working 9 to 5... no, no, 8 to 12!!!

Yesterday was  my first day back at work, and I made it through the day without having a complete breakdown.  Fortunately, it was just a 4 hour morning shift, so I was able to nurse him and get him back to sleep before I left, then he slept for over 2 hours of the 4 that I was gone - yay!  His daddy had a good time with him.  Luckily, Christopher did not throw any huge fits (which are common when his dad is holding him - ha) and they made it through 4 hours just fine.

Work is work, I pretty much hated being there and am definitely glad to be going part-time.  I work 4 hour shifts today, tomorrow, and Friday, then I'm off for the weekend.  Today and tomorrow my mother-in-law will be keeping Christopher, so I'm praying that goes over well.  I don't think she's ever seen him cry -- let alone throw a screaming fit like he can do.  (I think he has gas pains, and he will just SCREAM for no reason all of a sudden -- then he really gets upset, and I am always the one to console him.)  Hopefully he will be taking his afternoon nap during most of my shift today and tomorrow.

I can't believe October is almost halfway over!  I am looking forward to Christopher's first holidays -- Christmas especially. 

I think that's pretty much it for now.  My kitchen is finished being painted, so I'll post pics after we get the pictures and everything back up on the wall.  We also painted our master bedroom, and I LOVE the new color in there.  I lost my camera for a few days, (but I found it now) so this is the latest picture I have of C -- we took it after we went out to dinner with our friends Jeff and Mel last Friday.
