Mark your calendars, kids

Nick has mentioned that we will get engaged before my plan of 2012. He also has said that we won't get engaged unless we can afford to get married.

He just recently mentioned that 26 is the perfect age to have a kid. That makes 2013 The Year of The First Child (not the year of the snake like those Chinese want to tell you).

It's crazy to think about having a kid in the next four years. Four years ago, Nick and I had been dating for a year. Four years from now, I don't even know where I'll be living or where I'll be working.

But Nick'll be there. Nick and a baby.
