Okay, so we were off by about $9,350 (I guess now, more than ever, we really do want twins). We're currently researching our financing options (Dave is searching the couch for loose change).

Oh yeah, you better get at LEAST twins outta this deal. Maybe even triplets or quad.
Think of it this way, all of your friends know exactly what you want for Christmas and birthdays! THANK YOU!!
NO MORE UGLY chip and dip platters for you!!! You get IVF donations all the way!
I don't even know how much $20,000 is... I may just have to buy you muliple cocktails before you get pregs, and every time we hang out from now til 2020.
Definately start a baby fund. I'm sure friends and family will chip in. Do like a Dave+Emily-a-thon. Jerry Lewis has nothing on you!
Oh - anonymous said was Shannon!
