Getting Ready to Return to Work











Well Aiden, Don and I are enjoying these last few days before I return to school. I have to say I have been quite emotional and dread the thought of not being with Aiden 24/7...but I also am excited about getting my school life back and seeing the kids. I am shadowing my sub on Friday and officially return next Monday. It helps that I only have 1 full week and 2 days then its Thanksgiving Break!!! I have enjoyed watching Aiden grow in these last 8 weeks and can't believe he is now 11 pounds 8 ounces and 21 1/2 inches long. We had our 2 month shots on Monday and it was as traumatic on the parents as it was on poor Aiden. To say he screamed is an understatement!!! After turning a unique shade of purple and whaling for 10 minutes we were in the car and off to sleep he went! Don and I both needed a tylenol but were able to laugh later at the eventful afternoon. Thankfully he had no reactions and as many of you know I was VERY nervous about vaccinating him so I was pleasantly surprised. We will keep you posted as these next very busy weeks and transitions occur!
