A New Chapter: maybe a baby?

Last night, while nibbling on some dinner, I casually mentioned to Reza that I will start taking prenatal vitamins. With casualness, I meant not looking into his eyes or waiting for an agreement. We have talked about and agreed on having a baby in a couple of years when we are settled with our little dream house and stable careers. But for a few months now, my maternal instincts have been kicking in like crazy, and I have dropped hints here and there. But Reza always had a good way of saying no without physically saying no. He would smile, look away and change the subject. Or he would talk about our two adorable dogs who are keeping us busy or that we should do more traveling. And honestly, I didn't expect last night to be any different.

However, last night, to my surprise, he uttered those words, I think that would be a great idea. My head spang to his direction like a new spring to make sure those words were his. For all that I know, it could have been one of our male neighboring fellas at the restaurant talking aloud. With uncertainty, I said, What? and he turned to me with a big grin and said it again, I think that would be a great idea.

So there you have it. We're going to try for a baby - soon. I am ecstatic!

I don't have a photo of me jumping off the walls, but what's a photo blog without a photo? So here is one of my handsome hubby - a promising father:
