Back to work

This week was my first week back after maternity leave, and all I can say is that I survived. I have been dreading this week since the day he was born because I so love the time I had with him at home. I cried a lot this week, but each day it got a little easier to leave him. I have worked out a deal to go part time starting at the end of March so if I can just get through 5 more weeks of full time then I think it will be okay.

I am so grateful for my wonderful aunt and uncle who kept Beckett all week. As you can see in the pictures below he got so much love and attention from Aunt Norma and Uncle Tommy...I couldn't ask for anything more. Thank you guys so much!!! It really made this transition so much better for us. And a special thanks to Uncle Tommy for teaching Beckett how to blow spit bubbles. He does this constantly now and makes the funniest sound...it cracks us up :)

It looks like Beckett had fun! I'm glad you have the first week behind you...it's gotta be downhill from here! I am so so glad that your part time option worked out.

I am so proud of you, Sheila! You are the best mother working or at home, no doubt about it!
