Action Jackson or should I say Accident Jackson :(

Last night I gave Jackson a bath and at the end of the bath Jackson will let the water out and play until its all gone. Well all the water was out and he began to jump up and down, I said okay its time to get out many times until the last jump...he slipped and hit the bottom of his chin on the tub and bit his tongue on both sides. It was bleeding pretty bad and later when I actually got a glance at it he had 2 huge flaps of skin hanging on either side of his tongue. He really didn't cry much more than about a minute, which I guess is good, but I felt so bad for him. He also had a little cut on the under part of his chin where he hit. All this happened and tomorrow we are getting our family pictures done at Scott and Courtney's. Nice timing, huh. He's been okay today so far but I was pretty worried about him eating since on the way to Daycare/work he was eating my muffin and cried quite a bit while eating it. Poor Jackson :(

I can remember as a child that I had lots of injuries my self...wonder if he takes after me.
Oh one more thing anybody have any suggestions for a padded bath tub??? Porcelain is not workin' so well for us!

Total Money Makeover

Okay so I didn't think I would ever do this, but I broke down and bought the Dave Ramsey book "Total Money Makeover." I got a gift card for my birthday and Jeff and I were at Barnes and Noble last weekend and had heard great things about this book so I bought it. I never thought the total money makeover would work for us since we are not good at following directions especially with money. I had really good intentions for Jeff and I to read this book together. I opened it up and even read the first 2-3 chapters aloud while lying in bed. Note to self - don't read aloud while lying in bed...one or both might fall asleep. Everyone tells me how this is so good and it really helps them out with finances, but I just don't see how it is possible for our particular family. Maybe I need to read a little more to figure out how the process really works.

On a side note Jeff and I on the drive home the night of buying the book had a great discussion about money and how each of us spend and why we spend the way we do. I think it was helpful especially since it all goes back to either before we met each other or while we were dating. If only we new the outcome of spending money we didn't have before we did it.

I am not saying I won't finish the book, but its really frustrating when I had hopes of both Jeff and I reading it together and feeling like he isn't as excited as I am about it. He did say on our drive that talking about money makes him really depressed and worried about the future. I am not a worrier so it is really hard to understand. Hopefully I will have a good update once I finish the book :) Wish me luck!!
