Over at Two Chicks In Pursuit of a Babe they opened their blog up to questions. I know when I was reading blogs prior to getting pregnant I was reading the pregnancy blogs, but I liked it when the author veered off path every once in awhile to shake things up. So what questions do you have of me? I may or may not answer them depending on how personal you get, or if an answer may cause WWIII. But, either way I'd love to hear from you and hear what you wonder about these 2 mommies and 2 daddies that are having a baby together.

I'd like to hear more about your religious faith (what church? for how long? were you raised in it? or did you find it as an adult? are both you and your partner active?) .... and about your friendship with the 2 dads and how cooperative your parenting will be, since yours is a pretty unique set up .... (did you write up a legal document like some people do with known donors? what have you discussed? will you and your partner be "primary parents" or all four equal? etc. xoxo
Yes I have a question. When you're pregnant does everything REALLY smell like bacon? ;o)
Lizzie, Wen and I attend Wesley United Methodist Church. We joined this church because it is one of few in town that is open and accepting of the LGBTIQQ community. It was the 2nd Methodist church in the nation to become and open congregation, 25 years ago.
Wendy and I grew up in the church, but not Methodist. Wendy started out Baptist and I grew up in a Pentecostal, Assembly of God Church, where Wendy later joined.
Although I had a crush on Wendy in HS, she was 3 years my senior and didn't notice me, we didn't connect with each other until my mom introduced us at church.
Faith is the most important thing in both of our lives. We are lay leaders for a Sunday night service at our church. Wendy is the speaker and God has truly anointed her with a gift of preaching. Our group reaches out to those who have been hurt by the church for being LGBTIQQ or who have never been involved in a church. It is amazing to see our group bridge the gap for people to return back to church.
We also met the two dads at church. We have modeled our style of parenting around another couple who have paved the way for us. The dads will be active as much as they want to be in our child(ren)s life. They are the dads. To keep everything safe and legal we do have paperwork that states Wendy and I are the legal guardians and are responsible for making all decisions and providing for him or her financially. In the event that something were to happen to both of us the dads would gain sole custody because they are the dads, and we feel it would be the easiest transition to go to their other parents.
I hope this answers your questions. Thanks for asking. :)
Anonymous, since I'm not the one who is pregnant I'll have to get back to you on the bacon one. But now you have me in the mood for bacon. Bacon, bacon! ;)
