Hi all,
My name is JulyBride06 (I was married in July 2006 - original I know).
It's just my hubby and my Standard Poodle named Monty!

Hi JulyBride06... my name is Bleuberry. I was married in February 2006.
It's just me, DH, and our (chunky) Australian Cattle Dog "Bleu." Hence me being Bleuberry and the avatar.
Oh yeah... and despite the en Francais spelling, his name was being pronounced "Blue" long before he came to us, so we call him "Blue" not "Bleu"... and as such feel free to think of me as "Blueberry" even though it's spelled the other way.One day we may have kids via adoption, but that'll likely be years from now at the rate our government moves, so in the meantime, I'm working on enjoying life as a family of two... plus furball.

I am Gingy. It's me, DH and a 4 year old Beagle named Lacey. Married since 2006, we discovered on our third date that we were both on board with being a family of two (two humans, that is).
I think there will be many lovely animals in this thread!

We're a FOT! Fots? That just sounds like pretentious 'farts', haha.
Married since May 09, no plans for kids in the near future, but probably eventually. Our friends have started to pop them out, so it's starting to hit us that we're actually at baby having age, and that it's ok to not want them right now. We're in our late twenties.
We can't even be responsible for real pets I don't think, we have two fish Julio Frank and umm, the sucker fish who dies/gets replaced so often he's usually nameless. We'd get more, but our one angel fish is now ginormous and would likely kill anything else. They live to be like 10, so uhh, we're a two fish family for the next 5 years or so. But we're happy, we can leave them all weekend to go snowboarding and they're still right there when we get back.
I am really neither here nor there about the split etc. I'm really easy going and do not feel like the world/my world is ending. I have no problem going to Can Fam for recipes and I don't even hate the look of their forum.

Married since July 08. We have 2 cats (Aurora and Sophie). Since DH has 2 sons (who are 23 and 19) from a previous relationship, no plans for our own. I like my life the way it is and we travel a few times a year.
My username is because DH says I am a nerd and frankly, I'm proud of it.
I don't post in the CF area as much as I'd like but I do read it.

I'm LuckyGirl! Married since Sept 2011. We have one cat and are beginning our house hunting search. Maybe in the future we'll have kids. We're both open to it, but kind of have a "We'll see what happens" attitude. (If that makes sense.)
I'm punkbridetobe, should probably change that though just haven't bothered to, married in may 2010. User name is basically because I like punk music, but I like many other different genres as well.
No animals yet they don't allow them in our condo but we love them :(, and maybe kids in 3-4 years.

Hello all.

DH and I have been together for 5+ years, and I think I knew he was "the one" when I found out he didn't want kids either.

His reasons are that he doesn't want to pass on his "bad genes", and doesn't want to contribute to over-population...and as for me, I just have zero patience and don't think motherhood would ever be for me!
No pets for us...yet. We would love to get a dog, but not until we move to the farm property we hope to buy in the next 2 years or so. I want a Husky and/or a French bulldog.
I'm Rebecca... and I bet you can guess DH's name

Married Oct 2010, and have two kitties, Mittens and Bella. Love my fur balls, and we will always be cat people.
I don't post in the CF area, but read it from time to time.
DH doesn't want kids, and I want 1. So we will see what happens, but I want to travel and pay off the bills first, but if it happens sooner rather then later I'll take it either way

Hi. I'm Heavinlyn. DH and I were married in Sept 06. No kids, although not by choice. We have a crazy Australian Shepherd named Ozzy (ya we're not very creative), a cat named Storm but we just call her kitty. And about 15 fish that keep having babies on us.
I often read the CF thread but never participated. I'm not so good at keeping up with a large group of posters.
Hi, I'm Icing. My DH and I have been together for 10 years. 10 years ago, we both realized we had much in common, being CF was one of them. We do plan to have furry babies but even now, our lifestyle cannot even maintain a dog.
Nice to meet you all

I'm Tracey. DH & I have been together just over 15 years and married since September 2003. No kids for us (yet?) not by choice. We're going to go the route of taking it relaxed and natural and see what happens, kids or no kids we're okay with either outcome at this point.
We have two kitties and are just focusing on enjoying life. We plan to do a ton of camping this summer, some travelling this year (Montreal, San Fransisco and possibly an Alaskan cruise to boot).

We got married July 2010 and are childfree by choice. 1 dog - a black lab/border collie cross.

We are an FOT as well

CF not by choice, TTC for 2+ years, so maybe more pre-child than child-free, only time will tell I guess.
We have one furbaby, a maltipoo named Murphy. He's adorable and hillarious!
We were married in 2010

Nothing wrong with dressing up the dogs!!

I'm tojules, been married since 2005. It's us and two pound puppies, Sophie and Maggie. Dh and I were on the same page right from our second date...we don't like to share our toys, so kids didn't fit our lifestyle.

Besides, now being in the out of shape 40-club, chasing after the dog is hard to do with a glass of wine in your hand...can't imagine chasing after a kid.

Hi, I'm FriendsFirst... DH and I are a family of two... plus 2 spazz-ti-cats (Chloe... at around 10 years old isn't so spazzy, more just a generic grump... Lucy, who turns 3 at the end of next week is 100% spazz, though... and she sticks her tongue out and drools when she's happy... it's hilarious)... and some pseudo-koi (we can't afford real koi *pout*)
Married in 2003. Trying for kidlets since... umm... 2005. A.R.T., 3 confirmed pregnancies, 4 suspected chemicals, 6 more chances waiting for us. Safe to say, not "child-free" by choice

Hi! I'm Tracey. DH and I were married in Sept 2008, TTC'ing for a bit until our GP advised us not to, until I lost a lot of weight (like, half my person). After doctors, and specialists, and clinics and therapists, I am awaiting bariatric surgery, and will need to wait 2 years post-surgery to begin TTC'ing again. We are looking into adoption, but that's going about as fast as the surgery process!
So! Right now we are a family of 2, with one lady dog (Charlie), a cat (Izzy), and we are looking into another dog very soon (like Thursday!) I don't know if we will ever be parents, and are right now quite enjoying our FOT lifestyle

And, as requested ....
