Oh my goodness I can't believe I go back on Monday. I am so thankful to have had these 12 weeks home with my precious little girl. It has been a bittersweet week - trying to cherish the moments we had left knowing next week I will have such limited time with her. I have cried. Many times. And am starting all over again. Ugh! I can't remember the last time I have cried so much!
We are also blessed to have the best child care available - my mom. I know she will be well taken care of - it is just hard to imagine most of my day will be spent away from her.
Just when it starts getting fun I have to leave. Who would want to leave this?
In her cool shades (that I got for her Easter basket):
And one with Bailey:
Another thing she has learned lately - picking her head up. (Robert calls it her crunches - she is better than me!) Silly baby. She should enjoy resting while she can! She even tries this in her car seat.
And holding a rattle. I think she understands that she is shaking it. She pokes herself in the eye sometimes and tries to bite the ears.
And the Aunt Alli look: (Robert finally got it on camera)
*Sigh* I will post when I can, but my time in the evenings are going to be spent loving on my child. I suppose there are always the weekends! Don't worry, I love to show off the baby - so we won't disappear! I am off to bed - I need my rest before the big day.

Carmen, that last picture is probably because she knows you will be going back to work - so the feelings are mutual! We will be praying for you as you return to work - You have the right attitude, to make the most of the time you will have at home with her in the evenings and weekends! Thank goodness for Grandmothers!!!!
By the way, she is a beautiful baby and growing tooooooooo fast. Thanks for sharing thru your blog. If I ever get to Atlanta for a day or two, I will just plan on "helping" Susan at your house!!!
Bless you (and your co-workers) on Monday! Shelby (Cooley) McPherson
NOOO! I know that has to stink to go back to work. Hopefully it will get better every day!
