February, 4, 2011 I was sitting in the living room and my stomach started growling. Chris looked at me and said” all we have in the キッチン is a jar of pickles.” I said” will あなた go get them please?” He stood up and said” wait a minute; I thought あなた hated pickles?” I said” I’ll take any 食 at this point….need food!!!” While he was in the キッチン I heard the glass break and said” that better not have been the pickles!!!” I walked into the キッチン and Chris said” my hands slipped.” I smiled and jokingly said” I hate あなた so much right now!!!” I grabbed my truck’s keys and Chris picked up Reegan. After we got in the truck I drove to McDonalds and ordered us a lot of food. Chris took a box of chicken nuggets out of the bag and blew on them. He tore each of them in half and passed the box to Reegan. I smiled and said” oh; what a good daddy あなた are!!!” I took a big bite out of my quarter pounder and Chris said” god; why the hell are あなた so skinny?” I said” I won’t be skinny for long; my baby bump is starting to show!!!” Reegan said” Mommy 音楽 on!!!” I turned the radio on and Ryan Seacrest was talking. He 発言しました “Justin Bieber is reaching a prince of pop level as he starts his European tour.” I changed the station and rolled my eyes!!! Chris said” Bieber will never be as amazing as your father is!!!” I said” yeah I know; I just wish get back to the stage and give him something to worry about!!!”After we were done eating we drove to the grocery store to get 食 for us to eat at the ranch. We walked into the store and I put Reegan in a shopping cart. Believe it または not this is the first time we have gone 食 shopping since getting married. あなた could tell that we had no clue where anything was and I even had to ask one of the employees to help us find something. When we got to the place with pickles were I grabbed 7 jars of them. Chris said” I can’t believe your buying all of those!!!” I said” I think it’s the サワー taste that I like…I’m craving them!!!” Reegan started to get fussy and I gave him my IPhone to play with. As I was in the checkout line with Reegan; Chris went over to a magazine rack. He came over to me with a copy of 星, つ星 magazine in his hands. He flipped through the pages and said” look at this!!!” the タイトル of the 記事 was “Behind the Mask?” I read it and it talked about how I decided not to have Reegan wear a mask in public like my dad had done with us. I closed the magazine and put it back on the rack. Chris grabbed the grocery bags and we went out to the truck. As we were putting the 食 in the back of the truck I heard someone saying “hello?” I took my phone from Reegan and he had speed dialed Grandma’s number:
Me: hey
Grandma: how are you; I haven’t heard from あなた since あなた told the family あなた were pregnant?
Me: yeah I know that…I just needed a while to calm down!!!
Grandma: we all miss the three of あなた very much!!!
Me: did Prince get over his fit?
Grandma: あなた can’t blame him for being mad!!!
Me: I’m almost 17 years old and I’m married…what do expect me to do?
Grandma: how do あなた think your father would react?
Me: I think he wouldn’t be shocked; truly he thought I was sexually active at 14 years old.
Grandma: why would あなた say something like that Alanna?
Me: well; he came into my room with a box of birth control and told me that I better take it!!!
Grandma: that doesn’t make it alright….tell me the truth Alanna Michael Jackson….did あなた ever at any point have intercourse with Christopher in my home?
Me: NO….WOW THAT’S LOW GRANDMA; I HATE THAT あなた THINK SO LITTLE OF ME!!!
Grandma: I don’t treat あなた differently than I treat any of the other kids.
Me: don’t give me that bullshit; あなた wish あなた had never gained custody of me when dad died!!!
Grandma: that’s not true A.J; I just don’t know what to do with you!!!
Me: what do あなた mean あなた don’t know what to do with me?
Grandma: I’ve never had to deal with a kid like あなた before!!!
Me: so what I’m still your granddaughter!!!
Grandma: that may be so but; I don’t agree with most of the stuff あなた do.
Me: tell me some of the things that I do that あなた hate and I’ll explain why I do them.    
Grandma: when あなた got your tongue pierced!!!
Me: I wanted it because I like to treat my body like a work of art….you didn’t have to give me permission!!!
Grandma: what about あなた getting married so young?
Me: I 愛 Chris with all of my ハート, 心 and I want us to spend the rest of our lives together!!!
Grandma: Well I have to go; I’ll talk to あなた soon
Me: that’s only if I want to talk to you
I hung up the phone and looked at Chris in disbelief. He said” I hate how あなた did some messed up shit in the past and they blame あなた for everything that is happening now.” I hugged him and said” I’m just glad that I have あなた and Reegan to keep me grounded!!!” I passed Reegan his pacifier and said” it’s getting to the point where I don’t care または not if she is in my life!!!”

February, 5, 2011, the three of us were sitting around at the ranch doing nothing. I had just got done giving Reegan a bath when Chris walked into the room. I was drying Reegan’s hair and Chris said” we should get a pet; it’s too quiet here.” I took Reegan of the ベッド and said” I’ll tell あなた what; we will go to the store and pick out a fish.” He said” come on あなた got to be kidding me!!!” I said” we already have a one 年 old and a baby on the way.” Reegan ran over to his bookshelf and started throwing 本 everywhere. Chris said” yeah…we need to get a dog to keep me company!!!” I bent down to pick up the 本 and said” we are not company enough for you?” He said” It’s not that babe…I just really want a puppy!!!” Reegan passed me his stuffed dog and said” woof, woof.” I picked him up and said” I want a dog too but; I’m not sure this is the right time!!!” Chris said” when will it be the right time?” I said” in a 年 and a half after we try getting Reegan out of diapers!!!” Chris said” I can’t wait for him to stop wearing them too because it’s gross!!!” I looked at Reegan and said” don’t worry we have a long way to go before that happens unfortunately.”
