Another Big Day


In the history of my life. Not as big as election day, but for me, actually a lot bigger. Tomorrow John and I will drop our son off at daycare. Ak! I'm so torn about doing this. I want to stay at home and know that no one will take care of him like I would. I also know that I need to get back to work and I actually miss my wonderful job and co-workers! I'm comforted by the fact that he will only be there 4 hours a day though. I've spent most of the day getting all of his "school supplies" together. I've just about worn out a sharpie marker writing "Quincy Telford" on everything! I've got everything together that he needs to make it through the day--except me. I don't feel guilty about leaving him, I just feel sad that someone else will get to spend 4 hours with him instead of me. I already feel "they grow up so quickly" coming true for us! Tonight we attempted to put a gown on Q that was so big on him when we first got home from the hospital and tonight he was too long for it! He has officially grown out of his newborn clothes and can wear all 3 month outfits and some 3-6 month clothes. He doesn't fill out the 3-6 month clothes except for length. He slept 7.5 hours the other night and we put him to bed tonight as he was still awake and he fell asleep on his own without fussing. We usually don't put him in his crib until he is asleep--so, we are making progress! He is 8 weeks old and I will post the two month update and picture after our doctors visit on Friday.

I'll be praying for you and Quincy both today.

Congratulations on the good sleeping that you're getting out of him--that makes life so much brighter! :)

Love,
Julie

molly! we have a doctor's visit on friday too! our 2 month! ugh! i don't want to go. i really don't. i don't know that i'll be able to handle the shots.

but here is some advice if you're worried too. someone told me to put campho-phenique on the site right after the shot. supposedly that makes it less sore. i dunno. but i'm willing to try it.

i wish i had a job. seriously, i'd love some "big people" interaction. i mean, i love being here at home...but i get bored.

but you already know this.

and all the stuff about him being too long...us too! he's not "round" enough yet for those clothes...but he has to pull up his knees in the 0 to 3 month stuff! hilarious!

anyway...i love reading this. and i'm convinced that they will be roomies in 18 years. :)

love ya'll.
