ok its your world you can have everything as you want it money is no object house size is no object dh says yes to whatever you want, you can have as many children and whatever gender you want. paint me a picture of your world.

i'd keep 3 bed house but maybe have a playroom and a study, we have 3 children the 2 we already have and another baby girl, i'd be able to run a business from home. simple life suits me

I'd have maybe 5 kids, 3 boys and 2 girls. We'd have a awesome yard that had a big garden, play jungle gym thingy, and flowers all over. We'd have nice neighbors with kids our ages.

I'd have a big old family with a big house, DH could work from home and I'd write books. Dreamy, huh?

Three kids, Reme plus two others, one of each gender
We'd have our underground home with geothermal heating/cooling
I'd have a large garden and I'd grow crops that I can can/bottle for the winter for foods DH loves.
We'd have solar panels and a small wind turbine to help us rely less on external companies.
I'd have a killer craft room which I'd use to run a small business.
We will keep some goats and maybe some guinea fowl.. not for consumption, but to help with yard work.

Umm.. even when money's no limit my goals don't change much. LOL.

I might try and talk DH into being a foster parent. I'd also like to maybe foster cats and other small animals (no dogs, dh won't allow).

OH and I'd have a permanent cleaning person

Our house would be on the property where a current house is but with a little more land than we've got now. The house would be 4 bedroom, 3 bath house with an office for the computer desk & my bookshelves; a weight room for DH; a spare room for the game systems with a couch, also be where our nephews could sleep when they spend the night. It would have a big grassy backyard. I'd be able to keep my flowers alive.
I would be a SAHM to our 2 kids, boy and girl with a second boy on the way. DH would have his car, a new Nissan Z, and I would have my Nissan Armada. We would still have a boat but of course it would be newer and a little bigger.

Well it never hurts to dream.

Lets see, we would live in a big old farm house, with a HUGE property. we would grow all our own veggies, and have animals, but were really rich so we have people who take care of the animals and all the labour on the farm.

I have a cleaning lady too, so my house is always spotless. DH takes care of the fincial stuff, we probably sell some of our produce and meat, and i take care of the kids. We have 4 kids, 3 boys and a girl. I homeschool them, and have them enrolled in lots of extra curricular things

We would live in a BIG HUGE mansion, with a decorator and a housekeeper. We would have AT LEAST 5 bedrooms, 4 kids and I would be pregnant all of the time. :-P I would have a successful online shop and DH would have a job at the local AFB making good money.

I would get a house that is just a touch larger -- maybe one-two extra bedrooms with a finished basement and that was totally updated.

I would have four kids total -- DS, 2 girls and 1 more boy.

I would quit my job and be a full time SAHM. And I'd live next door to all my other Mommy friends so we could easily have play dates with our kids and socialize.

Annnnnd I'd buy myself more patience and more sleep. Hey you said ideal world, right??

Irish_Wristwatch · #10 February 7th, 2012, 07:22 AM

ya my kids would sleep all night too, that would be amazing and i could eat all the junk food i wanted and stay thin

Memi · #11 February 7th, 2012, 10:10 AM

Ohhh yea, add me some magic metobolism to the list too!

With no restrictions, I would love a big beautiful eco friendly, as as self sustaining as possible home with 4-5 bedrooms and an office, depending on the number of kids total, I would like one, maybe 2 more kids...( as I type that, I kinda cant believe I said maybe 2... and why are twins suddenly sounding ok to me??) I want a girl, of boy/girl twins. I want each kid to have their own room, my hubby to have his own office, and Id like a craft room. And an AWESOME kitchen with enough room for everything I could want to do. Ive always wanted a mother-in-law apt in the back, I could use it for my craft room, or a guest room, as needed. I would have a green house and garden in the back yard as well.

Lets see, one of my lovely dream homes would be nice, plus a vacation house in CA (Malibu or San Diego). We'd have one more kid, a girl, for a grand total of two kids (even in an ideal world I couldn't handle more), and maybe a second doggie. We'd never have to work long hours, or go in on our days off. And we'd be legally married in every state, and every country.

Hm, I can't think of much else.
