my name is Carla and I'm 25, from Michigan. Married to a hard-working guy named Joe; we got married in 2009, and we have 3 little boys - our most recent in April 2013, so it's been a hectic 4 years...lots of work, little time. I'm a stay at home mom and I joined Baby Gaga to connect with people who are like me and understand people like me. Although I am happy in my life I guess you could say I feel a bit of an early-life crisis. I have a close group of friends, but out of the 5 of us, I'm the only one with children (only 1 other is married). They all have college degrees, jobs, and social lives (I have neither LOL) and sometimes I feel a little left out. Although they do include me everything it's obvious we dont have as much in common as we used to. But I wouldnt trade my life for anything - I love my kids to death and my husband is a great father, a great lover, and a great provider. We of course have our moments of tension (sometimes too frequently) but in the end we always talk about things until they are worked out.

I'm the oldest of three (I have 2 younger sisters), so raising boys is a totally new and challenging but fun experience. My husband is of course in paradise; he's a former pro football player turned construction business owner and a house full of boys is all he's dreamed about.
