Hey! Thanks for adding me. Its insane. I kept saying "its going to happen the first time" and considering im almost 40 and we were definitely not doing it the "conventional" way everyone sort of smiled and said "well im sure you will, but don't be disappointed it can takes months"
Even though i was saying it, i was still shocked when i saw the second pink line.
My partner was born and raised in Mamaroneck! Crazy!
Very cute pics and mmmmmmm salami!

Thanks for adding me as a friend, I enjoyed your profile too. Cheers to you for having the nerve to travel with more than one kid, we fly back to the Twin Cities to see my family regularly and it's hard enough with one little pooper.
Thanks Jennifer, looking round the Upper West Side (Manhattan Ave. bet. 102nd & 107th). My daughter will attend kindergarten this autumn in 78th St. or 93rd St.
