First Week Back to Work

As you can all tell...I made it through my first week back to work. But, it wasn't without some tears and frustration. Tears that I had to leave my little boy for SEVERAL hours and deal with only seeing him awake for maybe 3 hours at best each day (including a 3a.m. feeding - although I wasn't complaining last week, I looked forward to seeing him - even if it was 3a.m.!!!). But, we made it through and I know his grandparents loved the time with him. I can't say I was as excited about the daycare though and that's where frustration came in! Diaper rash the first day...it was even worse the second day, an outfit that had been urinated on and my son was still wearing it when I got him home! UGH! Needless to say, mommy and daddy are on the case to find a new daycare! We are looking into the in-home option as well and might just have a good lead at this point. So, that's my venting for now...on to the more important part of this blog, a few updated pics from this weekend. (I look horrible in these pics, but Ethan is too cute to not post them).












Mommy...please stop kissing me...I know you've hardly seen me this week, but come on!
I guess those kisses weren't so bad..

This is my big sea turtle that Grandma and Grandpa Hickman got me for Christmas..








Man, this monkey tail tastes GREAT!

Oh my gosh he is just so adorable - and it's amazing the changes in just a week or so - his face looks like it's filling out more - that means bigger cheeks for mommy to kiss!! What a cutie!!
