Field Trip! I'm posting at Light Refreshments Served today

Hi nice people! I'm over at Light Refreshments Served today. Come on over and decide if 4 is the new 7. (And if you feel like it, leave lots of comments saying I'm awesome, so they'll invite me back again someday.)

Nice, you have officially arrived. I haven't had any official connection with Light Ref., but Hailey's good friend is a regular there and I am discussed for my discovery of the Blissful Brownies.

Awesome, I think you are right. For a multitude of reasons, I totally agree with the car seat situation, where would you put all of those kids. And the world, you can't let your kids outside so they are just "bored" inside. But the most important thing is that my mom said that you have to have an even number of kids so that no one gets left out on the rides at Disneyland, we just went with my four and that's the truth. ;0), so if you have the 5th, you'll have to have the 6th, keep that in mind!!! I agree with you though, it's no ones business but your own, and I know when I am older I will wish that I had more so that I can have more grandbabies. YIKES, I graduated in '91 too, I shouldn't be talking about grandbabies.

Loved your post Kelly...I had a conversation about this exact thing with my friend a few weeks ago...I think that a person should know their limits and do what's best for them and their family...just like you say. FOr some that means 4--the new 7...FOr others, more or less. I love your cute wit!!

I think you have the MOST comments ever, so I declare it a HUGE success!

I'm convinced it has everything to do with the energy crisis. Up to four you can fit comfortably in a vehicle that doesn't burn too much gas and won't get you funny looks when you unload at the Target. But cross that line, and move on over into five, well that's a whole different horsey, there. If you've got room in the mini, then all the seats are taken and you are out of the carpool--no more friends for anybody. And it not, it's time to upgrade to an embarrassment-mobile.

It's all about the cost of a gallon of gas--4 is the ceiling.

Hilarious post! Have the fifth kid and when people raise eyebrows, tell them you took one of Brangelina's off their hands cause they just couldn't cope no more.

Good job kelly!

Gini said...

OH Kelly.. if I ever heard "is it in the water?" again I thought I would take someone out. It was either that or "don't you know what causes that?".. most of the old ladies said,"bless you" tho. Well worth all of the throwing up!

I loved your article... and you are SO right.

I had trouble logging in at your guest post place----cuz I'm smart like that.

But I gotta say 4 is MY new 7. I come from a family of 12 and I always knew that was large. And I used to think I wanted to repeat it---but the older I get, the smaller that number gets:) I'm thinking 4 is pretty fantastic these days.

So I'm a total loser and couldn't leave a comment on your actual post- but I loved it.

We had a girl and then a boy and then MY OWN GRANDMOTHER said, "Oh, now that you have both, you won't need anymore kids." And when I was stunned she said, "Well they dont' come any other way!" And then I said, "Grandma, they come as different people!!" Ok, so I said that in my head....later....after coming out of my shocked stupor.

Now we have 4, and I don't think I'm quite done either (but my body is, so this is a dilemma to be solved on a different day...)

I just got an iPhone today for my birthday. And I would really like to know how to get ringtones on to the phone from my iTunes. Can anyone help?!?!? Thanks. I heard there was a website that you could get phones and edit them and whatever you needed to do to get the 30 seconds you want. Please Help!
