Back to Work

So I made it through my first week back to work. I think I had mentally prepared myself for how terrible it would be to leave Charlie, so I think I handled everything relatively well. The hardest part is getting used to going from spending every minute with him to basically 2 1/2 hours a day. I get off work at 4:30pm, but by the time I make it through traffic and up to daycare in Cicero, it is just past 5pm. And our bedtime routine starts about 7:30pm and he's in bed by 8. So poor Andy hasn't got much time with him this week because I haven't put Charlie down between the hours of 5 and 8pm!! Luckily, this weekend we didn't have any big plans so I was able to cuddle with Charlie all weekend long! Hoping this working mom thing gets easier...

Taking a quick picture just before mama left for work. And yes, that is spit up coming from Charlie's mouth!

Charlie time on Monday after work...

I never get tired of snapping pictures. Charlie is only 3 months old and he's already over it!

He's just discovered his little hands...

Belly time...not his favorite!

His daddy dressed him for school this morning :)

A great example of me not putting him down after work.

Snuggling with his DaDa Saturday morning!

Ready for his visit with his cousin, Ivy.

Awh Ma, another picture!?

That's ok... I love you anyway!

Alot!

Charlie turned 3 months old my first day back to work. Here he is dressed up in his outfit from the Knotts!
