so we've been married for a few weeks now, (2 to be exact) and i feel like everytime i go somewhere or everytime someone talks to me about being married or ryan and I, babies always find their way into the conversation. "So when are you guys going to add a little one" or my personal favorite "you and ryan are going to have such gorgeous babies, so when are you thinking about having one." and as of right this second i want to say to all of those caring and loving, but extremely nosy and definitely way out of place people.
"ASK ME ONE MORE TIME, AND I MIGHT HAVE TO THROW SOMETHING AT YOU"
people, we have been married 14 days... 14 DAYS!!! give us some time to ourselves to spend time together and get used to this whole co-habitating thing. Trust me, getting a good nights sleep in the same bed as ryan is a chore; because well, he talks, pushes me to the edge of the bed, rolls around multiple times, snores, and sometimes- just sometimes decides to cuddle (which is my personal favorite)... IN NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM are we ready to throw a screaming baby in the middle of the night into that mix.
its great for those people who had kids right after getting married, im jealous really, because anyone that knows me knows that i LOVE kids, like LOVE them, if there is a kid under 5 in a room, i will run straight to them and forget about the adults. but in all seriousness ryan and i are just not ready- we are very much in love and definitely do want kids SOMEDAY, but right now its hard enough keeping a clean house, and doing OUR laundry, i just don't think a crying, pooping, screaming, pooping, adorable little bundle of joy is in our immediate future. (did i mention pooping)
and that was me venting, 'cause i almost lost it today.
WORD! Oh my heck you are adorable. I think that having babies is such a personal thing...and people won't shut up about it. EVER. "you started to soon" "you waited too long" "When's the next one coming (even though the one you have isn't even a year old yet)" And don't worry, when you do get pregnant, EVERYONE will touch your belly without asking and spout off advice and horror delivery stories until your ears bleed. It never ever ends. Just giving you something to look forward to... :D I'm happy you are so happy!
ReplyDeleteYou are both still young. Enjoy being newlyweds. Take your trips. Go on your cruises. Finish school. I will tell you, it's A LOT harder to do all those things when you have kids. Zane and I were older when we got married, I was 29 and Zane was 27. We had both lived our lives, experienced all the fun things we could think of. We had Hunter after being married for 16 months...but that's only because we were older and that is what we wanted. I know in a few posts back, you said you had a 5 year plan, stick with that 5 year plan. There is NOTHING wrong with having kids in your 30's (all 3 of mine were/will be born in my 30's) or even later in your 20's. ENJOY LIFE! DO ALL THE FUN THINGS YOU WANT TO DO BEFORE YOU HAVE KIDS! :)
