To Snip, Or Not To Snip....

Whew! Things have been super crazy around here lately.... But I finally find myself w/ a moment to spare for you fabulous friends! Okay, honestly, I found a new book series and for about 2 weeks I devoted myself to them and have read through all 8 books almost 3 times now. Now that my short-lived affair w/ Charlaine Harris' vampire novels has come to an "almost" end I can fill you all in on our current situation.
We have 3 awesome kids... We love our kids... If we could go back and do it all over again we would... That being said, we are done having kids. :) We feel like our child-baring years have come to a close and would like to do something permanent about that decision. Our "current situation" is this: I think Ryan should get a vasectomy since it is (a) cheaper, (b) safer, (c) easier, and finally... I gave birth to our 3 kids & feel that my body has put it's dues in. However, Ryan is a little apprehensive about allowing a doctor to cut into his tenders and perform the necessary procedure to sterilize him. I use the phrase "a little apprehensive" to spare his ego :). Anyway, if any of you have any experience w/ sterilization procedures feel free to send your comments, advice, etc. Also, I know this is a touchy subject for some people. Some of you may strongly disagree w/ altering our body's abilities to make babies and feel that is something only God should have a say in. I personally am of the persuasion that God gave us wisdom and expects us to use it in all major life decisions, including the size of our families.
And, sorry but no pictures this time!!! :)
