Maybe this is a good thing...

I have 2 boys. Plus a hubby. So I have 3 boys. I decided the minute I found out Evan was a boy that there would be no more little babies for my poor little womb. I feel like I would probably have another boy, and not that there is anything wrong with that, I just can't handle more testosterone in my house. I'm really out numbered as it is. Plus let's face it, when boys are little they are more work then little girls. There is such a difference in my nieces and my sons. Night and day.

So because I am surrounded by boys, I often think that I desperately want a girl. So much so that lately we have actually mentioned adopting just so I get my little princess. I have been thinking more about it though and I'm not so sure this would be a good thing. I think I was given 2 boys for a reason. I don't have it in my to raise a girl. I would be so insanely over protective of a girl. How do I know? Simple. I am really protective of my nieces. My stomach twists into knots when they talk about boys. I can't STAND it when they wear make-up and I always beak at them for it. (One of them wears it a lot more then the other so said girl get's beaked at a little more). When one of their shirts slips too low I beak at them to fix it. One of them is wearing a bra.....that she actually needs. Someone pass me a paper bag because I can't breathe!!!!!! Another good sign I'm not ready for a daughter? I was at my sisters house the other weekend and my niece was seated next to me and was "surfing the net". Sisters BF says, "What are you looking at on there? Cute guys?" Well my niece snaps her head back from the computer, looks at me sideways and says "NO!!!!! Auntie would yell at me if I did that!!" Yeah....I would. Now go play with your Barbies and stop this growing up shit. I didn't say that but I wanted too. Instead I just said "Yeah I would!"

So, maybe I should count my blessings. I have been given boys because I would suffer from daily heart attacks if I had a girl.

  1. Yeah, I probably would too. Plus, as teens I would kill myself for sure!

    But just think about all the wonderful pink stuff, and glitter, and ballet shoes. Sigh...
