Back to Work…sort of June 19, 2007

Well today I sort of started back at work. Turns out that they are slammed in my office so we have arranged for me to start working on some projects from home “part time”….you know how that goes…I already have a ton of work to do! It was nice going into the office this morning and being in a meeting with adults =) I guess it was nice to feel productive…which is so funny because really raising our children to be grown contributing membors of society is a pretty productive task in and of itself but the little quantitative tasks that I’m given to do at work seem to fill that feeling more so.

This is good…so my mom will take care of Fi on mondays and tuesdays and I will sit in my office and work with my headphones on so that I can’t hear her out there =) and when she needs to eat mom will just bring her in. Wed. and Thurs. I will take her to Greg’s parents which will be a little more tricky because I’ll have to stop what I’m doing and drive over there to feed her. We’ll see how it goes. This will also give us a chance to see what it will be like trying to balance two working parents and a baby….the small amount of housework that I am able to get done during the day won’t happen and we’ll have to be even better with our time (for instance I cleaned the bathroom at 9 p.m. tonight) and this doesn’t even take into account having a commute…etc….

BUT… i’ll be making a pay check…which will be nice =)

Fiona is doing great…she looks like a baby bird…her mouth is always open and as soon as she can get one thing into her mouth she’s already looking at the next to try and figure out how to get that into her mouth. She’s really pushing up with her arms now while she’s on her tummy and just barely starting to pull her knees up ( i can totally see an “army man” crawl in her future! )
