Taking off the Training Wheels

Well, we went ahead and did it... The training wheels are off. My wife and I are now entering uncharted waters. We are now not using any type of birth control... that's right, we are *Gasp* having unprotected sex, and actively (very actively if I don't say so myself) trying to get pregnant and have children. We are both rightfully nervous... we are both worried about screwing up any future children, by a poor job of parenting on our part. Man...just the thought.. the immensity of it all. In the years I have been with my wife, I have matured. Don't get me wrong, she didn't change me; She helped me to mature and become a better person, and I feel that I did the same for her. I have come a long way, but I still enjoy my freedom, and the ability to go, and do at the spur of the moment, all be damned. To the utter dismay of my wife... That is going to be be another huge adjustment, having to plan around a baby... having to worry about if someone can watch the baby.. hiring a babysitter, getting my mother to watch her grandchild.
I've been asked in the past what do I prefer.. boys, girls... Ultimately I would prefer boys, but also ultimately all I ask for is healthy and happy.
