Well - I'm getting close to going back to work. I must say that this time around, maternity leave was MUCH more difficult - even though I wasn't a first time mom. Having a 2 year old with such an independent personality and a new baby was a combination that I wasn't prepared for. I don't think Brad was prepared for it either. It hasn't been easy...but on the flip side - it hasn't been completely HORRIBLE!
I remember with Allie - after my mom left us for a few months...I was so overwhelmed. I was so unbelievably proud of myself when I was alone for the first time and had dinner waiting for Brad when he got home! I felt such a sense of accomplishment. I laugh now when I think back to that time...especially today as I was cooking dinner, tending to the baby, helping Allie go potty and helping Lando go outside! I was doing all of those things without even thinking about it and although it took me a moment...I realized how far I've come!!
So since I'll be going back to work next week - I took the real camera out for a change and took a few pictures.
She was sleeping so peacefully...
And then she had to stick her hand in her mouth...
This was taken with my iPhone...her feet are so funny to me!!
