These Days....

Well, these days have been crazy! Last week, my grandma stayed w/ us while Ryan was in Chicago... Well, long story short, I got food poisoning! It was the definition of AWFUL! It hit me like a ton of bricks and w/in a few hours, I was calling my mom begging her to come take care of Jackson because I couldn't keep anything down. I felt so helpless. Fortunately about 24 hours later and lots of TLC from my mom and grandma, I felt better. This weekend, Ryan and I shopped for cars. Our lease is coming up on my Accord, and we decided to get a bigger ride that can better accommodate 2 car seats. We're still undecided but I picked 6 of my "favorites." Now, Ryan is going to work his master negotiation and research skills to find us a good deal.

Today, I spent the morning while Jackson was at school packing for Brazil! It's still 16 days away but I like to be prepared! :) Plus, I'm so excited!

Jackson has been going thru a funk. He doesn't want to eat - basically nothing. He snacks occasionally, drinks well, but he isn't eating! I hope it's just teething and he'll get over this soon, but it's really frustrating. He's never been a good eater but this is just ridiculous! Part of me wonders if this is a rebellious thing since we've stopped his most favorite thing in the world - TV.

Just 2 more days til we find out if we're buying pink or blue!!! TO BE CONTINUED!!

Ryan captured this amazing pic of our "small" cat - Calvin. Too cool not to share!
