Trick and a Treat

Joe and I are just finishing up a VERY busy weekend.

Friday night, we had a birthday party for our good friend Paul. Saturday morning, we went to a birthday party for my two cousins Caveny and Carter (turning 6 and 7). Saturday night we had not one, but TWO Halloween parties (one was a birthday party, and the other was our friends Karl and Ashley's annual Halloween party). TODAY, we attended a baby shower for the hosts of the party last night- WHEW!

Also, tonight Joe and I had the baby talk.
(prompted by our mutual love and adoration of the precious Gracie, above)

This time, it was an actual discussion, not just dates and financial figures thrown around.
It looks like we might be pushing the TTC date up from July 2009 to March/April 2009.
We have both known for a long time that we wanted to be young parents. After all, his mom was married at 18, had him by 23 and my mother was married by 22, had my brother by 23. The way we look at it, we can either have time alone BEFORE the baby is born, or time alone after the baby leaves for college. I, personally, choose to have the time alone after the child leaves, therefore we would have more uninterrupted time and money to do whatever we want (at least, I hope we will have more money then!). I guess we will see what happens in the months to come.
