Neglect

I've been a busy busy woman lately, and because of this I've neglected my blog.  I didn't mean to let this collect dust, but such goes life.  My baby girl is a month old, time sure flies when you're having fun.  I can't believe how much she's already grown & changed in appearance.  She's got the sweetest smile; however, she's quick & I can't seem to catch it on camera.  She loves to sit up and look around, make faces with you or roll from side to side on the floor "exploring".  She loves to sleep with music on, I don't know how she feels about most music because she listens to classical/piano versions of lullabies most of the time.  In my car when we go somewhere she listens to everything from 50cent to Kelly Clarkson to Lady Gaga to Brad Paisley.  She'll be well rounded in the music department just like her momma.  This week I am tracking her eating/sleeping/awake times to help me put her on a schedule and get some organization to her life.  I'm hoping this will help her not fight sleep so much at night time... the girl wins every time.

Cam is back to work full-time, been back since Halloween.  Its long hours & a lot of nonsense if you ask him... I know that all can't be true, they've got to be busy doing something productive.  Anywho, so when he gets home we spend about 2-3 hours together until he goes to bed in preparation for the next day.  Sometimes those few hours are spent with him doing more stuff for work, its a tangled web the Army weaves.  Other than that, we've been learning this parenting thing and embracing it.

My sister and cousin came down this weekend.  It was so great to see them and have those chats & laughs, I really needed it.  I can't believe we didn't take any pictures, very unlike us.  The weekends have actually been filled, the weekend before this past one Sabrina came into town with Grayson.  So I got to meet those two along with Juliet, Braeden and Jon.  Let me just say I love them all & was thrilled that they were every bit as awesome IRL as online!  Maybe sometime early next year I can fly out to Texas to see Sabrina on her turf.  I'll have to see Juliet earlier, she's moving to Germany (I'm super jealous).  I don't really see our weekends getting less hectic, this weekend coming up I think Cam's parents are trying to come and then its Thanksgiving, so the holiday nonsense will be in full swing.
