Kidundated!: Can Loving Your Kids Be Creepy?

Kidundated!
Everywhere we look: little people!

About

Eric and Betsey Matas live in Minneapolis. They enjoy reading, writing and having children.

They were just innocently living their lives, having a couple of kids, then a third, and that's when the universe threw them a curve: twins.

But wait--there's more! They threw in a 5th baby at no extra charge. He's very handsome and seriously rocks a onesie.

Now, inundated with kids (or Kidundated!), they blog to share all the fun. And non-fun.

(PS- Both think they are funnier than the other.)

Can Loving Your Kids Be Creepy?

I have seen some crazy, over-the-top decorating in the workplace. Sometimes it seems like a Hello Kitty store exploded in a co-worker's cubicle. Other times, instead of retail decorations, people over do it with personal items like photos or photos 2.0, otherwise known as "pics."

Now I fear I am becoming that guy!

I've unpacked about 50% of my pics—mostly of my kids, but also of Betsey and I. I was so proud after I got the cubicle tape and got the pics organized on the cube wall. Then, this morning I had the fear: have I over done it? Am I less proud dad and more creepy decorator?

Here's the 50% view — one corner of my luxurious cubicle at my new job:

So, what's the verdict? Would you talk about me and my cube decor at the water cooler? Would you wonder when I will snap and shoot paper clips out of my nose?
