Penguin pajamas

So Chris dressed Samarah in pajamas the other night.. it was the first time he put her in them cuz they are more wintery pajamas.. and when i saw what she had on I ran to my room... came out and had chris take a picture!!

We were twinners! they both are footy pajamas, have penguins with scarves, and stars all over it!! haha! 

samarah getting even closer to walking! video!

This is the first time she ever stood up on her own without holding onto anything and then walked!! Look at the HUGE smile on her face at the end of the video, so cute!!

How to decide when to have baby #2

Now that Samarah is 1 the question of..'when you gonna give her another brother or sister?' seems to be asked on a weekly basis.

I don't know when.

Honestly? I'm scared. I don't know if I want to go through that again. I didn't even have that bad of an experience but I am like a lil bit traumatized from it! Its not the weight, i'm ok with the weight i'm at. I had some issues after down in that area obviously.. i couldn't walk very well for weeks. i couldn't walk down to see my baby in the nursery.. I don't know if that contributed to the post partum I had. But I am scared I don't want to go through post partum again! Mine didn't get to severe thank goodness, i never had thoughts of harming her but i just was flat of emotion. I felt like I didn't want her, like having a baby sucked. I don't want to go through that again. now she is the most amazing incredible thing in my life, but it wasn't like that for months :(

I think that we are only going to have two kids.. So do I just go ahead and have them close together? Do I wait till my body is more healed and I feel more mentally ready? Will I ever feel mentally ready? Will 2 years or 5 years make a difference in how I feel? Will my body ever heal completely? How much time do I give myself to feel ready?

Too many questions that I don't know how to answer :( if anyone has comment feel free to write them. I'm in a little funk about it in case you can't tell.

Guess who is almost walking!!

Input on a name

For Chris family and friends you are not allowed to answer this beacause you are biased with the name!

For others...

Does the name Kendrick (for a boy) sound like a white name or another ethnicity's name? if you heard the name would you think white skin, brown skin, black skin...

Comment me your thoughts!!

No i'm not pregnant. i'm just always picking up names and debating them for when the next one does come around. don't get any ideas. i don't want to go through that again anytime soon!
