That's Why I Married Him

A few weeks ago, I went to two different grocery stores and both times forgot fresh basil. Not wanting to go again, I text Jon and asked him to grab some on his way home. When he walked in, he had the dried kind. Doesn't exactly work for pesto. I told him it was no big deal, I would go get some later or the next day. He was determined to help out, so he went back. When he came home the second time, he had bought me this baby.

I will never need fresh basil again. Problem solved. And that is why I married this man.

I've Made Up My Mind

I feel like if I announce this I will actually do it.  After Jon starts clinicals full time (like September-ish),  I am going to start the certification for childbirth educator.  I've picked the organization I am  going to use.  I'm way excited about it.  I really hope to be able to teach women they are in charge of their pregnancy and birth.  And it can be a wonderful experience.Check out CBI's site here

Moments Like These

Vanessa has started taking toys from kids, especially Benson.  It makes me really sad.  She never used to do this.  I guess that is part of growing up and learning how to be around other kids.  But look at that face!  Benson looks completely crushed.  He's gonna have to toughen up to survive this girl.

A few happy moments amongst a long, hard couple weeks at the Brady home.  Filled with frustration, stress, sickness, whining and crying.  But, I at least, am feeling better so hopefully we can all get back on our feet now.

Can You Believe It?!

Can you believe I was this big?!  I just found this going through and editing past pictures.   This was taken exactly 11 days before Benson was born.  I am rocking that belly for sure.  Holy crap
