Family pressure (this one is funny)
So I got a text on Sunday from Niece14 saying "so, Niece10 wants to know if and when you and Uncle DH are going to have kids"
These are the same two who plotted out my marriage over 4 years ago. Their best friends (also sisters, same ages) had a single uncle that they wanted to fix me up with- b/c then they would all be in a wedding AND be "cousins." However, they didn't know that I was not quite the uncle's type (he's more into guys).
A couple of months after that, their brother (Nephew12A) pulled me aside at Nephew 12Bs First Communion party to give me dating advice. Yes, an 8 year old boy was trying to get his favorite aunt a date. He was VERY sweet and said "well, i was thinking about this, and do you work with any boys?" I said "yes, but one is married and one is moving." he said "well, i bet if you went on a date with him he wouldn't want to move any more." So I swore him to secrecy that I had a first date set the following week with DH. The kid didn't say a word for 2 months!!
So these three siblings, Niece14, Niece10 and Nephew 12A, are now plotting out when they will get a new cousin. Niece10 called yesterday to ask again, this time saying "my brother really wants to know when we can expect a cousin". I got her to confess that Niece14 is the one who started all the interest 
No pressure from any of the adults, just the kids
Re: Family pressure (this one is funny)
haha, that's a riot! My youngest brother gave me a similar "hard time" about 2 weeks before I married DH. He basically asked when he got to be an uncle (he was 10 at the time) and how we knew when God would send us a baby (too funny...)
Very cute that your nieces and nephews are so concerned for you!
awww that's so cute!
Gotta love kids!
SS4 a few weeks ago asked " Mama, why don't you have a baby yet? You and daddy have been married a long time now." I said Bug, go ask daddy. So he goes out into the garage and says "Daddy, We need to talk" Dh says" Whats up" Bug says "Why doesn't mama have a baby yet?" DH says "She needs to finish school first" Bug sighs heavily, rolls his eyes and stomps into the house and says to me " Dad says you need to finish school first, and that is going to take a very long long time, and I'm not happy about this right now" and proceeded to fold his arms and go in the corner and pout. When he decided to go outside DH went to say something to SS4 and he put his hand up to my husband and says "No dad, I'm not talking to you. I'm mad that you won't let mama have a baby" and walked away.
I swear this was not started by me. SS4 started asking me questions out of the blue. Little do the kids know though, DH and I have decided that with my medical conditions we don't want to wait any longer to start trying. So hopefully soon I'll have a exciting announcement to share!!.
