Baby Blues

No, I'm not prego, nor was I ever. Steve and I aren't even trying for kids right now. (Hopefully soon though.)
I have this little nagging feeling to get on the band wagon and start our little family. Everywhere I go, I see babies, and I swear that little feeling inside is saying get on it!
I went shopping for baby clothes with my mom in law a couple weeks ago to find a baby outfit for my cute cousin. I loved looking at all the baby stuff, and all the cute little things. Made me wish that I was picking up stuff for me and Steve's lil' one.
Steve and I have been preparing to start our family, and Steve is just as anxious as I am, but it seems like our preparing is taking FOREVER! I know, it's a great idea to plan a head. I'm always up for planning and being prepared, but i'm ready to be a mom.
Doesn't everyone get those feelings when ITS time?

Okay, I feel much better now.

I totally know how you feel! It's totally normal - you two will have ADORABLE babies! But still, you need time for yourselves and only Heavenly Father knows when it's time! When the time comes, you will be the cutest little mommy in the world! And Steve is going to be the best daddy! Good luck, everything will work out great!

I got those nagging feelings inside that it was time to have a baby too. I thought I was nuts because Jared still had forever left of school and we weren't as settled as I would've liked, but I knew it was time. Things always work out how they are supposed to in the end. I can't imagine having my 2 any earlier or later...they were sent to us when they were meant to be here. Just listen to your feelings and don't feel pressure from outside sources of when you should or shouldn't start a family. Only you two and heavenly father know what timing is best for you.

I totally had those nagging feelings! Especially in church on Sundays! It almost felt like we were just delaying the inevitable and we didn't have a reason to... but we really didn't have a reason to (some people really do have reasons to wait). That sounds like a weird reason, but we were just ready to get started with our family even though we hadn't been married even a whole year yet at the time! Neither of us have ever regretted it =) - not trying to talk you into it or anything but 9 months is a long time to continue to get ready. It's too long in my eyes! =) but now I'm excited!

That is kind of funny because I keep thinking will I get those feelings. And yes everywhere I turn someone is pregnant or they already have a kid and are trying for another one. Mike and I feel like we are behind but we are going on our own time clock and not our friends' time. But it will be so exciting when we get there. And it sounds like you are there but what do I know I don't have any kids :)

You are so cute. You and Steve will make great parents too. Kids are awesome. You can barrow Owen anytime you want. ha ha Maybe your new nursery calling will be your answer :0)

Its so funny that you say this because I have been feeling this same way lately and I even started crying yesterday because I was so worried that when we do start trying that I wont be able to get pregnant. But I do hope that when we both have kids they can be the same age so they can get married and we can know eachother forever. You are my bestest friend since we were little and I know we were meant to be friends. It really has been too long and we need to see eachother soon!

You will be a great mom! I can't wait for you to have a baby! It will happen when it feels right...I am hoping that its sooner then later tho :) But I totally know what you are talking about I felt the same way! I think Patience is the key!

Keira, I can't wait for you to have kids. They will be sooo cute. When Max and I thought we were ready, the Lord told us no. The only way I can tell you what to do is go through a session at the Temple and have that question on your mind. When you get to the Celestial room ask the question and you will know if its the right time. We had to wait two years after we thought we were ready. Be patient.

Lady. I am happy to hear that I am not the only one. Why do preparations take so darn long? ...and just when you think you are there, all of the sudden another huge obstacle presents itself... geez. One of these days our little people will arrive, it really will happen. I just know it. At least, that is what I am always praying for.
