I'm Anna Marie Anderson, I have a one year old baby his name is Jordan Jacob Anderson. He has my last name because his dad left before he was born and he isn't in his life. I graduated school this year, I'm going to college in LA so Jacob and I are currently moving there. I got a small two bedroom apartment that's pretty close to where I'm going to college.  I have to admit I am gonna miss all my friends. Especially my best friend Angie. This is what she looks like. I'm also gonna show you what Jordan looks like.

This is my little baby boy Jordan. I know what your thinking , "how'd she have a baby at 16 and still manage to finish school" well I got pregnant when I was 16 but had him when I was 17. His birthday is 3 months after mine.

"Angie can you help me put these boxes in my car please" I asked as I finished packing

"Yeah but I hate that your going so far away" she said as she got off the floor cause she was playing with Jordan.

"I know but it's only for college i promise we can visit each other" I said as I out Jordan in his crib

"I know but still it's not gonna be the same with you gone" Angie said as she picked up a box

I have her a small sad smile then started carrying boxes out to my car. After Angie and I got everything packed in my car I dropped her off at home. Jordan and I are leaving tomorrow at 6 am.

"Jordan let's get you a bath then get you something to eat" I said as I took Jordan out of his car seat and carried him inside.

I gave Jordan a bath then made him something to eat, he usually sleeps with me, but I decided to put him in his crib tonight. At like 3 in the morning I woke up to Jordan crying. So I went to his room and picked him up and put him in my bed and he fell right back asleep. I fell back to sleep as well, my alarm went off at 6:00 I put Jordan in some comfy cloth then put on a sweater and sweat pants then headed out. I drove until 9:30 then stopped at a restaurant so Jordan and I could eat breakfast. I ordered him chocolate chip pancakes with orange juice, I just ended up ordering the same thing. After we ate I changed him in the bathroom then we headed out again. We didn't stop much except for when I had to change Jordan's diaper. It felt like for ever but we finally made it to our new apartment in LA. We got there at like 12:00 in the morning. The first thing I took out of the car was Jordan crib so I could put him to bed. After I put him in his crib I started taking out all the boxes from my car I got done taking everything out at like 1:00. I started to unpack, I blew up my air mattress till I could get a new bed. Which I plan on getting one tomorrow. I set the mattress up next to Jordan's crib in case he wakes up. I looked through Instagram for a little bit then ended up going to sleep. I was surprised because Jordan slept through out the entire night. I woke up by Jordan saying "mama" over and over again.

"Mm hi baby" I said as I picked Jordan up. I changed his diaper and put some toys on the floor so I could get his room set up. Meaning I just had to put his crib in there because he doesn't have a dresser yet we are going to get that today.

And this is mine. It's currently 9:30 so Jordan and I are gonna go get something to eat then head to the stores to look at beds for me && dressers for the both of us. I'm going to get the dressers in boxes so I can put them together because I don't have a big enough car for an already built dresser, anyways there is already a stove and fridge here so I just need to buy some groceries, I also need to go job hunting and get Jordan into day care. After Jordan and o ate we made our way to Walmart and big lots, I got two nice sized dressed for me and Jordan, I got a nice bed I'm having the people drop off for me, now all I have to do is get food. We went to Walmart and I got some food for Jordan and I. After I took the food home and put it away I called big lots to tell them that they can bring the bed over. I started putting the dressers together and was done with both of them by the time they got here. After they left I organized both of our rooms the way I wanted them then started putting Jordan's cloth away. Then I put mine away. I decided that Jordan and I would go walk around the mall and get some new cloth since it's so warm here. When we got to the mall it was packed. But the first store we went to was the store that had cloth that would fit Jordan I think it was called crazy 8. After I found him cloth that he liked I went to forever 21 and Victoria secret. We walked around for a little longer, I was paying so much attention to Jordan that I didn't see where I was going and accidentally ran this guy over his the stroller.

"I am so so sorry I didn't see you there" I said looking at him sincerely and embarrassed

"It's good, is this your baby" he asked

"Yeah this is Jordan, I'm Anna by the way" I said as I held my hand out for him to shake

"I'm Diego" he said as he spoke my hand. We talked for a little bit then I went home. I wondered if I'd ever see him again. Eh probably not. After Jordan and I got done shopping we went home and I started putting everything away. While I was putting stuff away Jordan walked up to me and hugged my leg.

"Hi baby" I said picking him up

"Hi mama" he said hugging me

"Wanna go to the park?" I asked Jordan

"Yeah yeah park park" Jordan said

I put my shoes on and out his back on as well then got him buckled into the care. We went to the park for like an hour and a half then went home. I finished getting everything situated, tomorrow I'm gonna sign Jordan up for day care then start looking for a job.
