Dreaming of Drew

So the other night I had a dream that Zac and I were getting ready for a wedding. We had a little baby boy named Drew, who was peacefully sleeping while we got dressed and primped. All of the sudden, the doorbell rang and simultaneously Zac and I both said "that's my parents." We looked at each other confused...I knew it was my mom and dad, but was he suggesting it was his mom and dad at the door? When we went together to answer the door, it was his parents standing there, but my parents pulled up while we were still at the door. We all looked confused. Zac and I finally realized that there was a misunderstanding and we each had asked our parents to watch Drew while we went to the wedding. We were running late and had to leave, but our mom's suggested that since they both wanted to spend time with their baby grandson, they all just stay to watch him (and I think I vaguely remember the dads talking about some big game being on tv that night). The last thing I remember was Zac and I leaving in the car and feeling weird that we were leaving our baby, our home, and we had four house guests. Haha...isn't that a descriptive dream? When I woke up I lay there and thought about it for a long time. It was a happy dream. The funny thing is that I can totally see our parents doing that. They get along very well, and I know that they would enjoy anytime with their grandson.
Oh, and for more specifics, I remember that Drew was small and skinny. He had on baby blue and his nursery was baby blue and light brown...which is weird, since I have never thought of using those colors in a nursery. haha, oh well.

Passion and Ambition...

Last night when we were watching tv, Zac was laying on the couch and out of the blue said "I'm ready to have a little baby. A girl. She would be laying on my chest right now if she was here." awww... Told you we have baby fever!

Today as I was doing some homework, I told Zac I don't even know why I want a degree, because I never want to work...I just want to be a full time mom and be with my kids. I asked him if he ever wished that I had more ambition and he said the sweetest thing. He told me that I do have lots of ambition...that I am ambitious about being the best mom ever. He told me that he thought it was cool that I have something I am completely passionate about, and said that many people do not have that amount of passion towards something. :) Wasn't that sweet?? I didn't even have anything to say back, I was just smiling and soaking it in.

See, little one...I already think about you ALL THE TIME, and you are not even created yet! hehe

I know, I know...

I'm not a mom yet, we're not even trying yet...why do I need a blog? Well, I just so happen to be one of those sappy-sentimental people who wants to write letters to their unborn (okay, and unconceived) children! I always think "I need to tell our kids this when they are older" about random things, so why not go ahead and start communicating with them?

All my life, all I have ever wanted to be was a mommy. STILL, all I want to be is a mom. I wish I cared about a career and being rich, but the truth is I just don't, and I can't change that. All I want is to be a mommy, and I have wanted it longer than I can ever remember wanting anything. Even more than the "perfect wedding day" as a child, I thought about being a Mama. And not just to babies, I like to think about the teenage years too, that seem to scare other people. I am looking forward to my kids being in high school and involved in various activities (there are certain ones I hope they choose more than others, but hey, its their choice, right?). I can't wait to go to soccer games and sell stuff for fund-raisers. I WANT to wake up in the middle of the night to tend to my needy baby (I know, I know...I will be regretting saying that one day!)

I don't know...I guess I'm just rambling. You could say I have had baby fever going on about three years now, and it keeps getting stronger! Zac finishes his masters, and I graduate with my bachelors in December of 2009, which is one year away. And so...the countdown begins. Zac and I made a deal that as soon as I graduate, we will start a family. I can't wait!!!
