Bret,
take some advice these guys have given you. It sounds like good advice, but don't let them get to you if you're happy and you're taking care of business. I work with a lot of college educated people that are 28-35 and they are single and still living at home because they can't afford to buy a house down here. Minimum for a dinky condo or house is over $200k. So, if you can afford the house, car and take care of your family all while being happy, then you are doing a hell of a job. Stay at home with the parents and save some money while you can. Last thing you want to do is move in with the girlfriend and kid too soon and be miserable while you try to get by if you can stay an extra month or two at the parents and be a lot better set up financially.
