Sorry I haven't been a good blogger lately, but I haven't done much & haven't taken many pictures. I go back to work a week from today & Katelyn will be starting daycare. I have been trying my hardest not to leave the house & to spend as much time these last few days with her because I know I won't get to be with her like this again. It has been really hard on me these last few weeks, I have had so much anxiety about putting her in daycare. I know it is a good daycare with a great reputation but it is still a daycare!! The hardest thing is knowing I am going to leave her with someone I have only met a few times. I know there are so many people that have to do the same thing & I am not the only one, but when it is your first time it is a lot harder than you expect it to ever be. I always thought I would the mother who was more than ready to go back to work when it was time, but I honestly don't want to be away from her, even when she pitches a fit that can last more than an hour! I think if I can make it through the first week or two I will be ok, but I know there will be a lot of tears on my part before I get there. I will post pictures of her first few days next week.
On a lighter note... Katelyn has been sleeping through the night for the last two weeks. I have had my fingers crossed the last two weeks hoping the it would last & it wasn't just a phase. We have also been putting her in crib, up until this point she has been in a bassinet by my side of the bed. I am so glad she decided to start sleeping all night before I had to go back to work. I was beginning to wonder if she was ever going to sleep through the night.
We finally got to meet John Thomas last night. He is so cute & I couldn't get over that long curly hair. He looks so much like his mommy! We had to put him & Katelyn next to each other to see their size difference, she is big now but I bet John Thomas will be a lot taller than her in a few years. Congratulations Lynn & Scott on your beautiful baby boy. I can't wait to see these two grow up together.
I forgot how it was to hold a baby that small & Katelyn was even smaller that John Thomas. He is such a sweet baby!
You would never know it but Katelyn had 4 shots the day before this picture was taken, she did so good! She did scream when they gave her the shots but after that she fell asleep & slept most of the night & woke up the next day smiling. I hope her next round of shots go that good. She now weighs 11 lbs. 11 oz. & is 23" long.
