Allow me a moment...

Since when is it OK for anyone to feel the need to comment on my family structure? Where do people get off thinking I care whether they think we should be done having children just because we have a boy and a girl. Here was the scenario:

At the commissary. Adam has Nolan in the cart unloading the groceries onto the belt and I am pushing Georgia in the stroller.

Women behind us: "Is that a baby girl?"
Me: "Yes, she is" beaming down at our new addition
Women: "Now you have one of each so your done right?"
Me (head cocked sideways, confused at her brashness): "Well, no actually."
Women: "You are crazy! Back in my day sure have 10 but in todays time? They are so expensive. You guys are crazy"
Me (really pissed, blame it on the hormones): "Well last I checked we were paying for them."

I turn and walk away while Adam finished up paying. Seriously?!?

I do feel slightly better getting that off my chest. Thanks.

I wonder if it was the same lady that said Maddie looked like a boy!!! Ha ha! You should have told her you were going to go home and start trying to make baby #3 right then!

What else are you supposed to do with money? You can't take it with you!

Ahhh you met somebody with zero social skills. One of those people that have no clue how they come across. All I can do is feel sorry for them. So don't sweat it, she probably has no idea.

Who cares what you do with your money? You and Adam make such beautiful babies, continue to decorate the world with as many as you want. Congrats on the new baby she is just as pretty as her mommy.
