One Month & Lots of Updates

I can't believe Jonnie is over a month old already! She is growing up so fast... it is so much fun but actually really quite sad for me. It seems like she changes and is doing new things every single day! A lot has been going on lately and I am going to jam it all into THIS post since I don't know when I'll get around to doing another one! I couldn't sleep this morning so I woke up at 6 and decided to get some things done before Jonnie woke up and wanted to eat again:) Updating our blog has been on my to-do list... just kind of towards the bottom so it gets shoved aside! ANYWAYS.... On with the updates:

**Jonnie is now ONE MONTH and two days and growing by the minute.hahaha... I love it when she yawns.. it cracks me up the faces she pulls already.
Speaking of faces.... I can't get enough of this one! haha... She had just woken up.. probably after a night full of one or two hour increments of sleep... we gotta work on that!

**Yesterday was the first time she smiled while she was awake.. and she did it when JD was playing with her. I think she has a crush:]They have the cutest little relationship already:]

**Our insurance is trying to make us pay for all the NICU bills... what the heck was the $5000 copay and then they covered 100% after that bull crap all about then?! UGH.. I hate insurance. Hopefully we can get this figured out soon.

**Easter was great! We spent it at my parents' house and had some fun Easter egg hunts... Jonnie had a cute little Easter dress and looked adorable!She was getting sick of pictures already!

**JD got a call and letter from Washington State telling him he's been ACCEPTED! So the day after we sent off our $500 NON-refundable check to Oklahoma State to hold his spot... we are now shifting gears and heading to Washington State if the football thing doesn't work out.

**THREE more days til the draft... and also when JD will get the big call from a team if they want him as a Free Agent. The whole process is nuts... but so far he's been talking to Indianapolis, Miami, Dallas, and Kansas City. So we'll see what happens!

**ONE final stands between me and graduation! WOO! I think I'm gonna take it on Monday.

**We got a storage unit for the summer.. thanks Brye and Michelle for finding it!... and started moving our stuff in yesterday. No matter if we end up doing the football thing or Vet School, we're doing the storage unit thing til we find a place in August wherever we end up... TALK ABOUT FLYING BY THE SEAT OF YOUR PANTS!

**Weber had their football banquet last Thursday and JD got Defensive MVP for the 2nd year in a row... WOO go babe! (I'm still trying to figure out how to balance Wife and Mom... clearly I stink at the wife part lately cause I didn't get ANY pictures of him at the banquet. Cosy did though so I will need to steal those from her.)

**I LOVE being a Mom and just adore Jonnie. I'm sure she didn't know what she was getting herself into when she became part of our family.. but boy is it an adventure!What I do 99% of the time I'm with her...

I think that touches on just about everything. We are doing great and just trying to get by each day. We love the hot weather and taking walks whenever we can! I can't wait til JD is done with this semester!!

We had a lot of insurance issues with my husband getting an appendectomy. Don't be afraid to appeal your claims. We ended up only having to pay $150 for an ER visit and we are still battling with them for another visit.
PS Your family is adorable!

I hate insurance too. So confusing to me. I hope they get it figured out. My mother in law is really good at dealing with insurance companies because she fights with them for a living lol. If you have any questions for her I know she would be glad to help you with whatever she can just let me know.
Jonnie is getting so big and she is so adorable. You already look so good. I am very impressed lol.
