Back to work

Last week I went back to work. I was suppose to be working 20 hours per week but due to an increased staff I have to supervise as well as needing my vacation, sick, and holiday pay I am now working 30 hours per week. I work all day Monday, Wednesday morning, and all day Thursday and Friday. The week went pretty well and it felt like I had never left. I do feel bad leaving three kids instead of one.

I don’t want to jinx anything but the nights seem to be getting quite a bit better. Each night varies from but last night Tyler and Alyson went from 7:30 pm to 3:30 am for their feeding. It is always Tyler that gets up and we wake Alyson up to eat at the same time. It took Tyler a bit to get back to sleep but they ended up sleeping until 7:15 so we got a decent sleep last night. We can handle getting up once  a night!!

Alyson continues to be the most content baby ever. She rarely cries or fusses and smiles all of the time. Tyler likes to talk all of the time and is most smiley after he eats. He is very impatient and screams until he gets what he wants. Jayden continues to talk all of the time, coming up with new things that make us laugh everyday.

Scott is working on a new project. He has decided to build a sandbox for Jayden. He spent all afternoon trying to dig an area for the box and was breaking up roots most of the time. We’ll see how long this takes. He has other plans to put in a patio and get patio furniture. He had no idea how much work goes into that.

Scott can always call for advice! A lot though can be said for hard work and persistence. He’ll get it done.

Yea…

Roots is a understatement. I think I pulled out the surrounding trees root first.
