I'm praying for another boy, that would make 3 & 3. Her first OBGYN appointment is 8 days away.

We already have the new mini-van, got that back in July. In fact, I got a new car recently too.

Congratulations KC, when's it due? I'm getting another grandkid around the last of May, that'll make 3 for me. If you think kids are great just wait til you get grandkids, it's the best. You and the family take care and be safe.

You are a busy guy KC. Great news. These are the best years of your lives--you and your sweetheart. Happy New Year.

She's about 2 months along and her first OBGYN visit will be next Tuesday. Her doctor, who delivered all 5 of our other children, is going to be shocked.

I never said I was done having kids, that's just what she said... after number 4.

You are an old fashioned guy KC. I admire you and what you've done with your life.

rikytik -

Thank you! Many people don't understand why I enjoy having a big family. I'm asked all the time if we are Catholic, nope I hate to take on a denomination because I feel it don't matter as long as you believe in GOD and that his son was sent here to die on the cross for our sins so if we ask forgiveness we will receive salvation. Although, we are going to stop at 6 kids because I turn 37 in February 37 + 18 = 55 and I want us to be young enough to be a part of not only our kids life but all the grandchildren too and there should be lots of those.

My parents had two kids, me and my two year older brother. He went in to the millitary after high school and will retire from it. He married someone already with children so he will not have any of his own. If I had decided not to have any children of my own, my parents would not have any blood grandkids. I know it's our children's choice, after all it is their life to live but it makes me sad when I see parents that want to be grandparents and never get the chance. I don't want that to happen to me so I think the odds are with me that it don't. Many brothers and sisters as kids, teens and adults get in fights and don't speak with each other. I noticed after having our 3rd child that if two of them get in a fight and stop speaking one always goes to the 3rd child rather than be alone. After this happens the child that is now alone feels left out returns to make up and makes things right and the family is one again. We try to let our kids work things out by themselfs but if they don't, we make it happen! Nobody is mad at or don't speak to each other for more than 20 minutes. If I have to sit them down and have them stare at each other until what they are fighting about really don't matter anymore, I will. Life is too short to spend it fighting and money does not make you happy for long before you need to spend more to get that feeling back again. Love is FREE and worth much or than what money can ever buy, but it takes hard work as you well know, kindness, patience... you know the list.

I look up to you rikytik

The stories and pictures you have shared, priceless! Hats off to you my friend! Keep us updated, I love to share your stories with my wife. My goal is to look back each year and be happy with the moves I've made with GOD's help.

Here is the plan to spill the news to both sets of grandparents at the same time.

1. Give them what they think is a new years gift, only to be opened in 2007.

2. In the locked box is a food gift certificate for each parents favorite place.

3. A preemie diaper.

4. A baby boy announcement TIME: TBA DATE: Summer of 2007

5. Lock the box and wrap up as a gift.

6. Hide one of the keys in their house and call at 12:00 2007.

7. At midnight we each call our parents and tell them where to find the key.

If they try to open the gift before we call telling them where to find the key we know they will not get into it because the other key is locked inside the box. Here is a picture of the box as we put the plan together.

Yes, I'm the master mind behind this plan and I'm so sure it's a boy I had my wife use a boy announcement.

My wifes parents are watching all of our kids over night for New Years Eve while my wife and I leave town. In my wifes box we have a New Years gift certificate for both her parents and each of our kids along with the baby announcement. Just think both sets of parents are going to be up another 1-2 hours and not be able to sleep after finding out about the news.

YES, I'M CRAZY!
