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.

It would be hard. I don't know what you are going through, but I can try to imagine!! That is awesome they let you know when he naps, eats, etc. Sounds like he is being well taken care of! ...wish you the best of luck...
OH Leah..I'm sure you are such a great mom!! Your son if very cute!!! I'm sure it is so difficult leaving him!! I hope you guys are happy and doing great!! Love you guys!
leah, you're a trooper. you are doing what i wussed out on. even though it would be nice to be making a little bit more money, i think most of it would go to daycare.
if you ever need help putting away stuff or cleaning up, let me know. i am in mad project mode, and izzy being mobile and somewhat an independent player makes it easy for me to do simple things around the house.
