I just had to chime in on this one. I was so disapointed when dh told me it
wasn't realistic for me to keep having babies and I said I would stop once
we had grand kids LOL. Unfortunatly due to space limitations I think we're
going to have to be done at 3, althogh we won't do anything permantly. If we
ever get out of our tiny little 2br. house I'd be pregnant with #4 as soon
as we sign the purchase and sale.<G>

Hi Sonia,
We too all sleep in the same room, but the over all space is still too
small. We already have the van though. Good luck to you also.
