Yesterday I took Brooks to the babysitter for a trial run. I could not expect to be able to take him on Monday for the first time and be able to go to work and function that day. It was good for both of us, as well as the sitter, because they were able to adjust to one another and I went to work and did some computer based learning that needed to be done by the end of the year. He did so well for Michelle. He ate his bottles (YEH) and took naps like a good boy. I did OK because it was not the whole day plus I know that Michelle loves him like one of her own children. Knowing that I will be working only three days a week and he will be with home with Daddy on Friday's gives me the strength I need to do this. It is just so hard to leave your little ones to go back to work.
Anyone that knew me while I was pregnant with Logan may recognize the outfit that Brooks is wearing. Logan wore it 5 years ago!! That is so hard to believe... .a)that Logan will be 5 in November b)that we have another little guy wearing the same outfit that Logan wore. I love Eric Carle and especially the Very Hungry Caterpillar. Anyway, I thought that I would share that with you all. Have a great week.

I know going back to work is hard for you, but at least you have a great sitter that you trust. Brooks will be taken care of and loved by her so much. You can call me on your way to work after you drop him off. I am going to miss being able to talk to you anytime of the day!!
I am so glad that it went well!! It IS so hard to leave them, but sounds like you have a wonderful person taking care of Brooks....he looks pretty happy in these pics!! You are a fantastic mom!!
