It's not a disruption, it's a change. It's not like you're going to go back to having no kids.

Well, you can't keep chasing them around with a coat hanger but you can always setup a camping accident or something. Think possitive!

I've got 3. 2 boys and 1 girl. For those of you that don't have any children, be prepared to start sacrificing on the toys you love. Don't get me wrong kids are great, but boy are they expensive. I used to upgrade at least once a year and now it's once every 2-3 years. My big screen 1080P TV keeps being moved to the back of the queue. You've got to love em though. :)

Definitely sacrificing, sometimes literally.
About 3 years ago, my now 7YO son wanted to watch a DVD. He put it in, changed the video to DVD, but somehow managed to switch the audio to something else (with no active signal). He turned up the volume. Then he turned it up a little more. Repeat until volume is at infinity. Then he looked at the receiver and saw that the audio setting was not on DVD, so he pressed DVD ... at least it was loud enough that he won't ever do it again.
The next week, I replaced that nice receiver (which survived and is safely tucked away downstairs) with a cheap unit geared for stupid abuse (I traded an old microwave for it, so nothing out of pocket) and his twin sister did exactly the same thing.
The third kid never got a chance ... audio through TV only until I upgrade once I get my HD ... hey, Father's Day is coming ...
Cheers.
Oh ... that was 3 kids ... 7YO B/G and 4YO B.

Seriously, upgrading kids gets expensive.
