The Snip

Alan has agreed to have a vasectomy.  No so much agreed as volunteered to. He figured it was the least he could do since I had 2 c-sections delivering our boys. While our plan was originally for 3 kids - we now know 2 is all we can handle.  It's all we want to handle.  We love our boys dearly, but when we originally said 3 - we didn't have any kids and know what all parenting entailed.

I've been harping on him to please call the doctor for the last month.  It's getting to be the end of the year and we met our deductible with the delivery so I'm telling him to please call the doctor.  This is the actual e-mail exchange we had last week.

This is what you get after being married 9 years I guess.

That’s the information for the urologist for you to call.

You know what dear – you won’t have to call the urologist because I’ll give you the vasectomy myself.  What do you think?

Appointment on Nov. 3rd. 2:50pm. I will be getting paperwork in mail beforehand. Not sure if its a consult or actual surgery. Figure that out when I get there I guess. Doesn't matter to me either way.
