advice - going back to work and pics!

 We are doing well i cant believe my little guy is growing so fast!!  He's going to be 6 wks old!

Im going back to work in about a week and a half....and im totally flipping out about leaving my little man!!!  Anyone have advice or tips on how to cope?


Heres some new pics of aidan!

I don't have any advice but wanted to tell you that he is a total cutie!!

He's a cutie pie!  I don't really have any firsthand advice as in a few weeks I'm starting a new job.  But, not sure if it helps or not but I think I would have rather went back to work earlier than later.  That way it wouldn't be so hard on him.  Because now he knows what's going on and if I had worked earlier he wouldn't "know" any different.  My little boy is 14 months old and he's doesn't like it at all when I leave to go to the grocery store without him so I'm sure me leaving for 9 hours a day is going to be extra rough on him.  I've been told that it gets easier and easier the more you do it.  So I'm hoping that's the case.

so handsome... ok im weird but i always enjoyed going back to work... gave us a schedule.. plus i got to have adult converstation

I don't know how I'll cope either so I have no advice, I just wanted to say that he is super cute!

Awww what a doll!!! He is so cute!

As for going back to work. I was lucky to be able to leave Anberlin with my husband. When she starts daycare I think it will be a different story! I am going to be so envious of that daycare lady!!

 Thanks everyone!  

I thought I would be happy to go back to work by now, but actually it's quite the opposite.  I am having a REALLY tough time just thinking about leaving him.  I thought I would crave adult conversation too....but we go out during the day together just to get us both out of the house and I get to talk then.....

I just wish we weren't so stupid when we were younger and have so much debt....then I could have stayed home, but such is life.....

Thanks for the support and sweet words everyone!

Aww he is too cute!!
