-Stephen was going to stay at home with the kids this fall, but got a promotion and returned two weeks ago. It's a great opportunity and he is enjoying a new challenge.
-We took Chase out of his daycare two weeks ago (coinciding with the new job start) so I was home with both boys last week. It was definitely physically challenging (especially since Brice is not sleeping very well) and I was exhausted by the end of the day, but we had so much fun! I would love to stay with my boys full time...
-Sadly, I return to work next Wednesday. To say I'm absolutely dreading it would be a severe understatement.
-As a result of the new job, we had to find a new nanny. She started this week- so far, so good. She is sweet and very calm.
-Chase starts preschool next Tuesday! It's a very warm, nurturing school and we loved his teacher when we met with her back in July. I had Back to School night tonight. I cannot believe our guy is old enough for school!
-Speaking of growing little boys, at last week's doctor's appointment Brice was 13lbs 2oz and 25 inches long. The doctor and lactation consultant both said he is definitely growing, but they were both stumped as to why he doesn't sleep more than 5 hours (and no more than 3 hours after that). On the doctor's recommendation we started some solids (avocado and then rice cereal) and formula before bed. He's not sleeping any better...
Here are some pics of the boys to hold you over...
I'll be enjoying the last few days with the boys before I return to work, but look for more posts later next week!
