Back to work for mom


I started back to work on Christmas.  The transition was much harder than I anticipated.  I swear she grew an inch, gained a pound, and matured drastically that first day back.  I much prefer Nora to the Medela pump.  The conversations seem so one-sided, it doesn't coo or smile or giggle, it won't even look at me.  Nora, however, seems to be adjusting to the transition without a hitch.  She's been enjoying all sorts of new experiences on her "tours of Bend" with Ralph and Bean

I asked Ralph to make sure she's warm enough when they are out for extended periods of time. He documented to show that he knows what he's doing. She had the works;  hat, gloves,  socks, and shoes and my down vest.

Those pictures are too much, and it's not just you. She really has changed quickly. Had a random thought today that Ralph looks JUST like Christian Bale. Probably been told that over and over, but thought I'd share it. Love to you guys,

Ann Marie! She is SUCH a cute baby!! Good luck with the transition. Do you work full or part time? And what do you do?

Hey Leah

I work 10 days a month, 12 hour days. It feels like it's as much time away from her as I can handle . I'm an ICU RN.
