Ahhhhhh!! Harold just said he wants to have a baby!!!!!!! ( i sent this through the phone on our way to dinner!!!)
SOOOOOO... yea.. we are driving to his parents house and he's like "oh my god i'm gonna be 27.... blah blah maybe its time to have a baby" WHAT?!?!?! AHHHHHHH!!! it was the craziest thing to hear him say! Then all through dinner with his parents its all they could talk about! Ay - I dont' know what to think!!
His parents were all like "I can't wait and we're gonna set up the room for the baby... and we can help you..." Don't get me wrong.. its alllllll gravy now... BUT.. they managed to squeeze the comment of "one week with us and the other week with your parents" oh and "i don't have to work - i can stay with the baby" - picture me choking on my food at this point!
I don't know how people manage to do the whole balancing act with their kids. Don't get me wrong its awesome to have such a great support system.. How am I even supposed to talk to harold about this!??! what do I say??? OH and get this!!!! His parents offered to pay for the house for two years so harold can take off of work and go back to school.... WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO SAY?!!?!?!?! I feel so uncomfortable... that's freaking huge! that's GIANT!
This would be a good post for you to comment on and give me some advice! Life experiences.... anything... PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!
On a happier note... HAROLD WANTS TO HAVE A BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ok, here is some advice lol...remember that no one has the perfect answer..not even your mother hahahaha. First of all, if you truly want to have a baby this year, PLEASE, stick to your diet and lose some significant weight before you get pregnant. I do not want to see you get diabetes or any other unhealthy symptom while you are pregnant. Everytime you want to eat junk, think of being pregnant and hopefully this will help you.
ReplyDeleteI think when you have a baby, you should take a couple months off, but I think you still need to work. You are not rich and remember that its quality time and not quantity time that counts!
Though Harold's parents are different than what you are accustomed to. Harold's parents are very loving, sweet and caring people. They will adore the baby. Its hard when its the first baby, because you will be overprotective. As the baby grows, you will feel more confident about doing things.
Lets face it, its alot more fun in the Keys than anywhere else. I think you need to get Harold's parents used to coming down and sharing time with us. Unfortunately, they don't like boating like we do. Since I do work and Margarita doesn't. Maybe she will be content taking care of the baby for the 3 days that you work. I will be the jeolous one, because she will be loving the baby while I have to work lol lol but I will love the baby triple time on my weekends hahaha
When you have a child, you will understand how you want to do EVERYTHING you can for your children. If Harold's parents are offering to do that for you both, its because they can afford to do it. Its a gesture of love. I think you should accept it if Harold wants to go back to school. As we get older, you can't die and take the money with you, so they would rather see the money going to good use while they are living. Harold is their only son, so he is their life. I am sure they would want to do even more if they could.
Balancing is easy, as long as everyone works TOGETHER!!
You are going to be such a wonderful mother!! The baby will be a happy, go lucky little child! Its gonna be the best time of our lives!!
well thats about it on my opinion. Remember..Opinions are like assholes, cuz everyone has one! lol lol
I love you to the moon!!
