Not at all! I actually game more now than I did before, even with a truckload of kids in the house. Obviously 'M' games require you to game when they are not around. Hence my need for a gaming Laptop. Lock yourself in the bathroom, with laptop, if need be. (I've never actually done that but it actually sounds possible!)
This thread should be encouraging though. Yes, having kids is work but it's so worth it. It's honestly the best thing I've ever done in my life. Having one is a complete doddle too. Once the second one comes is where the challenge comes in as you get used to balancing things. However, I strongly believe that children benefit tremendously from siblings, and once you 'get it' it's second nature. Past two it becomes easy again as you get into the groove. Our 4th was oh so easy to adapt to. If/when we have a 5th I believe it will be just as easy for us. (5 is the magic number for us. That's it. No more. People always say we have a handful; well then we will, literally.)
Flame On, don't worry about Modern Warfare II. Babies sleep a heck of a lot early on so there will be plenty of time for that and MWIII as well! It can be done.
