Jay's POV: it's been a week since Thanksgiving and here in a few days I have to go back to work. Baby Camryn just turned a month old yesterday I can't believe it seems like yesterday she was born. She still can't sleep through the night but she has gone in longer stretches over the last few days. Right now erin and Camryn i'm taking a nap so I am watching some TV while they are sleeping. About 30 minutes later I hear baby Camryn crying over the baby monitor so I hurry up and get her before she wakes Erin up. ( in Camryn's room) 


J= good afternoon baby girl did you have a nice nap ( she doesn't answer) well I will take it as a yes ( Camryn starts to cry) oh it seems like you want to get up come here baby girl ( picks her up and smells her stinky diaper) and looks like you need a change ( I change her and she still cries) let me guess you are hungry all right let's go get your bottle ( in the kitchen) here you go ( takes the bottle ) now you feel better let's go watch some tv while we wait for mommy to wake up ( about 5 minutes later)
E= hey there is my favorite two people
J= I hope we didn't wake you up
E= no it's fine I was getting up soon anyways
J= so how was your nap
E= it was good I need that sleep
J= I bet you do
E= oh yeah I hope soon she likes sleep just a little more so we can get some sleep too
J= oh yeah Especially since I go back to work soon
E= oh man don't remind me
J= hopefully here In the next few weeks you can go back to work soon too
E=Yeah that's true
J= so what are you ready for  either me or you to go back to work
E= no I am not ready for either of us to go back to work
J= I know what you mean so before you can go back to work we should probably figure out what we are going to do with Little Miss Camryn
E= what do you mean babe
J= like who is going to watch this little girl when we are both at work
E= I don't know
J= I was thinking maybe will and Natalie could watch her
E= I don't think so babe
J= why not
E= well for one they are getting ready to have a newborn anyways. They don't need to worry about another newborn before they have theirs
J= oh yeah good point
E= and for two we both work some crazy hours I don't think we should have them deal with no sleep before they have their kid
J= another good point so what do we do
E= maybe we can hire a nanny
J= I guess we can
E= that way we only have one person watch her and maybe have her be on call all the time
J= oh yeah we will start looking for a nanny here soon
E= yeah hey when do you have to go back to work
J= I think I start back Monday why
E= well maybe before you go back to work we can find a nanny so I don't have to worry about it before I go back to work
J= all right that works tomorrow we call a nanny service and set them up for this weekend so we will be happy with whoever watch is our daughter
E= that works for me so what's for dinner
J= I have no clue I didn't get anything out so how about let's go and get some fast food
E= I love that idea so what place are we going to
J= I don't know what are you feeling for supper tonight
E= I don't know maybe some chicken
J= so either KFC or canes your choice
E= oh let's see how about canes
J= all right so do you want me to go Get the food and bring it back or would you like to come along to get the food
E= how about a little family drive
J= I would love that
E= all right I am going to freshen up while you get her ready to go
J= deal babe can I drive please
E= yes you can my wonderful husband
J= you are my angel do you know that
E= yes I do you are my Prince Charming
J= oh how sweet but go because I am so hungry
E= I am hungry too babe

Within five minutes we get ready and go and grab some food. After we got our food we decide since it was still warm our we would go to a local park and eat our food. ( at the park )

J= wow i'm surprised it's this warm out specially this time of year
E= oh yeah I agree this chicken is so good
J= couldn't agree more I'm glad you decided on this tonight
E= same here I make Good  choices
J= you make great choices babe
E= why thank you babe
J= you're welcome you know what I would love to see before I go back to work
E= what is it
J= maybe a sweet little smile from myform my little girl
E= well according to the books and stuff they said she should start smiling at us after being a-month-old so she should be smiling soon
J= well maybe we can get her to try and give us a smile
E= oh yeah let's try ( to Camryn) can you smile for daddy ( nothing happens)
J= come on baby girl please smile for daddy
( still nothing)
E= how about we try and tickle  her and maybe she will smile then
J= good idea maybe she has the same ticklish spot as her mother her feet
E= that's not true
J= would you like me to test that out to prove i'm right
E= you better not
J= what are you going to do if I do this ( tickles Erin)
E= (laughs) come on Jay stop please
J= ( see Camryn smiling) look babe
E= oh she is smiling
J= I think she was smiling at you getting tickled and your laugh
E= oh so baby girl you think that was funny that I was getting tickled
J= ( still smiling) oh yeah it was but she has the cutest little smile ever just like her mother
E= how sweet are you but are you happy you got to see her smile at least once before you head back to work
J= oh yeah so happy
