It's been awhile since we've blogged. It's hard finding time in the day to do things outside of Jadeyn! I hope it gets a little easier once we've established a routine. We're still working on that.

Our days are great! We get visitors ever so often, Jimmy comes home for lunch usually and my mom makes almost a daily appearance to help out in case I haven't been able to shower or eat breakfast.

On a typical day, Jadeyn wakes up once during the night to eat (whether that's midnight or 3am - we haven't quite got down a good system yet) and then Jimmy gets up with her about 6 to do another feeding. She either falls back asleep or rests until about 9am. I try and get out of bed while Jimmy's still here to give me time to shower and get ready, but it's so hard sometimes!

Jadeyn does not like to take morning naps! Her naps are only about 30-45 minutes in the mornings, but hopefully we can get those to be a little longer. So normally, we'll play on her gym or go water the lawn, see our neighbors or just chill and watch some tv. However, there's nothing interesting on in the morning except Cash in the Attic on HGTV. After lunch, she's really ready for a nap, so she can sleep for a solid 3 hours in the afternoon. Sometimes we'll stay around the house, but it's also a good time for me to get out and run some errands while toting her along. It's a nice break in the day.

Today we strollered on over to Academy by our house and picked up some shorts for me. It was fun just being outside and walking around. Jadeyn looked adorable in her lady bug dress and her big wide-brimmed sun bonnet. She can definitely get most anyone's attention with her big blue eyes and long dark hair!

Jimmy and I are off to help with our church's middle school camp next week, so Jadeyn gets to spend time with both sets of grandparents for the week! She'll be with her Grandma and Grandpa Quinn the first two days and Mimi and Grrrpa will have the last part of the week. And if we can't go a full week without seeing her, my mom is able to bring her by camp on Wednesday for some cuddly time.

Camp will be a blast. I'm excited to be able to go. Jimmy and I are co-leading a group together. Rumor has it we're team Jamaica. Can't wait for Monday to come!!
