Change of status

As of May 18th, I will no longer be a 'stay at home' mom. It was around the second week in March that I started to think about going back to work. I chalked it up to the weather and Mia's long string of colds that made me start to get excited about the prospect of working again. I've always worked and wasn't sure how I would handle such a big change in my life. I wouldn't change a thing about my experience over the last year. I joined an amazing play group with a bunch of really interesting women, went to ECFE classes, did the mommy and me (yes, I had to wear a swimsuit in February) swim classes, and reluctantly danced with the other parents during the music and me classes--all in an effort to fulfill my new role as a mommy. We found a really wonderful place for Mia to be during the day. She will be downtown with Dennis and me. We can drop in for lunch or just a visit at anytime. I'm not sure how this will go, but we are ready for the next chapter in Mia's life.

Off to the swings

Mia's new favorite activity is swinging at the park. She screams and claps her hands every time we get near the park entrance.
