trying on parenthood
So the goods are starting to roll in. Many friends and parents at the school have been offering up their baby hand-me-downs and we are accepting. Yesterday we got a crib, backpack, high chair, and a few other random things. Damon has enjoyed trying them out with his guinea pig, Malcolm, who is quite a sport. They trotted around the house all evening with Malcolm in the backpack. We also received a super-nice fancy Bugaboo stroller from our friends. We are pretty lucky. We just need to find storage for all of these items. Damon also painted what will be the baby's room as well, and it looks good (in photo). Next weekend is the shower and I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone and having a little fun. Things have been pretty heavy around here for the last couple of weeks, and I am looking forward to focusing and preparing during these 8.5 weeks that are left until the baby arrives. I am still feeling pretty good, but heavy.

goodbye jackson
The best kitty in the whole world died on Friday, December 28th. Jackson was at least 13 years old and this day was the saddest, most heartbreaking day I have ever experienced. I will miss him incredibly. He was loving and devoted and we had a very special connection. I felt he really understood me and he used to lick the tears off of my face when I was sad. Goodbye, J.J. You will forever live in my heart.
