DONE!

It is finally done!!!!!! I finished shelacking it around 3:00 this afternoon and went to a party until 10:00. We came home and I had to put it together. Leah has not even seen it put together yet. She couldn't stay up. I can't believe that it is done.

The Tales of a Working Mother

Well, here's "back to work" - week 3 and boy am I feeling the burn. I kind of feel like I did back when Logan was just a couple of weeks old...struggling to find time to do even the simplest of tasks. I thoroughly enjoyed decorating our home for Christmas back in November (before returning to work), and now am wondering if we'll ever see the day that I can find time to take the tree down. By the time I get home and eat dinner and wash bottles and pump parts for the next day, I refuse to allow another thing to interfere with my time with Logan. Who knew it would be this hard?!? Although I enjoy the time to interact with other adults and continue with the job that allows me some personal time to do other things that I enjoy, I miss Logan dearly. When I dropped him off at daycare for the first time, the scene pretty much spoke for itself. We put Logan in a swing right beside another baby who started to immediately chat it up. It was like his first day of school! The center even sends home sheets outlining when he ate, napped etc. with comments about the day, and stickers that say "Super" or "Great Job!" One day he's our little itty bitty baby, and the next day it's like he's off to school! I'll post a picture next day of this new adventure.

Here's another pic that's too adorable not to share...I LOVE hats, but unfortunately, he rarely lets me put them on him anymore. That is, unless he's NAKED. He LOVES to be naked. So we compromised. One day, mid-diaper change we tried on all the hats he refuses to wear. This one is by far my favorite.
