If you know me, you know I’m an intense person. When I start thinking about something or learning something, I want to know EVERYTHING there is to know about that thing. When I care about someone, I care very deeply. When I’m excited, I’m thrilled! And when I’m nervous… well, I freak out. Poor Tim. […]

I wanted to take a break from this crazy week to tell you all that Jack pooped in the potty tonight! Actually, I was able to stop him from pooping in the tub again, thanks to some of your advice! So, thanks! I never imagined myself encouraging someone to poop. But I did! And it […]

On Tuesday, the most freezingest day of the year (high was -3 with a significantly lower wind chill), we decided to go see Tangled. I love a good movie and I had heard this was a good one, so I thought it would be fun to take Jack! We bundled up and felt like we […]
