When I see this picture, I maybe
sort of
kind of
get a liiiiittle bit
baby hungry.
{but wasn't sammy just the cutest as a toddler?}
The main problem is that we have a spare bedroom in our lovenest.
We use a little bit of it for storage, but mostly it's just an empty room, and every time I walk past I think of all the cute and chubby things that little room could hold.
Not to mention last night during date night when we saw a young, college-going couple quietly getting ice cream with a little baby girl sleeping in their arms. They took turns holding her and kissing her sleepy little forehead and oh dear me but I wanted one.
Nobody panic. I'm not getting too crazy yet {kind of}. This is not the time. There are degrees to be earned, and monies to be saved, and promptings to follow before it's time for that.
But just to be safe, I better make that spare room into a study room before I get out of control.
Ladies, am I the only one? Are there secret baby-resisting strategies that I should know about? Some sort of ancient art that unlocks powerful indifference to all things baby?
hahaha - yes i know what you mean. i never wanted baby boys, only girls, till i fell in love with Ben and saw pictures of him as a toddler! it gets even worse when you're around someone with cute little kids ... although i've heard a nursery calling is the best form of birth control ;)
ReplyDeleteoh da sweet baby Sammy. Don't worry, I was baby hungry before Nick and I even got married. The only thing that ever made me reconsider my baby-need-now syndrome was after the 500,000th time I asked Nick if we could have a baby, he just said yes out of the blue. And I was like "Oh wait....maybe I'm not ready yet" lol. Maybe I need to give that hint to sam though, not you. Thanks for sharing the picture though!

HAHA!! TOTALLY know what you mean.... and no, I have no baby-resisting strategies... Let me know when you think of some :)
ReplyDeleteCute baby Sam! WHEN the time is right, you guys are going to be great parents. And you will know when the time is right. Don't feel a need to hurry, you need a solid relationship between the two of you first--and believe it or not, that takes more than three months. :)
ReplyDeleteHaving a baby pretty much squashed my baby hunger. And then having a second one really beat the remainder to a pulp! It's only just starting to pick itself up and go on with life now. The best thing to do it to find a friend who has a baby and hang out with her. Then you can get your baby hunger fed and not have to actually have one yet!
ReplyDeleteAww, cute picture! Babies are so so cute. I think the best way to enjoy them is to play and play with other people's babies. When they start crying or having stinky diapers, you can give them back :)
ReplyDeletei work at kid's club in 24 hour fitness, and there are a few kids who REALLY make you want cute little babies, but then there are plenty to make it a good form of birth control as i am told ;)
