Well, I am back to work now, sadly enough! Although I want to be back, it is so hard to leave Emily everyday, knowing that no one will ever take care of her as good as us. The day started off pretty good. We took some pics before we left for the day.
Emily and Daddy
At Emily's daycare, they have a separate building just for the babies that they acquired while I was on maternity leave. I really like the concept of it, because it gives the babies a chance to be babies and they don't have to be bothered by the noise of the big kids!
This is a wide shot of part of the newborn room. You can't really tell much from this pic, but you get an idea.
The bed with the pink diaper bag by it is Emily's. It's not personalized much yet, but it's her home away from home. She seems to like it. On one side of the bed as clear Plexiglass that she can see out of and the other is a mirror, so she can look at herself. She really likes that mirror!!
We both went to drop her off on her first day. Here's a pic of Daddy saying goodbye.
and here's a pic of me.
We both hated to leave, but it had to be done. Rich left first, since he was already late for work. I stuck around for a few more minutes. When he left, it was the realization that I would have to also, and I started to cry. It was kinda embarrassing, but, I couldn't help it. I knew she would be fine, the kids always are...it's the parents that suffer the most!
Since the school is directly across the street from my office, I can walk across the street to see her when I want. I went back to see her that afternoon at lunch and got to feed her, as well as yesterday. I didn't go today, b/c I don't want to make it an everyday thing. She is a big girl now, and I need to learn to let her spread her wings, as little as they may be.
