Spinoff... what will your kids have that you didn't

Not material things (toys, etc..). I mean experiences.

Jordana will grow up wiht her cousin. My neice is 10 months older and they get together alot. Apparantly my neice runs around the house saying "Nana Nana" (Her way of calling Jordana). My neice loves her so much- its so cute. She hugs her and makes nice.

I didn't grow up with cousins. My dad was an only child and my mom has 1 sister. My first cousns live in Paris and the oldest is 20 (I'm 30).

Same here....Kerri already has 8 cousins she will grow up around...and countless aunts and uncles and two sets of grandparents

I didn't have any of that..grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins all lived in Ireland....it was just my mom, dad and brothers growing up.

Re: Spinoff... what will your kids have that you didn't

O.K., I know I wasn't suppossed to put material things, but I have to list a few:

1) The Barbie Dream House!!!!!! If I have to beg,borrow or steal- Ava will have it if she wants it. I think I asked for it 4 like 10 straight years!!!!!!!

2) We will buy movie theatre popcorn- not sneak it into the theatre hidden under our coats!!!!!!!!!

Grandparents! I'm so excited that Luca is going to get all of that love. My last grandparent passed away when I was 8.

ETA_ I asked Dh this question last night and he said "his own identity." DH is a twin and as much as he loves it, he's very happy that our son won't have to share everything.

Family vacations at least once a year. That is the only thing we didnt do and even though we were never deprived I was always jealous because my friends got to go and we didnt.
