Back to Work I Go!

Happy Monday friends! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I’ll be sharing a DR recap on the blog soon. It was a very successful trip and I’m so glad Tommy and I decided to do a trip before I went back to work.

And here we are. I really can’t believe that 3 months have gone by since we welcomed Luke into the world and our family. Seriously, in a blink of an eye he’s no longer the newborn he was, but an actual baby who is always smiling, talking, and interacting with his mommy, daddy, sister, and puppy sister.

Leaving the hospital.

I have absolutely adored bonding and being able to spend so much time with Luke. Leaving for work today was definitely bittersweet. I felt like a chapter of my life with him had officially closed, which was sad, but I was also looking forward to getting back to the routine I had pre-Luke, if that makes sense.

One week old.

Last night.

As hard as it was to realize that I will not be spending days on end, all day, with Luke anymore in the near future, I am comforted knowing that he will be well cared for while Tommy and I are at work. Our nanny who took such good care of Ava will now be taking care of Luke. This is such a relief and burden off Tommy and me to say the least – to already know and fully trust someone to watch and love Luke as we would. In fact, I had Wendy watch Luke for several days for a few hours leading up to today so all parties could get use to this new arrangement.

Wendy most know that I’m thinking about Luke constantly because she has been texting me so many photos of Luke today. Here is one from earlier.
