BABY HUNGRY!!!!!

you guys!!!

Yesterday after my run, the orange spray tan misted over my teensy body and I realized, WHEN TO HAVE ANOTHER KID IS STRESSING ME OUT!!! I'm buying a ton of stuff on etsy to put in our extra garage just incase. It's like, I want to get preggo, but I want to plan it, and I have tried here and there but I think I wasn't visualizing it bc I just wasn't ready, and I now I want to wait because it seems like everyone else is preggo and I like to be different and not do things just bc their trendy, but I want to be a young mom and if I wait much longer I'll be all nasty old and saggy, but at the same times, I HATE getting fat, but if I got preggo right now I would have a baby in the spring or summer again, which is just a hard time of year to have a birthday because you don't want them to be the runt of the class, would way rather have them go to 5 years of preschool and turn 8 in kindergarten so you can claim there just naturally super advanced, BUT, I also don't want to have a baby in the winter bc of RSV's and looking fat in Christmas pitchers.

WHY DOES MY LIFE HAVE TO BE SO HARD???

I just found your blog and I'm laughing so hard...so sad that I can put my sister-in-law's face to your words...

DOn't have a winter baby! It is so bad how people stay hone from church "for the safety of the baby"
excuse me, what about their eternal safety?

I think you're going to have to move back out to the mission field if you want to find a time when no one else is pregnant. It happens all the time here so you can pick whichever season you like best.

Jules AF said...

Well, maybe you'll move to another state one day, and your kids wouldn't be the youngest...

Oh wait, no, you'd NEVER move away and subject your children to the mission field!

dharvey said...

ROFL !! That's gotta be the world's best run-on sentence :-) Agree w/ you for rills- very important that they turn 8 in kindergarden, so that they can be better than everyone else in school sports and stuff. XOXO, love you.

Rebecca said...

Haha! Those dang Christmas pitchers. Love it! I admit, I'm guilty of stressing over what time of year to plan my babies' birthdays.

Chelsea said...

This is actually a had problem to figure out. Answer, adoption. It's like totes popular right now, all the clebs are doing it.

Emily said...

Just time the next pregnancy like you did with the twins. That pregnancy was obviously perfect. And then you can have lots of birthday parties in the same month and get to complain about how hard it is to have so many darling parties to plan.

Jaime Lynne said...

Wow! You hit the nail on the head and rolled many of the women I know up into one tiny, baby hungry persona. Brilliant!

Don't do a winter baby. It's crewl, rilly. Winter babies can't have pool birthday parties, which R the awesomest. HOw else can you show off you're expensive in-ground pool and sub-tropical landscaping, and what a hot mom U R in you're modest bikini?

Julia said...

Adooption, duh. And if the kid's birthday is on a day that is inconvenient, like a holiday when obvs you will already be having other parties, then just pick a new day for the birthday, because who will know?

Briana said...

haha! love the "young mom" bit. i have read that on too many blogs!

rsv sucks, but winter babies are awesome :)

Life is just so hard. All of these decisions. It's like it's all left on your shoulders, I mean, sure you pray about it but really it all ends up working the way you want it anyways, you just never tell people that, you just say that you left it in the Lord's hands and He just knew what was best for you. Agh, life can be so challenging!

So, visualizing is the way to get pregnant? Good 2 no! (What exactly does one visualize?)

um forget what everyone else is doing. If you want a kid..have a kid. :)

Brooke Trogdon said...

I was due January 30th, had baby on February 9th. Talk about FAT christmas pictures. Yikes. That's all I must say.

Myndie said...

blah blah blah

debbie said...

Seriously, that's why accidental babies are the best.

Steph Bowen said...

I'm having a Sept. baby. I'm fat in my bikini right now and all I get to do is look at the people who are for reals fat (not baby fat) in their bathing suits and feel totally superior to them because I'm fat in that cute way.

Unknown said...

No, I am baby-hungry! Not fair, I was it first, I just didn't blog about it.

Unknown said...

Oh my. It's SO hard when you get to pick when to have a baby instead of waiting to see when you'll be blessed with one! Ugh, maybe I should CTR some more!!! I had my 3rd in JULY and he STILL got RSV on Thanksgiving and was in the hospital for DAYS which was a TOTAL bummer because the cable was HORRIBLE. Thanks for ruining the holiday little one! Now he has asthma which is a PAIN! UGH! No offense, but MY life is way hard. At least with a winter baby you can buy them boatloads of Christmas presents even if they're not due for a couple more months. Oh wait, you'd probably do Christmas for a 2 week embryo wouldn't you? Maybe THAT'S why you're seriously so much more blessed than me!

I must admit though that I have a feeling this is a ruse (do you know what that is?) to distract us from the fact that you're already pregnant. I know you're just waiting until you can come up with the most unique way to tell us because big sibling shirts have already been done to DEATH!

Erin said...

Ew. Don't get preggo now. It'll make your spray tan streak. Gag.

don't worry about everyone else being preggers, you can't throw a dead cat in utah without hitting a preggers

*Erin* said...

Tamn, U R such a trooper! The trails U go thru everyday make my head spin! But U will get thru this, jus like U always do! But rilly, its way hard to decide when to get preggers, but I think U should pop another little angel out B4 its to late... the twins are like, what? One years old by now?! Put it off for two long and U will become one of those frumpies who have kids in there thirty's, with Relief Society flab on they're arms... EWWW!!! Get too that nuzzlin, Girlie!
XOXO

hubby and me - mumsy said...

You poor girl. So much to think about. . . but at least you don't do things just to bc their trendy. Of course you don't.

Shelley said...

This is a tuf one, but it matters when you're school cutoff date is. If it's sept 1st, a september baby is great because their the oldest one in the class, like my Kylie, she's born in sept and she was the oldest one in her 1st grade class and she's totally the smartest one in the class of course I would never say that but everyone knows it. They wanted to move her up two grades but I said no because I like it when she's the smartest kid int he class. Plus in sept you can still have pool parties, if it's early sept like mine. Then of course, you'd be back to skinny by xmas for pitchers.

Ryan 'n' Joy said...

but if you have a winter baby you can do the naked santa hat and stocking pitcher with the babe SO FREGING CUTE

Frau said...

OK, not to judge but this was a totally unrighteous post. You should not be deciding when to have a baby with logic.

For instance, my sister's sister-in-law's cousin thought they were done and totally did everything to not get pregnant - They were using cycle beads AND standing up when the beadies told her to do that AND using condoms sometimes. She got pregnant anyways which proves it's all God's will.

And then my mother's cousin's husband's brother and his wife did everything to have their first. I mean EVERYTHING. They kept going to the temple more and more and giving up their favorite music with gay singers. Plus, they even went whole-hog on fertility treatments. If my aunt sold it in her at-home business, they took it. And it still took them eleven months to conceive.

And then this woman in my ward didn't do anything. She didn't prevent, but she didn't pray and cry at the temple either. And she still had seven children in eight years.

We can see from this that it's not you at all, it's GOD'S timing. There is no way he wants us to think about things and try and make choices! He'll make all the good choices for us and all he asks is that we choose the right.

Ella said...

September birthdays are the best because then their the oldest in there sports teams. Nevermind being the smartest in school, being the biggest and most advanced on the sports team is what rilly counts.

Brooke said...

"Extra garage"???

ConnieB said...

Hmm.. I wouldn't over think it. Even when my husband and I PLANNED down to the day we were GOING to get pregnant, it still didn't happen for four months. So really it's up to you-know-who.

I say make babies NOW and don't worry about "when" they come (:

Jenna said...

I swear you got that idea of not things specifically because they are tendy from me. That's like my "thing". I say just avoid being pregnant in the summer because it's hecka hot. I really hope you are going to announce your second pregnancy with a picture of your peed on stick. It just doesn't feel real until I see that pink line pop up in my reader. You could even show TWO peed on sticks, like I did, because it shows you were rilly excited and had to use up more than one to prove that your snugglebuns swimmers really did the job!

Madry Family said...

I think being preggo in Winter is great. You can layer up cute tops and not cover them up with a coat because you have a built in heater!! You will look so cute whenever you get preggers!!

Gwen said...

Such a dilemma. You poor thing.

Anonymous said...

You want to get pregnant again before Lynzii, right?? It doesn't matter that everyone else is pregnant, because your fetus will be way hotter!

Little Lovables said...

you totally just spelled out all of my concerns too! so go by the rule, get preggo as soon as the kids go to nursery... but yours went in super early, so that would translate to 18 months from when you delivered the twiners.

Emily said...

I went back and read this post again and realized that 11 of the 13 lines in that paragraph are all one run-on sentence. BRAVA!!!!!!

HA HA HA HA!!!!! You are hilarious whoever you are! I love this post. Thanks for putting a smile on my face and not taking life too seriously. :)
