Back to work I go...

Well it's back to work for me this week :-(. I'm really not looking forward to it, but then again when does any new mom want to go back to work and we all survive just the same. It's funny though just about the time I get her all figured out and she becomes and easy baby for me, I have to hand her over to someone else to benefit from my hard work. The girls will be going to separate daycares because Maya's is geared towards older kids, so I will be dropping them both off in the morning and then driving 30 minutes to work, Chris will be picking them up when he gets off. Our week days are about to get super hectic!

About 2 weeks ago I started tracking Kate's schedule and really started trying to get her to bed by 8 and seeing how many hours of naps she needed during the day, etc. Ever since we went through that exercise she has been crying less, taking naps and going to bed on time. It's amazing what paying attention can do! She is definitely our chunky monkey, she goes for her checkup this week but I'm pretty sure she already weighs as much as Maya did at 4 months old.

Last week I went to visit my mom in San Antonio with my sister Angela and her son Noah during my last week of freedom. It was very spur of the moment and while it wasn't necessarily a relaxing trip for me it was good to go visit my mom and spend time with my sister. Maya and Noah got along really great until the end of the trip was near, but I know they both had tons of fun. We got back Friday afternoon and since then this weekend has been relaxing, I haven't had to do much of anything around the house so this first week back to work should hopefully go smoothly. Last night Grandma Bennett babysat the girls, Katelyn didn't spend the night but it was still nice to get out for a nice dinner. Cheesecake Factory...yumm!

This outfit inspired her current nickname. When I was at my mom's I looked at my baby pictures, I think Kate might have bigger cheeks than I had but otherwise we are pretty identical.

I'm so happy to be two months old today! I'm smiling alot these days and I LOVE my playmat, I'd rather be laying down than be in a swing or bouncer or even be held!

Here are Maya and Katelyn just sitting around...
