Let me know what my options are for the wife and I (plus baby).
The only times of the year that you may have problems just purchasing tickets would be the last week of April- first week of May of every year (Golden Week) and the period near New Years.

Any time other than that should not be an issue, as others have mentioned, lots of trains.
