Our trip to Nannie's house!

Izzy Boo and I went up to Decatur, AL for a couple of days to visit with Nannie - my grandmother. This was Izzy Boo's first overnight trip, Elizabeth had a lot of fun once the initial seperation anxiety went away.

Sitting on the bed in our bedroom, my drooly girl! What'd ya say?!? Drool. Notice the drool ring around her neck. Nice. I think this is my new favorite Izzy Boo picture. With Mommy. Sitting in Nannie's chair. She looooves her Nannie!

Pregnancy Boom at Gloucester High

Interesting, yet sad article from Time Magazine - article

Unconditional love is a big pull and they feel they can get that love from a baby. But, sadly, they have no clue what they are really getting themselves into. Parenting is hard, I know there are days when I feel like I barely have a hold on things and I am soon to be 29. There is no way I could have handled all of the responsiblity as a 16 year old.

It is wonderful that the high school provides child care so young mothers can finish high school, but maybe they need to include some counseling classes on the realities of being a parent. My heart aches for these girls!

Babies are definitely cute and cuddly, but they really don't like to sleep and are kind of expensive too! :) Maybe they should come and get real world experience at my house and get up with Elizabeth 4 times a night.
