Babies, Round 2
As my lovely wife and I get ready to “really” start trying to have a second child, we’ve been acknowledging our fears about it.
In a big, vague way, of course we worry about how we’re going to afford “everything.”

Here are a few things I’m thinking about:
Adding a “Butch Bloggers” category. (And if you want to be listed, please leave a comment saying so!)
