TGIF

Well, I guess all good things do come to an end. I am once again looking forward to Fridays as I am now back amongst the working world. The last 12 weeks went by way to quickly and my maternity leave was officially over on Wednesday.  Although I was seriously dreading the day I had to return to work, it didn't turn out to be as awful as I had imagined and obviously we all survived.  What can I say, we are blessed with the easiest, most flexible baby on the planet and the most generous family in the world.  I am not saying it isn't hard to leave this cutie every morning...



...but knowing that that he is with family everyday instead of strangers at a daycare gives me so much peace of mind.  We are so lucky that my MIL and even my mom have decided to watch him the majority of the time.  In fact, my mom is coming into town this weekend to keep him for at least the next week if not longer.  As for Wade, it is like he knew that life would be changing.  He has just in the last few days started sleeping all night until 5:30 or 6:00 in the morning which works out perfectly for my schedule.  Like I said before, God's works are miraculous and we are so blessed.  I will just continue to pray that life will remain as wonderful and easy for our little famliy.  In the meantime, I'll just have to learn to cope with being away from my sweet boy for 40 hours a week.

I've Been Slacking

Not on posting, but writing a specific post.  I shared Wade's two month update on what is going on with him however, I have not posted any pictures of him during his last month.  And, while I really, really enjoy people reading about what is going on in our lives, I started this blog as a family journal of sorts.  That means I am selfishly using this forum as a way to document our life with our precious little boy solely for my enjoyment hopefully years from now.  So without further ado, here is our Sweet Wade in his second month...


As you can see, he is changing daily.  He is also growing like a weed.  At his two month appointment with the doctor, he weighed 13 lbs 2 ozs and was 24 inches long.  Not only is it fun to watch him change physically, it has been a blast to watch his personality start to develop.  Wade is such a laid-back, happy baby and we are so blessed to have him in our lives.
