Back on Track

As of yesterday, I am back at work.

Unfortunitely.

That's the only word I can come up with to describe the sentence I just typed.

I'm a little bummed. Yes, I will get over it within a few weeks. Maybe even a few days once I adjust to our new schedule, but right now, I'm going to stick to being bummed about it. :( I miss my boys throughout the week while I'm at work. I hate the fact that once I get home, get dinner cooked, get the boys fed/bathed and get bags packed for the next day... it's time to go to bed. It sucks. Hopefully one day Daddy will get the position we're hoping for at work and mommy can stay home more. I'm hoping for at least part time. We just have to leave it up to the good Lord. He has a plan for everyone and right now our plan involves me working.

Work has been going pretty good. We are filing extensions right now so I've stayed pretty steady since I came back yesterday morning. Which is always a good thing. Everyone is adjusting to mommy going back to work. Tuff misses his mommy and daddy throughout the day. (Or so I hear.) We all knew this was going to happen. Poor bubs. I think he really enjoyed having his mommy home with him the past 7 weeks. He was a little upset when I dropped him off at school this morning. Gunner could care less what's going on as long as someone is feeding him, holding him and keeping his diapers clean. Lol.

I wanted to put some pictures up from Gunner's birth to now. Just for a record of how much he's grown and changed in the past 7 weeks. Speaking of, our sweet baby boy is 7 weeks old today! He's growing like a weed.

Here is my little time line.

(Including some "firsts")

Just a few seconds old

FIRST bottle

FIRST outfit

FIRST car ride (home from hospital)

FIRST time being held by big brother

FIRST time watching cartoons with big brother

Sweet face

So serious

FIRST bath

FIRST tie ;)

FIRST time to the park

FIRST monthly photo session

FIRST parade. He slept the entire time.

(the rash on his face is from a stomach virus he's had)

Playing in the bouncy

Big brother bouncing him in the bouncy

The child LOVES to be naked!!!

I've never in my life seen a baby so small enjoy being un-clothed. But this one, loves it. He can be fussy and all we have to do is take his clothes off and he's happy again. Tuff HATED being naked, taking baths, having his clothes changed and having his diaper changed. Ha. Amazing how different they are. Our sweet boy is already getting so big. Before we know it, he'll be as big as Tuff.

I'll be back tomorrow with pictures from our trip to the Parade in our hometown last Friday!

Stay tuned...
