First days back at work

I've returned to work after an incredibly quick three months. My first day back at the office was filled with anxiety but I know, as with last time it will get better. Our children are in good hands and I love my job. The transition from full time mom back to work is always an adjustment.

Reed still doesn't like the bottle but is learning to take at least a small amount. He spent last Thursday with his Noma and they had a great day and he ate 4 ounces. For a boy his size its like taking a sip of water but it is a start and next week he starts at our new daycare which will hopefully get him in a routine and he will start to take the bottle more regularly.

Speaking of the new daycare - Lucia started last Friday and had a good day. I put her in for 1/2 day and starting Monday she'll go a full day. She didn't cry as I thought she might and was happy to see me when I returned but didn't rush to leave. I'm keeping my fingers crossed she loves school, after all her friend Lilly goes there.

Here are pictures of Reed and I on my first day and of Lucia peering into her classroom.

With little ones, there are so many big transitions along the way. Go Lucia and Reed....and go mommy, too. Let me know if there is anything I can help out with, especially on your full week back.
