Erin and Ben recently spoke to People regarding their experience having Helen (who is now 2 years old).
“I always wanted to have kids and it was also my biggest fear my whole life; I was terrified at the whole thought of pregnancy and childbirth just terrified me,” Erin said. “But I wanted a family desperately. So that was a hard place to be. It was really difficult.”
“And then when it happened, it felt like this huge release. Like, ‘Well I don’t have to worry about that anymore — that decision has been made for me. So she’s on her way.’ And then it was just joy. It was just absolute joy and it was a wonderful experience and I just don’t know what our life would look like without [Helen] in it.”
As for whether Ben and Erin plan to expand their family, they don’t appear to be in any kind of rush. “It was a surprise the first time, [so] I figure it’ll be a surprise the next time too,” Erin said. The couple has also expressed that they’d be open to adopting a child. “We knew that if children weren’t in the plan biologically, we would adopt. If we couldn’t adopt for some reason, having each other would be enough,” Erin said.
For now, it seems like Erin and Ben are focused on enjoying life with little Helen, and we couldn’t be happier for them! Raising a 2-year-old isn’t the only huge project in their life at the moment, though!
