Well, my husband and I now have 5 month old son that the entire family adores. I'm listening to him talk to the little bears on his mobile above his swing as I type. He's a complete joy, and just an amazing baby. He sleeps through the night and usually has a smile on his face. He's so good in fact that I'm afraid it's all just a ploy and as soon as he hits the 2 year mark he will turn into the spawn of Satan. It's probably a trick on God's part to get my husband and I to have another baby. Maybe that baby will cause me to pull my hair out?
Speaking of another baby, my husband and I have decided to rely on Gods will, and I'm not taking my next set of Birth Control pills. Halfway through my last pack, I just REALLY didn't want to take them, and today I should have started the next pack and I just couldn't find the will to start it. My husband and I had a talk, and he's all for having another baby already (see above, our son is practically a saint, it's weird), so we will see if another child is what God has in store for us.
My other children (step-children) now go to their mothers every other weekend, with them likely beginning to go every other week sometime at the end of this year or next, so it would just be the baby and I every other week anyway. I think I can manage another little one thrown into the mix, I'm more concerned about the sitters than anything else. It's one thing for me to watch two little babies (my son of course will be over a year by the time the next one arrives), it's another for someone else to have to do it. I'm blessed that I have family willing to step in take care of him while my husband and I are at work.
I'm sure others will find my husband and I insane, that we are thinking about trying to have another baby while our son is so young, but we just feel it's time. I've been debating it for a while, and my husband has been hinting at wanting to have another baby. The next baby will be a little princess if you believe in the old wives tale of a ring on a string predicting the sex of your children. So we would have a little prince and princess.
I should really try to get on here at least once a week to update this blog, whether it be a recipe review of just the daily trappings of life. For now though, I'm going to go pay attention to my smiling little boy, who is looking at me with so much love in his precious little eyes
