We have are now expecting a new addition to our family!

 

 

 

We, as a whole couldn't be more excited. As for me, it couldn't be more nerve wracking. what do you do? ...what will you name him? will he really turn out to be like me or hubby? Will he be healthy?......... we he have all ten toes and fingers?....will he be as cute as his big sister or brother? we all have worries, but here a few that I've thought about that may be amusing to you.

1) How many of us really think everyone else's baby is actually cute? who wants to be the the mom of the ugly child? LOL! Nobody wants to shield their baby from the camera after you've already made such a big deal about how cute his sonogram pictures were and shared them with the entire world.

2) How in the world will you ever have any alone time with a third child? This is a question I hear from other people and constantly ask myself (thanks to those adding to my worries). How will I pursue my career if I continue to procreate? well not gonna say that I have it all figured out, but most people make due with what they have and just because I will be a mother of three doesn't mean my life is over or that I have to stay home does it?

3) How in the world are supposed to support three children? Well this should be the number one question but not my number one worry. I feel that if I budget my money continue to save and buy only the necessities I will do fine, right? I guess we will see.

4) How in the world do you make room for another child in your already occupied space? Hmmm... I think there is a place called storage and thank goodness there are 9 months to figure this out. Where do you put a crib in an already filled up room? How do you part with the stuff you don't wanna get rid of? I guess only time will tell.

5)How do you reassure to your children that this new baby is not gonna replace them?
Well that's why you keep children involved in the prep for baby. Sonograms, baby shopping, talking about what they would love to help with when the baby comes. There's always the amount of time you spend with them and show them you care, right?

6) How do you get rid if the spectator's opinions in your life?
No matter what you do in life there are always gonna be those there with their opinions of how you should live. Always gonna be those people that smile at you when your in their presence, then laugh at you when your not around. Everyone who laughs at you may always weep in the dark about their own short comings. We know those people that swear that they can help you, be the person they want you to be, if this person they want you to be is not you then why don't they go find them? What about about those just unhappy people, that just wont quit snickering? well, you are the company you keep. If your not, then they are not benefiting you in any way (though they may be amusing). Keeping the positive in your circle and keeping out the negative can bring less stress, and less drama in your life do you agree?
