Trying Again

Hi, I'm Rachel. My husband, Andy, and I have a 17 month old daughter, Olivia. We have been thinking of trying for a second. There always seems to be some excuse that has stopped us in the past several months but I've decided that will always be true so its now or never. I'm not sure Andy is in 100% agreement but he's at least 85% there and counting ;)

I'm scared. Its true. Olivia is amazing, fun, adorable, hilarious, and difficult. The thought of another one is both terrifying and exciting! I don't want the nights of no sleep again but I do want another sweet face to love. I also know I want two children and I want them to be close in age. I shudder to think about two babies screaming at the same time (thank goodness I didn't have twins). I was totally freaked out before Olivia came also. After all, neither Andy nor I had ever even babysitted, let alone changed diapers and soothed a screaming child. Still though, everything seemed to fall into place and I figured out the mom thing and Andy turned out to be a fabulous dad. So here we are, trying for that elusive perfect timing required for conception. Is it a good idea? I don't know, but we're going for it anyway! Wish us luck!
