We Now Have A 4 Month Old

Today, my little man is 4 months.  I have been a mommy for 4 months already.  It feels like it hasn't been that long at all.  Though a lot has happened in the last 4 months.  

Trying to adjust was interesting.  The Baby Grandpa(we call him that since he is named after his papa) was  colicky, so that made adjusting extra difficult.   In that last week before going back to work, I had finally figured it out.  I had dinner ready every night at around 6:30 and my house was getting clean.  Once I went back to work though, it all went out the window.  

Going back to work was one of the hardest things I had to do.  I remember that first week, I was in the kitchen bawling my eyes out while washing dishes.  Why was I so upset? because I was stuck washing dishes, listening to my baby laughing and playing with the Auntie Nanny.  I was so tired from getting up early for work, my house was trashed, and I felt like I didn't get to spend enough time with my family, and after my sister started school, I would just be working to pay for child care anyway.  So we decided I wasn't going to do it anymore.

As of Friday, I am officially a stay home mommy. 

 I've been at it for only one day and I already feel so much better. My house isn't sparkling yet (I've decided to give my self a week of just baby/mommy time before I try to turn myself into super SHMom)  but I have been able to get so much cuddle and play time in.

Here are lots of pictures. Enjoy his cuteness!

He looks so much like his daddy.

I love this outfit.  You don't even know

I am so grateful to my wonderful Husband and loving Heavenly Father that I have the opportunity to stay home.  It was a decision that I struggled with.  Now, there is no doubt in my mind that I am doing what is best for my family.

More updates soon.
