Three months...

I can't believe I have a three month old! People said time would fly but this is crazy! Here is an update on what he is doing...

He smiles all the time!

He laughed and coo's at things!

He is learning cause and effect...this means mom & dad have to let him cry it out sometimes!

He's had his first cold...Christmas week-awesome.

He is a champ flier! First flight to Chicago could not have been smoother!

We love this little boy more and more everyday!

Back to work...

For those of you who have been keeping up with me, you know that I went back to work last week after being on maternity leave. I knew it would be hard but this was excruciating! I couldn't even take Witt to daycare so Patrick had to drop him off. I cried the whole way to work (all 7 minutes of my commute) and continued most of the morning. It was so bad and I was so hysterical at work that a teammate took my class so I could have an extra half hour to get control! I survived day 1 only with the help of my incredible supportive team.
Day 2 was not much better although the tears stopped long enough for me to get through teaching. We are now at the end of week 2 and I finally feel in a groove but I still get teary every morning when I hug my little one good bye. I still don't go into daycare. I have made it to the parking lot but Patrick walks him in. Baby steps right?
As soon as this starts feeling like my new normal we will be on Christmas break and then I can hit repeat all over again in January! This is my life, and I wouldn't change it for anything in the world, well... maybe for being able to stay home! Until next time bloggers!
