As we journey through our new life together as husband and wife in Christ, I'll use this space to detail some of our happenings every now and again. It'll be so neat to look back on this to see how much we have grown together!

The Last Two Hours--Him: Cars. Me: Babies

Posted Monday, January 07, 2008 2:41 AM

Seriously!  We had what we would classify as a busy Sunday, so when we came home, all we both wanted was computer time to ourselves.  He's been looking at cars for the past couple of hours (we're looking to get a second car since my new job complicates things), while I've been reading up on tips for preparing to TTC, tips for TTC, pregnancy suggestions and goodies on bringing baby home.  My biological clock's alarm is going off big time today!

Before we got married, we said we'd like to be married for at least a year before TTC to enjoy the benefits of marriage (^.~) before bringing a baby into the picture.  It looks like we should be right on track for that (job-wise and financially speaking), though that means another six months to go! 

We are so blessed, though, that God is basically pushing us into opening the new school.  Believe me, if it were up to me, we may never get to it with how meticulously I like to prepare for something before jumping right on into it.  We are meeting with someone on Tuesday to look at a location and discuss what kind of terms he was thinking.  Otherwise, we'll be looking at other possibilities still, including him taking over the school he currently teaches at. 

I feel I am doing a pretty darn good job of keeping a positive attitude and not freaking out about this transition period, though I do have my moments.  Especially since getting married, I have worked hard on not trying to obsess over controlling every little thing I can, but rather just following God and seeing what He has chosen to give us in our lives.  It's been hard for me since I have been known to fret over life's many uncertainties, but it has been very rewarding.  I know it'll be incredibly key when it comes to having a baby, so I am thankful for the time before to get myself in order.

But anyway, my eyes are starting to bother me with staring at the computer so much, so I think it's time to relax them by either a) making brownied (yum!), or b) taking a shower (ahh).

Your hubby will never be as excited as you want him to be about TTC. We're trying and I mention something about it every single day, while it was DH's suggestion in the first place that we get this moving in the right direction. I would have NEVER suggested that we start now, b/c I would have never guessed he'd be ready anytime soon.

He actually is excited about the prospect, but he's just keeping a more level head than I am since now's not even the right time for us.  ^^;;  He really wants a baby but wants to make sure other things are settled first.  He'll sometimes even say cute things using the names we've already picked out (lol!), so he knows how to win me over.  XD  But anyway, we'll see how he is when the time really comes.

We are married as of July 7th! I strive to be a Proverbs 31 wife and am thankful for each day I have the opportunity to grow by my husband's side. ^^;; We are trying to get a few things sorted for now so that we can head down the path God has paved for us full force!
