My best friend is having a baby

My very best friend in this entire world, Carissa, is due to become a first time mama in September. I know it is hard to believe, but I may be more excited than she is. You see....being right in the middle of motherhood is almost like being in a whole other world.....and I have been a mama for (GASP) seven years now....Carissa and I have been best friends for thirteen years...so for more than half of our friendship I have been transported into this whole other universe....and now she will finally be joining me!!!!! I am also completely and utterly excited to be an aunt again and hold....spoil....and love on a little bitty baby. Ready for the kicker....the punch line....the main reason for this blog???? This has given me (YES...the I never wanna be pregnant or birth another child EVER again...me)baby fever. For the past few months I have very, very, seriously been contemplating a third child. I have tried to convince my husband, I have been watching a baby story for crying out freaking loud!!! Then it happened....two nights ago Paige was being VERY quite so we went to hunt her down and found her looking down at her sink in her bathroom....with blue eye shadow spread all over the sink. We stood for a minute and watched then we called her name....she looked up with a big smile......

And just like that I remembered very distinctly why we stopped after Paige.
