Surprise!

Warning: The following information does not have anything to do with anything--I just think it's funny. Hope it makes you chuckle.

So there's this family named the Duggar Family. They are famous because they have 17 children (all conceived by the parents, no adoptees, no twins/triplets). S-E-V-E-N-T-E-E-N children! (Oh yeah, and they all have names that start with a "J".)

The Today Show invited the entire family to come to New York on Mother's Day to be interviewed and gawked at by all the slack-jawed viewers like me. At the end of the interview, the Duggar parents announced that they had a surprise for their children and for the viewers...they are expecting another baby!

Well, of course they are! I mean, isn't that the most un-surprising surprise ever? It's like they said, "Hey kids, today is Wednesday. And I've got a surprise...tomorrow's Thursday!" I mean, the woman has been preggers for almost 152 months of her life. It would have made my day if all seventeen of their kids had responded in unison, "Duh."

Instead, all the kids acted excited, even though you know that inside at LEAST one of them was thinking, "Mom and Dad have GOT to stop having sex." One of them had to be thinking that--the odds are in my favor!

Signs that you have too many children:
1. Your last name is Duggar.
2. You wanted to name all of them after Bible characters, but you have used all the normal ones (Rebekah, Noah, Sarah) and you and your husband are now trying to choose between Methuselah and Mephibosheth.
3. You go into labor as often as your husband goes to work.
