Well my summer vacation is over.... sort of. I officially went back to work 2 weeks ago! I go into the office one day a week and work from home 2 other days. Getting out of the house and going to work has proven to be really fun and refreshing. I don't think I could do it more than 1-2 times a week, so my new work schedule is perfect! I feel so lucky and blessed to keep working part time and still getting to care for Jillian!
What gives me the peace of mind to leave all day is Bama comes over and watches Jillian! Thank goodness. My mom is so wonderful to do that (she loves it!) and I know that Jillian is well taken care of!
I was telling Jeff yesterday that I have a new found respect for single moms. I truly don't know how they do it. I plan ahead when I know I'll be gone all day - getting her bottles ready, getting all my pump supplies clean, packing up for work, cooking dinner for that night the day before, making sure Jillian has a days worth of clean clothes, burp cloths, ect. Then I get home that night around 530 and I'm exhausted! (hopefully when Jillian can drop her 5am feeding, I'll feel more rested after a long day) I don't know how single moms do that every single day with NO help at home! I'm so lucky to have Jeff every night.
Ms Jillian has now met everyone Jeff and I work with. I took Jillian to my work a few weeks ago and yesterday I took her up to see everyone at Jeff's firm. It was really fun and everyone was very sweet and complimentary! I meant to snap a few photos of Jeff in his office with Jillian in his lap, but I left the camera in the car. But since she looked just so darn cute yesterday, I took a few photos myself. This was my first time to have her sit up like this, and she did great! She's getting so strong! (yes she has more bows than this one!)
