Can I hide until Jan?

This weekend I was asked by two of DH's old frat brothers asked when I "would start popping out little ones". "Do you really care?" is what I wanted to say but I always say when DH stops acting like a child himself I will consider it. Then one of them proceeds to tell me how he can't wait to get his wife pregnant and how he is shooting it up in her so if she doesn't want kids yet she better provide the birth control. Thanks for the description. She is still a total party girl and partaking in actives that no one considering getting pregnant should be doing! Hell, no one our age should be doing. I don't claim to be a saint but I reserved all my craziness for my early 20's. So...I'll expect her pregnancy announcement by Christmas b/c that's how life works!

Is anyone else afraid to open Christmas cards? Every year we get a few "we're pregnant" announcements inside the Christmas cards. Let alone all the baby and kiddo pics. This year I think I just might display the sealed envelopes. If anyone asks I'll just say we are waiting to open them until Christmas morning b/c we are skipping presants to save for IVF #2 if this one fails. Which is pretty much the case! This one will pretty much wipe out my insurance $ and I just don't feel right spending money on Christmas knowing we could need it. Which just makes me sad about the holidays all together.
