Questions
1. Will playing laser tag with the cat ever stop being fun?
2. Will I ever stop peeing my pants?
3. When will this feeling of being scared shitless about being a mother of two end?
4. Why do I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop in this pregnancy? I will not feel safe until I have this baby girl home with me.
5. Will companies ever make bras for women with different boob sizes? And make them affordable? Warner and Bali, I'm looking at you.
6. $12.99 for an infant bath towel? What the fuck? Does the hoodie part actually cost that much extra to sew on? My towels don't cost that much.
7. Is there an easy way to clean dried juice off of a keyboard? I'm really sick of the 3 and 7 keys sticking. Do I just have to give up and buy a new keyboard?
8. Will I ever get to travel to Scotland?
9. Why does the dentist scare the crap out of me?
10. Will fart jokes ever stop being funny?
11. Will I ever be able to compose decent blog posts?
12. Will our fucking neighbor's cat ever stop pissing on my front porch?
13. Why does Plurk insist on having Karma? What a twatwaffle.
14. Will using the word "twatwaffle" ever make me not giggle like a prepubescent boy?
15. Is anyone else excited about the return of American Idol? Or am I just an effing loser? Wait, don't answer that.
#1--Oh, my boys would love that.
#2--I hope so. I pee mine often enough.
#3--When baby arrives. I enjoyed motherhood the most the 2nd time around.
#4--I felt the same way through all 3 pregnancies.
Let's skip to the end, LOL. I'm the loser--I've never seen American Idol!

Uhmmmm....
I'm still waiting for the other shoe to drop too and I'm actually pretty close to bring home a baby. I won't be even a little bit relaxed until I get to hold him and have him safely here.
Also infant bath towels are never big enough anyway!

Dont worry, some day #3 will be replaced with "When the hell are they moving out"
Great list.....when my kids were babies i bought oversized towels and stitched a hand towel to it...my sister also made bibs out of towels for me...they were huge, the kids never got dirty eating....it was a hell of alot cheaper, and absorbent.

I agree with Kila, I enjoyed motherhood so much more the 2nd time around, maybe it was because I had lived and learned from the first. Not that you didn't enjoy it the first time but I was more relaxed with the 2nd. 2 is a breeze 3 sucks ass. The age diff you will have will be really helpful.
My oldest is looking fwd to Idol. I'm only not as excited due to the time suck it will be, and I can't help but get hooked.

I was going to answer all of the questions, but I don't have the energy.

love this list of questions! You'll do great when baby girl comes home. The scariness of dealing with two (one always has to wait!) is replaced by the calmness that everything your newborn does won't freak you out with the second kid.

The answer you seek is no. Hell no.
There. Are you better now?
