K is for...

Kid?

Ooo...the pressure's mounting. More and more of you are convinced that we should have kids. Somehow, everyone believes that now is the right time for me to get pregnant. It seems that hubby and I are the only ones who are not sure if its the right time for me to get pregnant.

Over the weekend, we found out that my sister-in-law's sister-in-law-to-be (my sister-in-law is getting married in less than 2 weeks) is pregnant. And she's only 22 (I think???). That's just totally thrown me.

Anyway, with the pressure mounting with Sam and stuff, hubby and I had a long discussion. We debated, we talked, we looked at pros and cons. We thought about it long and hard. And finally, we came to a decision.

And so, 2 Sundays ago...we made it official.

What's official, I hear you say?

*drum roll please*

K is for Kitt.

Kitt is the new puppy we've adopted from the pet rescue. What does this have to do with getting pregnant? Well, this is the easiest way for us to add to the family without my having to suffer through childbirth. So will put up pictures of Kitt a bit later when we have good ones of our newest addition to the family.

In the meantime, stop talking about me getting pregnant. Coz' then we might think about getting yet another dog and I doubt I'd be able to handle 3.

Wei!

Do you expect Jasmine and Amani to get along with your kid when you guys come to Malaysia? The age gap will make them NOT be friends with your kid!

Apa laaaaa

:D congrats on the new puppy.

btw, there's never a 'right' time for anything really. when it happens, it happens and u take it from there.

on the other hand, a puppy can't call u mama/mummy and say 'i love u' at the most unexpected time and make ur heart just melt like butter..
(sorry, i'm a mom so i'm biased :))

Let it be told that I did not pressure you.. much.. on the whole baby thing. Besides, it's all about money, money and money nowadays isn't it?

My friend told me that if you count how much you spend on your baby financially you wouldn't want one coz you wouldn't be able to afford one. That's true. He said, as far as a baby is concerned we have to live by faith day by day, and everything will fall into place, becoz a baby is a gift of God.

Now that I have a baby, I can tell you that's true. It's a joy from 4th month onwards. The first 3 months are lack-of-sleep months. Now I wish I have babies earlier. Then a dozen would be enough.

But there is still hope. A second wife.
