Today was our first day at baby school! Also known as my first day back at work. As we were eating our breakfast, we discussed where we were all going today and what we were going to do. I'm not sure if Isaac got the "first day of school butterflies" or what, but he sure changed into a pretty solemn little guy. He wouldn't smile for his pictures to save his life. We did eek this little, tiny, itty bitty one out of him! You can imagine what the others must have looked like if we are calling this a smile!We (Justin decided he would go with us) made it to school by about 8:15 a.m. and learned how to clock in/out, met all the teachers again, met some of the kiddos, saw which bed was his, gave them the run down of the quirks of Isaac and then hung around a little longer than we probably should have! But they were really understanding and didn't laugh at us too much!
I made it to work just a hair before 9 a.m. which was my goal, and even had time to stop and get coffee! The coffee was probably not the best idea, I hadn't had any in awhile...so I was a little jittery most of the morning, but it did keep me awake! The gals and Steve were so sweet, they brought me flowers and snacks for our morning meeting. I was a tiny bit afraid that the girls were going to make me cry (I had made it thus far with no tears) but I didn't. I also didn't worry about our little guy too much, but I sure did miss him! Overall it was a good day. I was a tad overwhelmed by being back. I made it through most of my emails (mostly junk or things that were so out of date it didn't really matter)and started trying to figure out where to start. I did skip out on one meeting, I just didn't think I could handle jumping back into it that quick, so Christan and I took a quick walk around the Zoo and took down some old posters. Hopefully tomorrow I will figure out where to start and get back into the swing of things. Maybe, just maybe by the end of the week I will know if I am coming or going!
Justin and I both came home to have lunch. It was a little strange not having Isaac with us, but I'm sure we'll get used to that. I wasn't sure at that point if I was going to stay the entire day or come home early. So we decided if I hadn't left before 4:30 p.m. Justin would go pick up Isaac. At round 4 p.m. I got a call from Justin saying he was going to leave and pick him up...too cute! I stayed at work until 5 p.m. I was a little tired but not doing to bad! We'll have to see how the rest of the week goes!
Justin said that Isaac gave him the biggest smile when he saw Daddy, which was a big relief to dad! His baby school report said that they went for a walk today, he ate fairly well, took one pretty good nap and a shorter cat nap.
When I got home he gave me some pretty good smiles too! He looked like he was pretty tired, so he must of had fun today! We chatted and laughed for awhile and then decided he needed a little rest. He fell asleep around 6:15 and is still asleep...I wonder what that means for tonight!?!!
Oh well, made 9 a.m. won't happen tomorrow...we'll just have to see!
I thought of and prayed for you guys all morning. Glad to hear it went well.
ReplyDeleteWhat a smart looking little guy! He looks like he can handle anything. Hope the second day went just as well as the first. I'll miss popping in to see him in the afternoon. Let me know when you'll be home....sometime. LVU Mimi
