Inkedupmommas getting married y'all! A WPJ & Disneyfamilymoon PTR!OMG, TR link is UP!

[inkedupmomma]

Love your answer! I asked, and I'm not scared of what you had to say. I can understand being terrified of a c-section after you just witness one not so great, or wondering about being able to take care of a baby again since your kids are much more independent now, but it's nice that you are open to the idea since it seems to be really important to Bob.

I want another one, and I want them close together for that reason you mentioned, I don't want to get "out" of the baby stage and then have to go back to it. I prefer to just do it all at once. If the January Disney trip does happen I'd love to start trying then, as it would be a great "souvenir" to bring back (we tried it last time, but were off by a month. ). However, there will be the problem of a teenager sleeping in the next bed...

I hope it all works out well for you and Bob.

Thanks Mel! and thanks for the FB add Yes, a souvenir would be nice.. but scary..idk, I'm older, more stable, and will be MARRIED and I'm more scared than ever to have a baby~! I should mention though, I think part of my real apprehension (beside the $$$) is Kayla! She does NOT want me to have a baby at all and the mere mention of it sends her into a panic attack She does not "want things to change". Bless her soul the poor thing. She is finally a daddy's girl, a arae thing after 2 men walked out of her life I know she should not get a say, but I'd be lying if I didn't say it affects my feelings on it. With that said, I think as she gets older, or even once shes off to college she will love having a little one looking up to her! I also love that they would all have each other. SO complicated :/

Baby pictures are always awesome but even better when it's your own niece...... does she have that great new baby scent?

Nice Kouzinna pictures... I already have that one scheduled (never done before)... it looks really good...

I love the ring and the groom's clothing... very dapper...

Hmmm... not to get up into your business... are you putting the baby question up to a vote or doing a poll...?

I'm just going to say imho, one of the few things I wish is that I had had one more...(yes I can still have one... but I now have a newly 18 year old, - and although the 10 year old would think it was cool... I'm not sure I want to be an AARP member when my child is in High School...- but that's just me...)

but you are a good bit younger so if this is a poll...

I vote that you go for it...

no no.. I don't NEED a Dis poll, I already know yall are on team Bob lol!!!! But, what you said is another big influence, SO many woman tell me they regret not going for the third baby. At this rate though, Kayla will also be a teenager when I have another baby. and while yes, i am only 31, I am tired. Age aside, 2 kids, a dog, a fulltime job and disney planning makes me tired, adding an infant into that makes me scream inside. Then I see my sister nursing that sweet smelling baby(oh YES she does have that sweet baby scent) and it makes me want to grab her and hide and nurse her myself lol! LOL at the aarp member comment though. I literally almost peed!

This whole life thing kills me sometimes. I wish I could easily say yes, i want a baby. But I feel so much guilt saying it!

No prob on the facebook add. I just friended the other Jen and I saw your name and I knew we HAD to be facebook friends.

I totally understand about Kayla. It's so sweet that she became a daddy's girl with Bob. It's true that after 2 men walked out of her life, she could have been apprehensive about getting close to a third one. Obviously I don't know her (besides through your TRs), so I can't say how she would react for real once a new baby arrived, but I can tell you about our own experience. Ron already has a 13 y.o daughter who is also very much a daddy's girl. When she was younger she used to tell Ron that she did not want him to get a new girlfriend, but luckily she accepted me with no problem. She knew we wanted to have kids of our own, but the day we told her I was pregnant she went through about 25 different emotions in 5 minutes. Not only was she an only child, but she also had NO cousins on either her mom's or dad's side until a year ago. Needless to say, she has a very special place in her grand-parents' life. She was not happy about losing that place, and wasn't sure how she felt about having a sibling. Now she loves being a big sister. She helped us so much all summer. She's away for school now, but we skype with her and when we put Peanut up to the webcam DD13's face lits up. I can only hope that after the initial shock and possible jealousy, that Kayla would turn around and be a very loving big sister.

 

[eandesmom]

The baby is adorable

And I am loving the grooms attire, just smashing! kouzzina is one of my favorite breakfasts in the world, so much so ill be there in just 9 days!

Ah Kayla and a new baby. It's a hard thing and could be hard at first, especially at her age. We are a Brady bunch family and used to get asked a lot if we were going to have an "ours". For us, we worried it would throw all 4 of them off. Plus 4 is really enough lol! I would imagine her big NO reaction has a lot to do with fear, fear of how her relationship with Bob might change and that's understandable. Time and action will help that, you'd just have to trust you all could get through it and I'm positive you could.

 

[WDWaddictt]

Hi...
Love the baby pics. She is gorgeous!! Very cute.

Bob's ring is so cool and I love the wedding attire...very handsome. I can see everything tying in together and all I can say is your weeding is going to be gorgeous and a lot of fun!!!

I think having a split day "Boy time, Girl time" is so cool....I think I may have to steal that idea

Now when it comes to you having a baby...you are going to have to do what is in your heart and don't worry about pleasing or hurting anyone. If you want it then embrace the idea and then everyone else will. Bob will just have to schedule one on one time with Kayla to ensure they still keep a tight relationship. If you don't want to have another baby for your OWN personal reasons then don't. Because it will just become another stress in your life you don't need. Hard decision for you. Good luck, a "Disney Made" baby would so fun though...lol

 

[Trentmom]

Bobs Ring is nice and sleek looking

Love the baby pics.. Such a cutie

Your breakfast at Kouzzina looks so good!! Jack is such a character


Trent has same shirt as jack..Good Taste

 

[starann]

Future baby bro/sis, huh? Interesting!!! I was wondering if you guys wanted to have a kid together, but didn't want to ask. Do you have any more specific plans?

ok, phew, I wasn't the only one who thought this!!! LOL!


You really should have shown the ring picture, then the pict of Bob in his suit (VERY handsome hubby to be you got there!) THEN the baby, cause once I saw the baby (and I LOVED how happy Jack looked with the baby) I really could think of nothing but the cuteness of a new baby!!!!

I've alwaysheard mixed things about Kouzinna. We have a Greek place literally 5 mins from us (Yanni's, which used to be Gus's Crossroads in case you ever eant tohead north on 309 a little bit....the food is REALLY good!) so going to WDW forexpensive greek food is not appealing to me!

 

[starann]

Our 1st 2 boys were NOT planned...we were not married (yet) and they came so soon after each other...they are only 14mo apart. Looking back, I didn't know any different and we managed to get by with 2 kids under 2.

Casey WAS planned as we knew we wanted a 3rd (i'd go for a 4th if my body would let me ). I'd be lieing if I said having a 3rd doesn't come with it's own set of challenges (we had to get cars that fit 3carseat/boosters... .oh wait, you have a Loser Cruiser, aka minivan like me, so that won't matter for you!)..........and 1 boy wanted a brother and one wanted a sister. Obviously one of them was upset (really...when he was presented with his newest baby brother, he heard it was a boy and went "ohhhh" as in oh, that is so not what I wanted mom) but once he held his little brother, he was hooked and now is SUCH a HUGE help and really loves having Casey around.

It was a lot easier to deal with Casey when he was an immobile baby, as I wore him where ever we needed to go and whipped out my milk supply where ever I needed to. Now that he is a on the go toddler, there is more planning (snacks, bottles, sippy cup, toys to keep him occupied) that goes into where we go, but I can honestly say I wouldn't trade ANY of it for him. For us he has completed us as a family. Financially we should have stopped at 2 (well really 1), and we have no college savings for any of them but I try not to worry about that...I paid my own college bills and appreciated it all the more. I just focus on loving them to the best of my ability and work everyday at being a good mom.

I'm sure Kayla will come around if it is a reality, and knowing how awesome you and Bob are, I have no doubts that she will handle a baby bro/sis just fine....after the 'ewwwwww gross' thoughts that will come to mind once it really happens!!! LOL!

Kayla and Bob (and Jack and Bob) have always been close. Keep in mind he was my BFF for 15 years before we dated. Bob was always their favorite "Uncle", so the transition was super easy. I can also only HOPE that she will come around.. otherwise we're going to have a long road ahead

The baby is adorable
thank you!
And I am loving the grooms attire, just smashing! kouzzina is one of my favorite breakfasts in the world, so much so ill be there in just 9 days!
looking forward to a more recent review!

thanks for your vote of confidence! Some days I think it is more than possible! other days it scares me!

Hi...
Love the baby pics. She is gorgeous!! Very cute.
thank you, I am so in love!

Bob's ring is so cool and I love the wedding attire...very handsome. I can see everything tying in together and all I can say is your weeding is going to be gorgeous and a lot of fun!!!
thank you so much!
I think having a split day "Boy time, Girl time" is so cool....I think I may have to steal that idea
we did it last year, where bob took jack and i took Kayla and we loved it! I may even try a few hours like that too again in addition!

Now when it comes to you having a baby...you are going to have to do what is in your heart and don't worry about pleasing or hurting anyone. If you want it then embrace the idea and then everyone else will. Bob will just have to schedule one on one time with Kayla to ensure they still keep a tight relationship. If you don't want to have another baby for your OWN personal reasons then don't. Because it will just become another stress in your life you don't need. Hard decision for you. Good luck, a "Disney Made" baby would so fun though...lol

Again, some days it's all I want.. other days it is the scariest thought ever!I think everything will happen the way its suppose to!

Bobs Ring is nice and sleek looking
it's funny, it was literally the only ring that didn't look silly on him! I love it and it was my first choice!

Love the baby pics.. Such a cutie
edible. all I can say. and thank you!
Your breakfast at Kouzzina looks so good!! Jack is such a character
hes so silly that kid! I wish I could recall what started that whole series of silliness

Trent has same shirt as jack..Good Taste

great minds Kel

ok, phew, I wasn't the only one who thought this!!! LOL!


You really should have shown the ring picture, then the pict of Bob in his suit (VERY handsome hubby to be you got there!) THEN the baby, cause once I saw the baby (and I LOVED how happy Jack looked with the baby) I really could think of nothing but the cuteness of a new baby!!!!
I know! I know! I know! All i do is stare at pics and videos of her all day! I want to keep her! and thanks for the cute hubs compliment, I likes him lol

I've alwaysheard mixed things about Kouzinna. We have a Greek place literally 5 mins from us (Yanni's, which used to be Gus's Crossroads in case you ever eant tohead north on 309 a little bit....the food is REALLY good!) so going to WDW forexpensive greek food is not appealing to me!

I find the prices there reasonable! and the servings were pretty big! I mean, obviously a local place would be cheaper, but I think it's worth it!

Our 1st 2 boys were NOT planned...we were not married (yet) and they came so soon after each other...they are only 14mo apart. Looking back, I didn't know any different and we managed to get by with 2 kids under 2.
neither of mine were planned either.. lol

Casey WAS planned as we knew we wanted a 3rd (i'd go for a 4th if my body would let me ). I'd be lieing if I said having a 3rd doesn't come with it's own set of challenges (we had to get cars that fit 3carseat/boosters... .oh wait, you have a Loser Cruiser, aka minivan like me, so that won't matter for you!)..........and 1 boy wanted a brother and one wanted a sister.

Oh yeah.. Kayla wants a girl and jack a boy.. Jack would be fine with either though... Kayla might have a coronary if its a boy lol! I think she could at least try to relate better to a girl? idk?

It was a lot easier to deal with Casey when he was an immobile baby, as I wore him where ever we needed to go and whipped out my milk supply where ever I needed to. Now that he is a on the go toddler, there is more planning (snacks, bottles, sippy cup, toys to keep him occupied) that goes into where we go, but I can honestly say I wouldn't trade ANY of it for him.

I just focus on loving them to the best of my ability and work everyday at being a good mom.
I hear ya on ALL of that! But I agree, I'm not worried about college! No where does it say that is a must do. We will help where we can, but thats all we can do! I think I can do the toddler thing again.. I'm pretty damn good with kids! It's all I know! I "had a third" for 5 years and managed just fine!
I'm sure Kayla will come around if it is a reality, and knowing how awesome you and Bob are, I have no doubts that she will handle a baby bro/sis just fine....after the 'ewwwwww gross' thoughts that will come to mind once it really happens!!! LOL!

she totally already had those ew thoughts already! lol

 

[starann]

WOW, I'm suprised that she wants a sister....IF it ends up happening and it is a boy, you can 'sell' her on the boy bby saying that means she will always be Bob's little girl....gotta know how to spin it (I told my son it he had gotten a sister he would have had to give away 1/2 his toys to make room for all the pink stuff we would have had to get!!!)!!!!!

LOL!

 

[KatMark]

Jenn, the baby is adorable.

And, as far as you and Bob, you'll both know if and when is the right time to add an addition to the family. First, you both need to get adjusted to being married, etc.

Love your plans for Kouzzina...I've heard great things about it.

 

[OneTreeHillAddict]

I've been considering one more little one too, but I am scared to death to start over. My last one was a C section after two natural and I did not like that procedure one bit. I probably wouldn't be allowed to have a 4th child, as an old woman, in the natural way after the C section. You and Bob would make beautiful babies! I'd go for it. Plus the cousins could grow up together and be playmates.

 

[ronnmel]

Kayla and Bob (and Jack and Bob) have always been close. Keep in mind he was my BFF for 15 years before we dated. Bob was always their favorite "Uncle", so the transition was super easy. I can also only HOPE that she will come around.. otherwise we're going to have a long road ahead

I remembered that you and Bob have known each other for a long time, but I had no idea that him and the kids were already close. That's good.

 

[shan23877]

Back from a busy few weeks and caught up!

I totally understand the apprehension about having another one. We've been trying for some time now and even though I want another one, I'm also totally scared about the idea of everything changing. It's hard! The way I look at is this: we don't do anything to prevent it happening, and if it does then it was meant to be. If not we have one healthy kid and that's more than a lot of people get.

Love the baby pics, so sweet. There's just something about babies that makes me melt.

 

[PracPerfPatricia]

You will decide the best thing for you and Bob and Kayla and Jack...

I'm still on the baby side... and I do totally appreciate Kayla's feelings and her reasons for them...a lot of stuff inside there... so maybe you wait just a little... but once she feel's secure about Bob's affections and that that isn't going to change... she might feel a little brother or sister is an awesome thing...

and there are your own feelings and Bob's to consider... It would be cool to make a baby together... oh wow... I meant that emotionally... and now I'm worried that's like moving out of PG territory... Alrighty then...

SO

When are we going to get some Wedding Updates...???

Love, love wedding planning and disneymoon updates... Bring it...

LOL!

I tell them both now that they are my favorite..my favorite boy and my fav girl.... if it's a girl, she will be my favorite BIG girl.... it's amazing how much spinning you have to do as a parent lol!! I think she wants a girl because i have sisters, and a girl HAS to be less annoying than Jack was/is LOLOL! Also,main drive, CLOTHES, she wants to dress baby girl!

Jenn, the baby is adorable.
thank you, I am IN LOVE@
And, as far as you and Bob, you'll both know if and when is the right time to add an addition to the family. First, you both need to get adjusted to being married, etc.
I agree Kat! Yet, I don't want to wait too much longer..
Love your plans for Kouzzina...I've heard great things about it.

We rather enjoyed it, and the price for OOP is just right!

I've been considering one more little one too, but I am scared to death to start over. My last one was a C section after two natural and I did not like that procedure one bit. I probably wouldn't be allowed to have a 4th child, as an old woman, in the natural way after the C section. You and Bob would make beautiful babies! I'd go for it. Plus the cousins could grow up together and be playmates.

C-section scares the ooogley boogely out of me! I think if you want one, you should go for it, You are lucky to be at home, and even teach at home, so you could def work that into the whole deal

I remembered that you and Bob have known each other for a long time, but I had no idea that him and the kids were already close. That's good.

Oh yes!!! they loved their "uncle" Bob! (I refer to all my friends as aunt/uncle). Bob was there for jack's birth, when Kayla was 3 and in the hospital, when Jack had surgery, bday patries, holidays... lots of stuff!
Silly Bob and baby Jack

Back from a busy few weeks and caught up!

Welcome back! I hear ya on BUSY, thats all life is anymore for us lately! and I think that is the same approach we will be taking! Not going to not try... I gotta say though, I've gotten pregnant 2 x now, and easily! With jack I was on birth control!!!! So if history repeats itself, we wont be not trying for very long.. or life will be hilarious and it wont happen! wouldn't that be ironic!

You will decide the best thing for you and Bob and Kayla and Jack...
I'm thinking it will come to me in a dream! Actually, from day one I have dreamt of our daughter, and she no lie looks like Boo from Monsters Inc..only human..isn't that crazy! and that dream is recurring!

I'm still on the baby side... and I do totally appreciate Kayla's feelings and her reasons for them...a lot of stuff inside there... so maybe you wait just a little... but once she feel's secure about Bob's affections and that that isn't going to change... she might feel a little brother or sister is an awesome thing...
We're hoping, God, I may even let her choose the name, nursery, everything lol!

and there are your own feelings and Bob's to consider... It would be cool to make a baby together... oh wow... I meant that emotionally... and now I'm worried that's like moving out of PG territory... Alrighty then...
hehehehhehe
SO

When are we going to get some Wedding Updates...???

Love, love wedding planning and disneymoon updates... Bring it...

now!! Been busy doing stuff so I oculd update you guys

couldn't agree more.

hehe, see above!!

 

[inkedupmomma]

til the wedding that is! and 96 until Disney!!

I last left you off with a studly Bob in his suit and I will now start you off with a studly Jack in his suit

OMG! Are yall just wanting to eat him up as much as I do? I honestly could not even contain myself when I saw him all dressed up! His suit is the same as bob's, although that shirt isn't the same, but it was all I had at the time! I have since bought him a black skull bow tie! I'll get a pic of it soon, too lazy right now!

In other wedding news, Bobs mom and have started working on a sign similar to this

While Bob and his dad worked on this

All of that will be for our center pieces They have been hard at work, and so far everything is turning our great!

Yesterday we went to one of the bakeries on the list for our cake, and the appointment went great! Not only CAN we do one cake with cupcakes, BUT there is no extra charge for red velvet or cannolli filling!

and here are some pics.. nothing will look like this, but who doesn't like to look at sweets...

Top cake which is pound cake with butter cream frosting, and then 4 sides of filling choices, raspberry (blech) lemon(surprisingly blech) chocolate mousse (NOMS) and Canoli (NOMS)

Now the cupcake choices which are regular cake, yellow or chocolate with vanilla or chocolate frosting

The chocolate frosting was yuck, but both cakes were yum, so we will sick wit the vanilla frosting most likely. She also said we can bring in purple edible sugar dust to use.. so I may look for designs.. or I may not lol

and last but not least, the red velvet with cream cheese icing

Our final choice (though, don't hold me to it just yet) is the pound cake with canoli filling for the cake layer, then a mix of cupcakes! We couldn't choose just one, and she said we could mix! So a mix we will do! Now I just need to email her the ideas I want!

I have to jet for work, but have a real life update, and honeymoon one later... hopefully later!

OH, and invites are ordered! I'll post the preview too!

 

[KatMark]

My, oh my. Can Jack please be my date for the next wedding I have to attend? He is too stinkin' cute.

Love the cake ideas and the cupcakes. And thanks for making me sit here and drool as I'm about to eat my boring Fiber One bar.

 

[ronnmel]

Oh my! Jack looks handsome! And I love how Kayla is rocking it behind him!

Canolli filling. Red Velvet cupcake with cream cheese frosting. DROOL!!

 

[OneTreeHillAddict]

I LOVE Jack's hat! He sure is handsome and his suit, OMGosh.

The red velvet cupcake looks heavenly.
