LOL. That is classic. The family pictures looks just like one of those you see from the TV ads from the 50's and 60's where everyone is all dressed up and heading for church or wherever.
About 10 years ago I was at a friend's house and somehow the topic of birth control came up. His wife said she was going to stop taking the pill because it caused her issues and they were going to start using the rhythm method. I jokingly asked if they were hoping for a boy or a girl and they insisted they were done having kids. Sure enough about 6 months later she was pregnant. This time when she had the kid she also got her tubes tied.
