About Me

My photo
JR has been a paramedic for Ada County for the last 9 years. I also work for Ada County Paramedics in the Logistics Department. JR and I have known each other since middle school. He liked me in highschool, but I thought he was too goofy. We started dating our second year in college. We were married August 14th 2004 and had our little Madison July 30th 2008. Colin completed our family on October 11th, 2011.

Changes


Madison and Daddy helping mom with laundry (NOT!!!)

Madison



This cracks me up!!! Madison likes to pop her binky out of her mouth so it is hanging out, but the nipple is still in her mouth!!!! What a cut up!!!!

Since Madison was born I have been with her almost 24/7 and before I was laid off I only worked about 14 hrs. a week, but our lives are about to change. I am going to be gone Monday- Fridays from 9 am to 3 pm. I am very excited about my up coming changes, but I am going to miss my time with my baby. Here is an outline of our typical day.
7/8 am. : Madison wakes up
8/9 am.: Madison has a bottle/ I eat breakfast/ dogs eat breakfast/ cuddle on the couch
9/10 am.: Madison and mommy have a nap
10 am.: Madison has cereal and fruit
10:30 am- noon: Errands, chores, playtime, On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays I go workout for an hr.
noon/one pm: Madison has an afternoon nap
2/4 pm: More errands, chores, playtime
4 pm: Madison has evening nap
5pm: Madison has dinner
5:30/7 pm: I make dinner, finish chores, if weather is nice go for a walk or spend time outside playing with the dogs
7/8pm: Madison gets a bath, bottle, book, and bed
9-11pm: Mommy and Daddy relax ( I watch a little tv and read)

JR is either at work or doing things around the house also. He is working for his dad so he spends a lot of time in the spare room/office. As you can see we have a pretty nice relaxing schedule and I have been pretty spoiled by it. I just hate to be away from Madison. What if she needs her Mommy and I'm not there? I spend 24/7 with her and know what she needs!!!! I know it will be fine and that Madison will be just fine. She is such a good baby and loves everybody plus her Daddy will be with her Monday, Tuesday, and Thursdays. He's even going to take her to her last little Gym classes (can't wait to hear his version of the Itsy Bitsy Spider!) and then on Wednesday and Fridays we are going to have a friend of mine that I used to work with at St. Lukes watch Madison here at home, so I'd say we are still pretty lucky!!!!
