Deliver Me from Baby Envy

It's a gorgeous Saturday and I've been up early finding any and all nooks and crannies for the rest of our wedding gifts. This afternoon, our new buffet will be delivered. I can't wait to finally take the booze off the bookshelf in the living room and into a sleek, sophisticated storage space. But, in the midst of all this organizing, I needed a break. So I sat down with a nice cup of coffee and found an intriguing show on the Discovery Health channel called Deliver Me. It's about three OBs who are best friends. Viewers get a glimpse into their professional and personal lives as they help women become moms. I don't know if it's post-wedding-planning boredom or what, but I find myself fixated on labor and delivery shows. I can't even stand to watch the wedding shows anymore. Been there, done that.

Have any other newlyweds experienced an urge to plan another big event such as the birth of a baby? The hubs and I have already decided that we would wait at least a year before we even considered trying to have a little one. We just want to enjoy being married, maybe do some traveling, save up some more money. So knowing that this is what I agreed to, and it's what I want, why am I having baby envy?

For now, I'm sure as I occupy myself with more cleaning and organizing, the feeling will pass. And I have one special delivery to look forward to--my buffet. I have never been so excited for furniture.
