King of the Castle! : 3 Months!!!

I went back to work last week. It wasn't my favorite thing in the whole world, but it honestly was not NEAR as bad as I had imagined! I honestly think the leading up to it was a heck of a lot harder than actually being back, as there were many tears shed over the weekend before and only a few during the week while at work! I think it probably helps that I work with a great bunch of people and really enjoy my job...although I wouldn't mind maybe working part-time...I am HR, maybe I will work on that!! And, I also think it helps knowing that during the day, he is with people who absolutely love him. We are so lucky to have my parents watching him two days, my mother-in-law watching him two days, and Tonja, an amazing in-home daycare provider watching him the other day!

Anyway, the past month has been amazing. Jameson continues to change so much each day, both physically and developmentally. He is definitely in the chubby baby stage and I absolutely adore it (a whopping 15 lbs and 26 inches long!). And, he is so talkative. He always has all kinds of stories to tell! We got in quite the routine before I went back to work where we would talk for quite awhile in bed after he ate. He is always pretty happy in the morning, so it was a great time to bond with him. I try to schedule enough time in the mornings now to still do that, but it's a bit harder with having to be at work. He also loves it when we read him books. I think he mostly loves the colors, but it's still fun to watch him coo at the books. Oh, and he found his feet a few weeks ago and cannot seem to keep his eyes off of them. It is so cute! He will wiggle his little toes and just stare.

As you can see, I am one proud Momma and love that little bean more than I could have ever imagined. He brings so much joy to all of our lives. He is my everything!
