Seriously. We are on vacation in Chris’ hometown right now, and watching 8mm home movies of Chris as a kiddo, watching him sing-song his ABCs and 123s was just about enough to toss me into full-on crazy “I want a baby!” mode. It’s a conspiracy, I tell you. Thank the baby Jesus I’m on my period this week, amen.

Don’t just babysit…do an overnighter…when one kid is puking…and the other kid has diarrhea…and they both keep you up all night. Then, the next day when you’re completely exhausted and have mountains of laundry with bodily fluids all over it, they’ll both feel fine and will want to run around the house and make loud noises, while you’re trying to catch up on all that sleep you didn’t get.

Lovely photo. And I only had that ovary smash for about 5 seconds after we decided to have Declan. And then it poofed away once I was pregnant.

I hear you. I just ot married, turned 40, and feel as though if I don’t try now, I’ll never get the chance. But then I visit my friend with 2-year old twins and I begin to think that not having the chance isn’t such a bad thing.

I’ve been yo-yoing all over the place with my baby desires. Some days I want a baby NOW, but then I wake up the next day and think how hard it would be to afford a shitload of diapers AND a trip to Prague.

Sigh.

I don’t know, but that is a beautiful picture.

This doesn’t just happen to the childless, you know.

My kids are 11 and 8 and I am pondering having a last baby. My days when they are at school are fairly free and they are fairly independent boys that no longer require me to burp them or help them on and off with their underwear.

Sometimes when I’m strolling past a gorgeous baby boutique I have an overwhelming desire to go in and make out with all the Moses baskets and itty bitty chucks and Mary Janes.

Then I remember the sleepless nights, diapers, spitups and food flinging and start second guessing myself.

It’s a puzzlement, yo.
