Back to the Grind...

The dreaded day came last week when I had to return to work...yuck!  I was very emotional over the weekend just thinking about having to leave my little man.  He also decided to really tug at the heartstrings by being an extra wonderful baby during our final days and even uttered his first serious giggle.  He laughed, I cried  - what can I say? 


Fortunately, the old adage that things are often worse in your mind than they are in reality was true once again.  I'm pleased to report that my first week back went shockingly well!  I worked half days in the office and the remainder from home, which was a very nice transition.  Going forward, my plan is to work 1-2 days/week from home.


Of course, the other piece that made my transition so much easier was knowing that Ashton was in such good hands with Andrea.  She's been amazing - sending several pics of Ashton each day and keeping a journal of all of their daily activities.  Ashton had a great first week and was all smiles!  I have no doubts that Andrea and Ashton will be best buddies. :)

All smiles!

Apparently, Aloysius is pretty funny.

Happy boy!

My new fav hat - thanks Auntie Andrea!
