Get Back to Work!

So, I started back to work this week. I’m so thankful that I can work part-time, otherwise this would be much harder than it already is! It was pretty tough on Monday, even though I only went in for 4 hours, picked her up for about an hour, then went to an evening meeting. I think the hardest was getting home from my meeting at 9:30 and only getting to rock her for 10 minutes before bed. At least I had all day Tuesday to play with her!

Wednesday was my first full day back – 9-5. The morning went by fast, but the afternoon dragged. At least I’m getting back into the work that I do enjoy.

The adjustment is hard, but I’ve decided it’s just a matter of getting used to a new “normal.” It got progressively easier as the week went on, so I guess we are adjusting.

My biggest concern is that I’m going to miss her doing something big for the first time. Like finishing this move:

She’s so thinking about turning over and it is funny to watch. I hear it kinda freaks out the baby the first time they actually roll the whole way, so I’m always watching carefully, waiting for it to happen so I can take in her reaction. I just don’t want it to happen while I’m away! But I guess it is just one of the many things about our little girl that I can’t control…
