01.04.10: Back to Work

Dear Friends and Family,

After 11 days off, it's back to work. I left with 22 messages in my inbox. I'm returning to 284. Fun and games.

The weekend was a continuation of vacation - cleaning and organizing the house, playing with P, running errands, and other miscellanea.

P's daycare instructors aren't going to recognize her when I bring her in this morning. She's a crawler now. She's a puller-upper now. Her bottles are smaller and she'll have three meals at school. She sleeps less. And, she's almost a ten percentile porker now.

We've also begun feeding P "human food" in addition to baby food. We transitioned her from Stage 2 Apples to applesauce. She's tried congee albeit with fruit not meat. We've been mixing either fish or avocado in with her jar food. And, last night, we let her gnaw on the end of a baguette for fun.

This is the longest stretch I've had off since returning to work. And, it's the longest stretch the three of us have had off together since P was a month old when Mr. mouse took three weeks off with me.

It'll be a tough day today. But, hopefully, we get back in the swing of things without too many hiccups.


Cheers!
mouse
