So Chris and I went and had ourselves a little baby! Now that Baby Jackson is here, we begin our adventures in parenthood. The good, the not-so-good, and the just plain dirty diapers – all for you to enjoy!

Cry Me A River

Last night, I cried, no BAWLED, just thinking about the book “I’ll Love You Forever”. I’m talking a full-on choking, sobbing, shoulders shaking crying fit. Let me reiterate – I didn’t have the book, I was just thinking about the book. Chris and I were talking about books for Jack’s library and I mentioned that one. Chris said he wasn’t familiar with it, so I started to tell him about it and I lost it. I think he was really confused on why I would want to add a book to Jack’s library that makes me cry like that.

Tonight, Chris was replacing a tree in our front yard with a new tree. He dug up the original tree, which had just started to get its spring leaves. He came inside to get the saw to cut the tree up to dispose of it. I burst into tears – I told him he couldn’t cut the tree up! It was just starting to live again! I asked him to plant it in the back yard and he told me the type of tree it is was too big for our back yard. I was literally just beside myself thinking of this tree and how made it through the cold winter months only to see the first days of spring and then die. The tree must be saved. Chris took the tree to his parents’ house and will plant it there tomorrow.

Hormones, anyone?
