Oh baby!!!

So we were in Target, looking at rice cookers and skinny jeans when Chris got a phone call on his cell. He got real quiet and said ok let me talk to her and I'll call you back. He waited a few seconds and in a sweet little voice said, "I'll make you a deal. We can have a baby whenever you want IF we can take mom and pops' sectional!" Let's back track a ll and let me tell you the story of the sectional that I truly hated and refused to EVER have in the condo. First off it's blue, though Chris will argue to his death and tell you it's a steel grey color. Second its HUGE and in our lil condo with all of Logan's toys and chris' 65' t.v. and another couch and couch chair, it would never fit..so I thought. So to jump back to the beginning of the story I said, "WTF? Are you serious, cause if you are I am making an appointment with my OBGYN and getting my birth control taken out Monday!!" Yeah he was serious, my in laws finally decided on a sectional they liked and had ordered it and needed the old one out of their house by tuesday night. So ladies and boys, there will be a new Schiele added to the clan later this year, or so I thought. After alot of thinking and being around my son 24/7, I dont know if I am ready yet. I mean I am ready but I dont think I can take care of 2 year old Logan and a newborn lol. If Chris could cut back on working from home and help me and if my mom in law could take Logan Tuesday and Thursday afternoons once she gets off work at 2:30ish, I could prolly handle it. Also if we get this house in Fair Oaks, it would be alot easier because we would have a backyard for Lo to play in and 2 parks and a school within walking distance to take Lo to get all his energy out running around and playing..So either way, I will be pregnant this year because if we decide to wait a lil bit, we will go forth with the original plan stated in above blog about getting preggers in aug. having baby in may and Lo in school aug. or sept. of next year :) YAY!!! and i will update and show pics of house if we get it, we meet with guy on Thursday :)

I want another baby...


Most women hate being preggers. From being sick, to gaining weight, to all the discomforts during the 9 momths ur lil bun is in the oven. For me it was the complete opposite, until about the last two weeks. I LOVED being knocked up! I loved rubbing my belly and holding it, especially once I knew Logan was a Logan and could talk and let him listen to music (his fave was Pump It by Black Eyed Peas, he'd hella start moving when I'd play it) and once he stared growing and moving around so much that you could see it. I really had it easy from start to finish and I know how lucky I was.

It's the on going joke in the Schiele family that the daughter in law who has the 1st girl will be the lottery winner for sure! Papa will hand build her her own doll house and Gramma can finally spoil her with all the cutest clothes and toys :) As of right now the Schiele clan consists of Paul and Debbi, who had three sons: Paul Jr., Tim and my hubby, the baby Chris. Then Paul Jr. and his wife Lisa had Tre, who's 5 and Ryan who is 3. Chris and I had L0gan, who's lil over a year and a half. And in July, Paul and Lisa had another boy, Joel (which we think is the last one for awhile). So now its between Andrea, Tim's wife and me to have the next kid *crosses fingers* THE girl.

My whole reservation about having another kid soon was that I didn't want to be raising 2 babies at the same time. I wanted Logan older so he kinda knew hat was going on and that he would be a lil bit self sufficient. Well after goin to Colorado with Lo and having him spend time with his new cousin Kaylee (on my side of the family), he was perfect with her. Helped my cousin Jenny by throwing away diapers for her, getting toys for Kaylee and he was soo sweet and gentle with her, giving her kisses and holding her hand in the car, while they sat side by side in the back seat <3 So after returning from CO I told Chris that here was my plan: I wanted to be pregnant by next August, to give birth by May 2010. That would give Logan 3.5 to 4 months to get used to the baby before he starts preschool and work out any kinks there are before he starts in August or Sept. of 2010. That's my plan, let's hope Chris will warm up to it more before the time comes <3
