Time keeps slipping...

I can't believe that it is August already! I have been so busy with different things (work, a four year old, Trent's crazy long hours and a crazy four year old....) We have been starting activly looking for houses. And by actively I mean I look through the little book, get online and get more information and then show Trent. Then the ball gets dropped. He has been working 12s for the past two weeks, and we are going into week 3 now so he hasn't had a chance to get to the bank to see what price range we can look at. It's really wearing on all of us but we will make it through, we always do! As part of the house hunting thing, I have been contemplating having another baby. I just turned 31 so I know I don't have too much more time before a) I'm at that age where I would be "high risk" and b) I'm the one at said child's graduation where I could be easily confused as Grandma....Granted I do have my Grandma's wonderful ageless skin (or at least I've been told) so it wouldn't be too obvious as long as I had my gray hair craftfully hidden and no old lady/mom jeans on. These are the things I think about when I think of having another baby. But then I also think about all the little cuddles, coos, giggles, kisses and that pinchable baby face. *sigh* Plus, several people I know are having babies right now so that doesn't help at all.

On a side note, I eased into my 30s on Sunday with nothing too eventful happening. I had to work and then spent the evening with the inlaws which is always fun. Monday was with my parents and my Grandma C. I don't know what it is about family gatherings but I love them. I love get togethers in general. 10 people, 50 people even if its just me and my two besties. If I had a house, I would be having them constantly for no reason at all! It makes me all warm & fuzzy inside to have a house full of friends & family. It's how I grew up and I hope to have that same environment for the munchkin as he grows up. Of course a house would make that much easier....
