Babies

First off, no I'm not pregnant and no I'm not planning on having any babies for a long time. The tentative plan is about 4 years, but that is for now. I know that both Scott and I want time to ourselves, our careers and school. Also, I cannot fathom being responsible enough right now for a human being to be totally dependant on me. (Scott is only mostly dependant on me haha j/k) . I'm sure that most people think this way and then when the time comes where they choose (or not choose) to have a baby they just have to adapt to it. I imagine the 9 month incubation period is God's way of preparing us mentally and intellectually about how its going to be. I've heard the children totally change a marriage, both in good and bad ways, depending on who was telling me this. Sarah (Scott's sister) was Due December 17, yet there is still no little baby for us to see on Friday! We're hoping that changes pretty quickly since that is a pretty big part of the reason why we are coming out to Ohio! Of course we will still go out there if there is no baby, but we may be spending our holidays in the hospital! And that would be okay too. I've never been to the hospital while a baby was being born and I think that it would be exciting.

Anyway, I am excited to have children someday......I think. I'm sure lots of people have preconceptions about babies holding you back with your career, vacations or trips, but maybe its more like you just get to share these experiences with a new part of your family.

I'm hoping the rest of this week goes fast. Tonite after work I have to stop by Macy's for a few last minute gifts and some luggage for scott and I. Then Thursday its off to the wonderful DMV, to get my name changed. (I keep saying i'm going to do this but I just hate the DMV so much I have put it off).

Yay for Christmas!
