Happy couple Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey are planning on starting a family — just not for a while. Cannon revealed this week that he and his songbird spouse are just too busy to have a baby right now. "We absolutely plan to have a family.

"But we gotta prioritize, because that's a major, major priority."That's like the only priority in life, when you think about it, is starting and raising a family. We want to make sure everything is out of the way and that we don't have any distractions."

While Carey, 40, is touring the country promoting her latest CD, "Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel," the 29-year-old Cannon is busy hosting "America's Got Talent" and his new morning radio show.That leaves the couple, who celebrates their second anniversary in May, little time to spend together, said Cannon.

"She's on tour right now, I'm doing a bunch of stuff, so eventually we want to be able to say it's time to have a kid, and set everything up," he said. "But we're definitely moving toward [it]. We got our house in L.A., and we got a house [in New York City], established and close to schools," he added. "So we take all of that stuff into consideration."
