I have so many friends who have had or are expecting babies this year. It’s pretty awesome, actually. Of course, here at church, a few of our best friends have helped the church grow the old-fashioned way. Sunny’s blogged about baby Will and baby Jordan…they’re both so precious. But lately, people have been asking Sunny, “So, do you have baby fever yet?” What they’re asking is whether or not this recent spate of babies is causing my wife to want another. To her credit, she always replies, “No, I have two toddlers that occupy most of my time,” or something to that effect.
You know what I say?
Who cares about her? What about me? I think I have baby fever. I’d have 2 or 3 more babies if it was up to me! There’s nothing like a precious newborn. Don’t get me wrong…I LOVE our two children and if that’s all the Lord sees fit to bless us with, so be it. But I love being a father and I want a big family. I’ve even said I wouldn’t mind having twins again someday (although I probably need to give that some serious thought!).
Baby fever. Anybody know of a cure?
already & not yet 
Are you serious????This is the first that I have heard about that!
Change a diaper, set your alarm for 2am three nights in a row. That could help it.
So far your returns on your investments are pretty high.1 trip to hospital = 2 kids2 trips to hospital = ___ kidsDon’t worry about setting your alarm. Jordan has slept through the night ever since she was born.
Dude, seriously? Another kid? We don’t even have one yet!
Let me get this straight: you’re a youth minister, you work with teens, and you still want more kids?Dude, you’re terminal.
I know what you mean Jason. I’m the one in our family who’s ready…like right now ready…like let’s start and not stop till we get to 4 ready!
p.s. Don’t tell Tori though!
Seriously though, Joshua would have more fun with a brother around and AK with a sister. 4-6 is a good number. Hey we got 2 down and 4 to go if I can get Stacy to see things my way, but then again I am not the one who has to get pregnant.
Mike,I know. Something’s wrong with me.Jon, 6! Wow. I’d like to try again, but I wonder if we’d have twins again. After the first bunch, your odds of “doubling up” again increases exponentially.
Sunny, Don’t play. You know my heart’s desire, woman. 2 down, 2 to go, right?
TH,I’m here for you man. We should start our own support group. With me, you & Jon, we have 3 charter members.
I could definitly go for more. I’m just saying not right now! I think that Joshua and Abby Kate need to be a little bit older.
I’m the only member currently at 0. I’ll definitely have some catching up to do!
You never know, man. We went from 0 to 2 overnight. Crazy things happen, dude.
