I couldn't just do nothing. <br /><br />After that with my other kids, I had no maternity leave cuz I was then working as a full-time mom, and we all know there is no vacation time, benefits (other than spit-up and poop, and googly-beautiful unsolicited smiles from the babies), sleep opportunities in that job with a newborn.<br /><br />How close are you??!! <br /><br />Oh, and in terms of gaining a daughter, just wait. Don't say I told you so, but I'm telling you now... if she's anything like Diva, she'll give you a run for her money... But they are the most precious things. I tell her daily that I'm so glad I got to have a daughter, even though she threw the absolute worst imaginable tantrum last night all because hubby stirred her chocolate milk.<br /><br />Tragic.<br /><br />Good luck with the upcoming birth!MaNiC MoMMy™https://www.blogger.com/profile/14038801888210803955noreply@blogger.com
