For your daddy (and other family members)

I decided to create a blog for Riley Jane because for the past 4 weeks John has been working in Charlotte and has not seen his child, my mother has not seen her grandchild since she was born, my sister only gets to see her every once and a while. A blog seemed to me the right idea to post her developments and milestones has she reaches them. (thank you Tiffany for the idea)

It amazes me how fast a child grows, i understand now why my mother always cried and said "my babies are growing up so fast". Its true. I feel like if i blink i will miss something new. Riley Jane is now 5.5 months old (at the end of this week) i am in complete shock that it has been 5.5 months! It feels like just yesterday i was holding my little love for the first time.

John is back in Charlotte working 2 jobs to support his family, which i cant even begin to express how much it means to me that he will work 2 jobs inorder for me to stay home and raise our child and give me a chance to start/finish school.

I am currently in Florida House/Dog sitting for my grandfather...which has been the most difficult thing i have been through in a while. Taking care of a dog is a piece of cake as well as a house, the pool is a pain in the ass but still easy. Even taking care of a 5.5 month old solo is easy.
Its the thought that John hasnt seen his little girl in a month that is the hardest thing for me to deal with...plus the fact that i havent been away from him this long since he went to Boulder for school back in 2006 (saw him every month and a half).

Sooo this is for you Hunny, so i can write down everything your baby is doing so we all can feel like the 520 miles between us is a little less.
