Baby Steps Towards a Trophy Wife

My goal at the beginning of this was to eventually become a Trophy Wife. Well, I haven't lost any weight, I AM starting to excercise more and be more active, and I actually made dinner for my hubby last night. AND a late night snack. Wow.
And lately I've been thinking about having another baby. So much so as to make an appointment with my Ob-Gyn and have my IUD taken out. What really drove me to do it was actually something so embarassing and materialistic that you would really shake your head at. But I found THE CUTEST double stroller and car seat, and will only fit a toddler in the front until they are 50 pounds, so I want to make sure the next baby will be close to my daughter's age. The only problem is that my doc is on vaca until September 10th. I'm so impatient I want it out now!
I've decided my next pregnancy is NOT going to be a repeat of my first. I'm going to actually work out, eat healthy and not be a depressing fat slob of a preggo. Truthfully, I can't wait - which is really really odd because I never wanted a second child. But something just clicked in me the other day and now that's all I can think about (and not just for the stroller and car seat!). I'm checking out pregnancy magazines, fashion, everything. I don't know why I got this in my head, but it's driving me.
If I had a boy, I would most likely name him Gabriel Dolce. Girl names I like are Sofia, Isabella, Angelina... but at the same time I would want something unique and different. I think the new baby's name is the hardest thing for me to pick out.
Anyway, I'll stop dreaming. I realize this might not be as easy as I hope it will be, I realize there may be some bumps along the way and we might not get pregnant as soon as I want to be, but hopefully I get pregnant soon and I'll have a second little baby in this world to care for.
