Baby hungry? Just a little..

So I cannot even express how baby hungry I am!! I always said I would have kids right off after being married,  but Nick wants to wait a year!! So, we compromised... We're going to start trying in February!! Not TOO long away, right? Not!!! Every day feels like a lifetime! So in the meantime, I am just enjoying babysitting my nieces and nephews! It passes the time a LITTLE quicker! We babysat Brooklyn and Miley (Em's kids) not too long ago and this is what we did... Hahaha. Those are bullet bike helmets that we had at our house. They honestly look like aliens because the helmets are huge! They are so cute!! 


Then, I have also been babysitting Druw and Mckynlee too! Here are a few pictures!! I seriously cannot get enough of all of my nieces and nephews!! Call me the permanent babysitter!! I love it! 


And to top off my baby hungryness, here is what I did to McKynlee!


It was the best I could do. She kept bumping them and trying to grab the color on her toes! In fact, she tried putting it in her mouth because she thought it was supposed to be tasty. Next time, I will wait until she's asleep to do it. That way she won't move, and they can dry all the way. It was so cute too because I let Druw pick the color and he blew on them to get dry. When he saw the finished product, he said "Oh....BEAUTIFUL!!" I seriously love ALL my nieces and nephews!! And my love is being spread out more and more now because we just added three more, and one is due next week! Emily had another one about 8 weeks ago, Tina had hers a week and a half ago, Kate had hers yesterday, and Fia is due sometime next week. We just had family pictures in July, and now we have almost 4 more to add to that picture! My family is growing SOOO fast and I absolutely LOVE it!!

Oh, and I almost forgot... Nick is JUST as baby hungry as me! We were at the grocery store the other day, and he saw some sippie cups and he said "Sher, we should buy some sippies!!" I had the most confused look on my face, and then he said "Uh, for when we babysit our nieces and nephews!!" So, we ended up buying some. Then, every time we get free time, he says "Are any of the kids at your mom's? Let's go check and hang out with them!" He watched McKynlee the other day, just by himself, and he told me ALL about it on the way home. "She was so tired, and was fighting her nap. I tried putting her down, but she just wanted to play. So I played with her, watching her try her hardest to stay awake! So finally, I swaddled her up and sang  her primary songs. She watched me so intently until she couldn't keep her eyes open any longer. It was SOOO cute!"  He loves them just as much as I do! He'll be such a good daddy!!
