so i won't lie. i really want to have kids. i'm looking forward to everything but actually being pregnant and not being able to drink alcohol or caffeine for like a year and a half. but i'm not trying to have kids yet. as much as i really, really want to, the number one reason i don't is actually quite simple (aside from the fact that i'm not married and my guy doesn't want kids until he's thirty). this is how much it costs per year on average to raise a baby in my state:
and this is how much money i have in my bank account at this very moment:
somehow, those two just don't quite add up to enough. and because i don't want my kid to eat cat food, and to actually have disposable dippers because i am not washing and reusing those things, i will hold off on the whole procreation thing. not to mention the fact that my insurance from work does not cover maternity, so all of that would be an out of pocket expense. and i am having the damn epidural, screw that "all natural" birthing crap. i want the drugs. and drugs are expensive. so until i can finally afford pop one out, you all have to endure my crazy cat lady side. all this baby love has to have some kind of outlet. now if only the cat would let me dress her up for halloween, then i'd be set.
