The Party's Over.....
I call it a party, but maternity leave wasn't quite that.
Just kidding!!!!
I had a great maternity leave!
Besides the middle of the night feedings, all the poopy diapers and spit up down my back, I love being a mom again.
I tell you what...that 3 months I was off, sure went by fast.
Now, I'm back to work and trying to settle into my new routine as working mom of 2.
So far so good.
So here are the answers to some of the questions you may be having....
Maxwell Wallace Warner is wonderful.
He's sleeping through the night(started at 10 weeks).
He's almost 15 weeks now.
He's about 13 pounds.
His big sister, Zoe, is great with her baby brother.
I'm still nursing(yes, ladies it can be done even while back at work!)
I have about another 15 pounds to lose to be at pre-pregnancy weight.
and oh yeah, I'M TIRED AS YOU KNOW WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope that does it for now, because I'm ready to go home and slip into my other hat...MOM!

Good for you for continuing to breastfeed! I took about 9 weeks off (baby girl came along the end of October, so I stayed home until Jan 1) and I continued to breastfeed until she was a year. It can be done!
You look great! It's great to have you back. :)

Hi Val,
Thanks for posting who does your hair. I have been looking all over for that salon in the phone book and on the the internet with no luck. Do you think she would mind if you gave out the number to the shop.
