I Am Having A Baby... Cousin

OK first, so that i'm not confusing anyone by the title, I am not having a baby. But my Aunt is. I already have three cousins of my own, their names are Jon, Taylor, and Sam. The reason why I'm so excited about this baby, is because my aunt hasn't had a lot of luck when it came to babies. I'm very excited for my aunt and uncle to become a mom and dad.


I never thought much in terms of preparedness when it comes to babies, but its a lot more work then it seems. As I looked around at the baby's room this weekend, I saw what life is going to be like for me about 10-15 years from now. Baby books, blankets, toys, and stuffed animals as far as the eye can see, is neatly placed all around the room. Instead of clothes in the closet, it's usually diapers, or baby wipes. All doors and electrical outlets are childproofed, and there is a rocking chair in almost every commonly entered room. I always thought that a house expecting a baby would be like this:


A couple of stuffed animals in the room but not so much that if I fell, I wouldn't land on 5 stuffed penguins.


A beautiful crib (Which my aunt and uncle do have) with a super comfortable baby mattress.


And lots of books too. I would want to read my child a new story every week.


Plus everything else mentioned before.





Lets just say i'm over-thinking happiness.

Having a baby is a wonderful thing, and even when you have the worst day of your life, you still know that you have a child either sitting  at home, waiting for you, or you waiting for that little angel to reveal itself to you. For all the moms and dads and soon-to-be moms and dads of the world, Your ultimate happiness is much closer then you think. Congratulations to my Aunt Kristin and Uncle Jem.
