It is almost time...

.... to go back to work...  :(

I thought I would go stir crazy just being at home, but so far I LOVE it!  It also helps that there are a few new mommies in my circle of friends and it is nice to chat with them about the little ones, day to day life and everything else in between...

On the bright side, my mom is going to be here soon and she will watch Oliver when it is time to go back to work... Thankfully my bosses are also pretty amazing and I will be able to spend less time in the office and work more from home...  Let's see how it will be once I am back at work...

Being a Mommy

Now that I can reflect on the last 4 weeks - I enjoy being Oliver's Mommy :)

We have learned a few things together, we have cried together and we ate together... It is amazing how quickly one adapts to do things with one hand! Like EATING!!!!! Or not eating because you simply forget about it or can't really make anything with one hand...

There were nights I woke up with a baby in my arms and had no recollection where he came from!!!!  Speaking of "the nights" usually he wakes up two to three times...

And why is it so difficult to get yourself and the baby ready by a decent time in the morning???

Here a little status update on Mommy's little guy :)
Just the other day he started lifting his head up and keeping it up for a bit... He also just now started to enjoy Tummy Time :)  The only time he really smiles is either by accident or right before he falls asleep... As far as I can tell he only has one dimple... We will see if his eye color will stay blue (dark blue) but since birth his hair has been getting lighter...  I can't wait for his one-month-well appointment and find out how much he has grown... :)
