That's okay! DS had a night terror so I'm up anyway

I don't have a favorite sports team. I love to watch soccer and I don't mind who plays. Although I'm partial to woman's US team!

My ideal sport would be soccer. I played for most of my life until college and I'm sad I don't play anymore. I miss it!
