[QUOTE="Zinc03Cobra, post: 15606850, member: 12811"] I wanted kids around 30 as well, but the wife and I weren't on the same page 4 years ago. She's 4 years younger than me and wasn't ready to be a mom at 26.. But alas, 05/05/16 we were blessed with a 7lb 13oz baby girl. I didn't want kids in my 20s, but the moment I hit 30, something clicked and told me "HAVE BABIES." We planned, prepared, and made the decision. Our finances are pretty good so my wife is a stay-at-home mom now. She definitely misses work. Child care here in California can range from 1000 to 1700 bucks a month. We're planning #2 and want to ideally get pregnant in November/December for a late Summer, early Fall baby. Kids aren't for everyone. There are shitty parents and overall horrible circumstances kids have no business being involved with. Just be sure it's something you want. It's a lifetime commitment (to me) With that said, I love being a dad. It's a test of patience, a sense of humility, and the "I seriously have no idea what I'm doing, but here goes nothing." We recently moved back to our home town to have a support system in place. Nothing better taking those few hours to go see a movie or have a drink at the local brewery while the grandparents take care of our daughter. Just my 2 cents. I have no doubts you'll make great parents. It's really whatever you put into it is what you'll get out. [/QUOTE]
