My confession... I'm hanging my head in shame right now...

After all of my talk about how I didn't want to have kids and yadda yadda...

Something switched in my brain and I have BOTB.

Haha.... I can't think of any good ones... but...
I confess I HATE what xmas has become! seriously it used to be about family, not gifts/how much money you spend!  My little brother, only 7,  is asking for a Nintendo DS, Ipod touch, cell phone, wii and games! SERIOUSLY! I'm NOT about to spend over 100 on a 7 year old for xmas!!! What is wrong with kids these days! Some peoples children.....

Welcome to my world, Sarah. Hahaha

It SUCKS. Especially since FI & I had both agreed that if we didn't have kids, that was ok with us. There are other things we want to do. We love our nephew(s) (one on the way) and could be awesome aunts & uncles.

A couple weeks ago we went to FI's cousins daughters 1st birthday. There were like a dozen kids under the age of 10 there. Normally that would be the perfect form of birth controll for me. Panic sets in when I'm around that many kids. This time, on the other hand, I felt different. I think that party changed things for me, but I don't know why. After that, the thought of pregnancy and labor doesn't paralyze me with fear, and the thought of having a couple kiddos doesn't make me feel like I'm suffocating. Baby steps. LOL.

FI is sort of freaked out, but he said that he could see us having kids. I can't believe I'm confessing this now also, but I think we are shooting to have a wee one in 2011. Holy cr@p.

That's hilarious Sarah.  Growing up I always said I didn't want kids.  The switch went off for me at 18.  God I had the itch BAD!  Of course I resisted because I'm a sane person (most of the time).  Now that it's ok for us to TTC I'm not ready.  Oh the irony!

I never wanted kids. I wasn't the little girl who played house and had a dozen baby dolls. My mom told me she was the same way, and then when she was 29 reality set in, and she realized if my parents were going to have kids they needed to get to it. I think I took after her, but I snapped out of it at 26. The thing is I want to have 2 kids and I want to be done by the time I'm 31. If we wait until 2011 I'll be 27/28, so it's definitely feeling like reality setting in.

The one thing I really want to do before we have kids is go on a Carribean cruise. FI's never been on a cruise, and I've never been to the Carribean, so that's something I want to do just the two of us.

When I had my maternity rotation for school and watching a birth it made my say "I am NEVER having kids"  I just did my peds rotation and fell in love with kids!! I want to be completely done with school... my ultimate goal would be to get my DNP... getting a Doctorate is will take me forever so I probably wont wait that long to have kids! Seriously having all these people around me having kdis makes me want one even more!
