No babies!
03.05.07 (8:37 am)   [edit]

Mr. Nick and I went off to the mountains to visit my best friend and her family. Too bad the visit was so short. It was really nice to hang out *sniff*

It's weird to say, "and her family" BWAHAHAA Her son is 4 and a half months old. He's the kind of baby who doesn't seem to like sleeping for long periods of time. She is still waiting for him to sleep through the night. She keeps saying he's lucky he is cute. And he *is* adorable.

She didn't tell me ahead of time but we were going to a birthday party for a girl turning one. I had never been surrounded by so many babies all at once. In fact, I've never been really comfortable around babies. Like what am I supposed to do with them?? *L* Anyway, babies seem to like me.

Maybe they have this super sensory power about people not sure about babies, and they get all cute so you'll become a baby person. The morning of the party, my best friend's boy just kept staring at me...and staring...and staring...*L* And at the party, there was this other cutie who kept staring too. And he'd break out into this huge grin. He was so chubby, and he had so much hair!! He was about 8 months old and had already gotten 2 haircuts. Are babies attracted to long dark hair? BWAHAHHA (My hair seems to be everyone's reason why people find me attractive.)

I was even asked if I had kids, like I must already have them if babies feel comfortable around me. BWAHAHHAA 

Anyway, being around so many kids and giving them my full attention for 2 hours really tuckered me out! And then that night, I was dreaming about 1-year old birthday parties! I tried to sound really traumatised for Mr. Nick since he really wants kids.

I think what I fear most about having kids is the physical changes that will happen to me!! 

But I should probably stop saying "no babies" to Mr. Nick. And I also tell him we could just adopt, especially from China. Then we can have a kid that (ethnically) will look like me. MWUAHAHA 

The topic of living together came up, too. It wasn't too long ago that he was all "we haven't known each other long enough to even consider it", and I think that was 2 or 3 months ago. We've been dating each other almost 6 months (5 months, officially). I had told him I didn't want to live with a guy unless we were engaged or married.

In my "he can't be serious" thinking, I was like, "okay, let's live together!" But I'm not really sure. He'd want to buy a place together. He doesn't want to keep renting, especially with 2 incomes. But living together hadn't really crossed my mind. My place isn't big enough for the both of us.

The thought getting ready to live together is exciting. But I am not sure about actually doing it!

Living together is definately a big step but if he's the right one, it's a step in the right direction!

I'm with you on the kids - I'm never quite sure what's expected of me and babies, especially when they're not mine.

I've never lived with a guy before so I don't know what to think. I always wanted to live with a guy after knowing there'd be a more permanent future rather than live together first.

big step in moving in. Also indicates that he's pretty serious about you if he wants to live with you.

I am freaking out a little here! I am thrilled that he wants to, but it is a huge step for me!

I'm excited for you :) I remember when my husband first mentioned us living together, I was all giddy but, we ended up getting married first and then living together.

*IF* you had a baby, you'd figure it all out. I weigh the same or less than I did before I got pregnant with my first baby. My daughter says the same thing you say though, she doesn't want her body all stretched out. (well you didn't exactly say that)

Thanks :) I don't think I am ready to be moving in with the boy yet though :-/ I will have to figure out how to tell him this!

*L* I am the kind of person who gains weight easily. I doubt I'd ever lose the baby weight! But I just think about stretched skin and body parts and saggy body parts, too, and I shudder -- not to mention labour!! However, I know the ultimate gift is worth it.

No need to rush into anything. ;-)

Yes, I agree. I think rushing would just stress me out. BWAHAHAA
