Aiden: 13 weeks.

I apologize for the blurry photos, my camera phone isn't what it used to be. :( Maybe I need to upgrade to an Iphone...:hint hint, nudge nudge::

My boy is getting tall and he is forming quite the personality.

Every morning after we wake up from our morning nap we open the blinds and talk about our dreams & what we want to do for the day. 

His sleeping pattern=he wakes up at 3:30 and again at 6:30 daddy takes him for an hour at 7 and then AJ and I nap until 11ish (UH-mazing).

He does well with his babysitters-YaYa, Aunti Madi, Cousin Brianna & of course Daddy (I guess he doesn't count as a babysitter). But he didn't want me to put him down last night when I got home from work.  No seriously, he fell asleep, like, 14 times (three) and each time I went to put him in his bassinet his eyes would POP open and he's make his sad face/whimpering.

Going back to work has definitely been difficult, BUT I've remembered how much I love coaching gymnastics & how much I love being a mommy.  When I'm at work I miss Aiden & I constantly look at the clock and think "6:30 PM it's time for him to eat" or "7:00 PM it's time for him to eat...again." (true story, P.S.).  When I was on maternity leave I definitely missed my gymnasts & the smell of feet chalk. My brain is a little bit slower than it used to be & I'm missing some of the obvious technical errors I could catch without thinking twice, but it feels good to be back.  BUT I'm back and I truly love working with young athletes and being able to guide them & help them accomplish their goals, both in the sport & in their everyday life.  I know that I will raise Aiden (and all my future children) with the same ethics & philosophies I use as a coach.  It's kind of cool that my professional experience will help with my personal existence.  Hooray for surviving my first 2 days of work!

We have his 3 month check up next week. I'll keep you updated.

sad this one is so blurry.

this one too.

I heart his bumbo & i guess he does too, kinda.

He loves you thiiiiiiis much.

he is definitely wearing shoe socks, but he wanted to show off his dance moves instead of his shoes.

Back to work.

I survived (I knew I would).

I'm exhausted/too caffeinated. (It's 11:38 PM)

I had fun & remembered how much I love coaching.

I missed little Mister but he had a poop waiting for me when I got home so I know he survived too.

From this day forward,

Workin' mama
