just our day to day life
Part two of Jenson visiting Santa went much better, thankfully. We went to breakfast with Santa at Rusty Bucket and I think he actually had positive feelings towards Santa by the end of the event. It was really the perfect situation for Jenson because he …
Since Jenson was already a pro at decorating cookies from when he stayed at Nana and Papaw’s, I thought I’d let him help me make the sugar cookies. I mixed up the dough one day and let him help me cut some of the shapes …
I don’t think we are going to make it to Wildlights at the Zoo this year – with the warm weather, the crowds have been crazy, and well, I’m giant pregnant. We were supposed to meet some of Jenson’s friends at the Worthington Mall to …
The Columbus Crew went to the MLS Cup Championship again – the second time in 7 years – and we got to go to the game again. The last time was a bit more of an adventure because the game was in L.A., and this …

I haven’t been great about documenting this pregnancy. Meaning, I haven’t. I’ve taken pictures about 5 times, and have a pregnancy journal with 4x more blank pages than written on. This is compared to my pregnancy with Jenson…where I took a picture every single week…even …
The Sunday after Thanksgiving, we had our nephews baptism to attend. The timing was going to be wonky for Jenson’s nap, so we elected to skip mass in favor of making the drive later, so that Jenson would sleep on the way for an early …
We visited my family over Thanksgiving since we aren’t going to get to go back for Christmas because it will be too close to my due date. I don’t wish to deliver in Youngstown… We decided at the last minute to head back on Tuesday …
