Christina and I both always wanted three, even before meeting each other. God willing and everything goes well with Olivia's birth, that will put us at two, including Amelie. Olivia was a "suprise". We wanted our children close together, but not THAT close together (it will be just under two years apart). Maybe in about 4 or 5 years when we "forget", we'll go for our third and likely final, but even stopping at two would be OK. Both Christina and I grew up with one other sibling (her sister is about 4 or 5 years younger, while mine is 10 years younger) and we always thought it would be nice to have a third. In this day and age though with both parents having to work (in most cases), the idea of having three kids is a bit daunting, now that we're actually living the married with kids thing. It will be so wonderful though teaching my girls about all of the classic technology and to hopefully instill in them an appreciation for both new and old.
As for the "castle" part, I have to agree there. I'm more a homebody than anything else. People can have their trips and travel and what-not, but I'm content enjoying being at home with all my stuff. Of course, my wife doesn't necessarily agree with that, so I will be traveling in the future... ;-)
