  I actually just had this conversation with my cousin last night. How parenthood makes a lier of you. You say you'll do all these things and won't do these other thingside but reality is very different. She has her two year old sleeping with them because of night terrors and has admitted to ice cream for breakfast.
  
  There's rarely a store trip where one or both kids don't get something. Thursday hubby was off work so we went to a couple stores. We made it DS's day with mommy. Hubby stayed in the car with DD and I took DS in the stores. We went in buy buy baby and got a tranquil turtle to try to replace his current soother (the battery cthulu) and ended up with snacks and a Thomas the Train book. He absolutely loves Thomas right now and adores this book, his first "big boy" book that isn't a boars one and the only one he doesn't abuse.
  
  Also after swearing I wouldn't crochet anything else because of not having time...DD has completely latched on to a blanket I crocheted for her while pregnant so I bought yarn and started another one following the same pattern (scaled down) for a spare. This is just this week.
  
  ETA I'm pretty sure I fall in move with hubby just a little more each time I watch him cave to the little ones. Seeing this big tough man just melt with love over our kids. Sexiest damn thing ever.

  I feel ya. My mom is always buying DS toys or clothes. I sent her a video of him in his jumperoo and she now wants to buy one for her house. Oh and my step-dad is already planning on buying 4 wheelers. Yes. Multiple ones. DH has a pellet gun for DS. Oh, and my mom wants a bigger house so DS can have his own room.

  My moms side of the family is fairly wealthy and bought her clothes from Calvin Klein and a  Nordstrom tutu for when she's 12 months. DH says he wants to spoil her too when she's a little older but he does order her a ton of clothes every other month or so. 
  
  I just dont want her to grow up thinking that she can get fancy things all the time, my husbands niece is like that. Spoiled and very stuck up. She's also a pageant girl. My SIL told me when I was pregnant that she was going to make DD into her next pageant girl and I just laughed and didn't say anything. But no. Thank you.

  Ds is spoiled rotten - we drove hours & got a hotel just to take him to see live jousting bc he is knight obsessed. I imagine dd will only be worse bc dh spoils my sd as well. For me that's ok bc I was the opposite of spoiled - as was hubs - so we are happy to dote on our kids. So long as they appreciate it I'm happy to do it!

  We're about 90% sure we are one and done because we want to be able to spoil her. SO has gone as far as to say that if we don't have a second we can it DD a new mustang when she turns 16 (that seems random until you know I was given a hand me down mustang when I turned 16 that both my uncles drove at 16). Slow down, dude, she's not even 3 months yet.

  When I was pregnant with DD, I swore to have no pink and no tutus. She is now 2 and her favorite color is pink and she loves tutus and dresses. Go figure.
