Return of the Jen

Just thought I'd hop on and say hi. It's been awhile since bloggin on here so i owe it. Been doin okay over here lately, despite the crazy up in the air instability at my work but other than that peachy. I'm just on the second day off before having to go back to work. The first day back is always the worst. It usually takes me longer than normal to wake up and get into work mode. I'll make it tho. At least i'm not going to go in without sleep like I did last week. I feel like i require a more than usual amount of sleep than average adults. Ray makes fun of me cuz he can get like six hours and function fine but i need at least 8 otherwise i'm miserable. I didnt always used to be that way but it seems like the older i get the more sleep i require. lol. I thought it was supposed to be opposite.


It's been so nice out lately. I've been spending alot of time outside with amiah. I love being outside. Its always the best after a long winter. I've been taking Amiah in teh stroller and going for lots of walks. I'll go to walgreens to shop for random things and always hit up the park on the way back. Amiah loves it. She's discovered the slide and the route that she needs to get to it. She says "weeee" when she slides down it. It sucks when we have to leave tho cuz she is never ready to go. She always cries. I was pretty successful this last time tho, I let her just follow me while she carried her sippy cup of water. I think distracting her worked. 


Going through mommyhood has been a blast so far. I'm currently looking to purchase a bike and then get a kid bike trailer for amiah to ride in behind me. i think that'll be the best ever!  I was looking on a few websites for the trailer. They are pretty expensive brand new so i might see if i can use one of my babysrus coupons and apply it towards one at toysrus.I don't know if i can do that or not. i need to buy  a bike too tho. I'm super excited. I'm thinking i'm going to get those next pay check. Thats my goal. We've been doing really good since tax time. Weve been saving money and stuff and making sure all of our bills are caught up. It feels good to have money in the bank and be current on bills.  I deserve a bike and trailer for it. :) Ray doesnt know this yet. lol (now he probably does...love you!)


Alright, i better get to reading my book on mah kindle fire. I'm reading a stephen king novel called "under the dome". It's pretty good so far. It's about a giant dome that all of a sudden is over this little town and they're describing when the dome comes down it's severing these animals and people and stuff. super creepy! 


Good night all.
