Cold Feet

I just read an article today that says that a child born in 2007 will cost $298,680 to raise it through its 18th birthday. This price quote doesn't even include college or wedding costs... YIKES!

Where was this article nine months ago? Weren't all the costs supposed to be disclosed before completing this deal?

Maybe we won't have the baby tomorrow, I don't know if we can afford that. I guess we'll just have to put it off having "Baby San" for a while until we've saved some more.

Chaos, in the hospital!!!! Yeah that means they are in your space and trying to stay in it while they squeeze you out or is it stay in their space and get in yours. The three hundred thousand dollars includes new cars at 16 and never eating at home oh and cell phones in elementary school. Also allowance for doing anything at home other than my space and msn.

Tim- You will need to allow for the extra expense of weddings as the Kuehnes are all girls. Haha

Hi Morgan - Hi Tim !
Congrats ! I love to read your entertaining stories & love to see the pics of everyone. The girls are all beautiful. It was out-loud laughter at the sticker on the little bum.
Smiles to you from Kansas.
