It's back to work I go! Tomorrow is the first day of my new job and the end of my stint as a stay at home mom. While I am SO grateful to have had 5 months home with my little one, I will miss him so much while I am at work. Adam will be attending "school" in the Virginia Highlands, and I am certain he will be very well cared for. But, nothing compares to mommy, right?! I have no fears about leaving him....as others have said, separation anxiety is about the parents and not the child at this age, and I think that's true. Thankfully, Brad will be doing dropoff, so I will not have to go through the agony of actually leaving him. Since I'm starting a new job, I will just be a new co-worker, not a mommy returning from leave, so if I cry at work, folks may not be that understanding!
Adam will also be 5 months old tomorrow. Where has the time gone?! I took his monthly pic today, since I thought tomorrow might be a little crazy. I know Adam hasn't been around that long, but this is certainly the most fun age yet. He has become such a smiley, happy baby and I just adore him. An example: tonight we went grocery shopping, and I got him into one of his hysterical laughing moods. He was letting out VERY loud belly laughs, and everyone in our checkout line was staring! When it was our turn at the register, the cashier told Adam that he was "just too happy". Can you imagine? Who thought the little boy who used to be inconsolable every evening would turn into this adorable, giggly little man?
I'll post soon and let you know how the new job and daycare are going. For now, enjoy the pictures.
