The 17 Bottles Of project began with Urs and Sig and a bunch of other people in 1999. Unfortunately, the original, in a blue spiral notebook, has vanished. It was a fun project, though, so we're starting over. Hopefully this one will be a bit harder to misplace.
2011 UPDATE: Word on the streets is that the J.Mo. has located the notebook and has it in her possession. We'd love to see it some day...

I know -- it reminds me that, though I really DO like children quite a bit, I have made the right choice in deciding not to have any.
Reading Lisa's status updates also makes me very tired. :)
Reading your comments & updates is like a breath of air not filled with the stench of poop, vomit, or peanut butter & jelly.
Sometimes my job is tough, & I'd list my kids on CraigsList if it were legal, but honestly I have never felt so totally satisfied and happy with my life. I don't want to forget the little things that moms forget when their kids are grown. It annoys me to read blogs & status updates that make motherhood this romanticized version of reality. It's also annoying when older moms tell me how much they miss this newborn/toddler/preschool age. Sure they miss PARTS of it, but pretty sure no one wants to willingly/happily clean bodily excrements from places it shouldn't be!
The more babies I have I think an ob nurse would be awesome, and being a teacher is less & less what I want to do - maybe cuz I teach 24/7?!
I've never been around babies - ever. My brother came already 3 and I have no cousins or anything. So your posts are really an educational experience for me :) But if we breed it'll just be once.
Erica, I would laugh my ass off if you ended up with twins or triplets.

Nah, I think Erica should be the next Octo Mom. If it's far enough down the road, she can hire Lise to be the nanny.
That's what selective abortion is for.
Do you think you'd do selective reduction down to one if you were pregnant w/twins?
Not for natural twins. But for the multiple births that are created by implantation of embryos...hell yes.
Actually, I read a study about the risks of selective reduction compared to the risks of carrying twins to term, and I was surprised to discover that one might be more likely to lose the pregnancy by carrying the twins (8-10% nationwide average of spontaneous twin pregnancies miscarried) than by reducing the twins to one (the study looked at 52 twin-1 reductions and just one ended up miscarrying, 1.9%).
Not conclusive evidence by any means, but food for thought.
