I have to be completely honest with myself, and no it has nothing to do with ‘baby fever’.
I’ve always wanted to have more than one child.
However, my life is not set up for another baby. I can’t afford another baby and everything it would come with. I don’t even have a spouse for that matter and I really want my children to grow up in a healthy, happy home. So much emphasis on healthy! So many factors go into having and raising a child, and I just want to do it better for myself the next time I have a child. Plus, Vincenzo deserves that too.
Speaking of my tiny man child, he has been growing like a weed! Still about 3 feet and weighing almost a solid 30 pounds, Vinny has physically and mentally changed. As he’s supposed to, Vinny has been talking up a storm! his vocabulary is advancing and I can understand partially of what he is saying. He’s really good with his colors and certain animals and objects. When we pass a semi-truck, “Mama, look! Truck!”
He’s really into Spiderman and PJ Masks at the moment. He still enjoys being outside and YouTube Kids (I wanna shoot whoever made that damn Shark song!) He’s always eating; Vincenzo gots to have his bananas! He loves to be around his cousin and uncle who are around his age. My baby isn’t a baby anymore!
As Vincenzo is aging, I am trying to get a lot of things in order. School is going well for me but I must say my job is becoming too stressful for my taste. I know jobs are jobs, at least to me, but I think it’s time for me to find something else. I have been thinking of permanently working in a pharmacy setting. I also have been thinking of getting a typical desk job that’s 9 to 5…I have options but I actually need something that has flexible hours because I’m still in school. I’m getting closer to that degree…
Back to the main topic, I’d love to have another baby and Vinny have a little sibling. I’m ready for the family I deserve and I mainly mean a partner who’s ready for that too, with me though. Maybe I finally found someone?
I can’t tell you any more than that!
Vincenzo will be old enough for school soon. He’s 2 now and I plan on starting him when he’s 4. Two years can shoot by without me being ready for it so I should consider looking up schools. If things are in my favor, I want to have a baby around that time. Hopefully, I am married and settled in a promising home that welcomes another little me. I also hope I have a better job and have had my book published. I want a lot for myself and I trying to pace myself into thinking everything will work out in time.
Chapter Five of Mary Lou’s Baby will be posted next time; don’t worry!
How are you guys doing though? Thanks for reading! See you next week.
I'm ready for that newborn stage again! It's my favorite. I have to be completely honest with myself, and no it has nothing to do with 'baby fever'.
