not ready

I watched my cousin Keri's 3 month old baby today. He's a cute baby, but I'm exausted. Maybe all babies are like this, but he wasn't happy doing anything for more than 20 minutes at a time. He didn't want to eat, he didn't want to play with toys, he didn't want me to be sitting. He was only content watching tv with his fuzzy blanket up next to his face. He's a very fussy baby. The longest he slept all day was 40 minutes, and that was with me rocking him. He did laugh at me a little bit which was fun. He perfers boys, he was giggling like crazy for Martin and Seth. They were cute with him. Everything considered, I stick by my way of thinking that yeah babies are cute, but I'm very happy with my freedom for the time being.

I think the best time starts with a child when you can start talking to them, when they can sit and start trying to crawl. Before it can be very exhausting, depending on the child. It is a life long commitment and no need to rush into it. A career should be sorted out first, so when mummy wants to return back to work, she can, even if it is only part time. You should carry on your path you decided a couple of weeks ago, see a bit more of the world and then both of you make the choice to take on the the responsiblity of a child(children).
