back to work :(

well...as of monday, june 1st, i am officially back at work. :( i had always said i'd take off six months, but given the current work environment and shortages of jobs, i had a good opportunity come my way, so i took it.
i'm easing my way back in, so was still home for the morning feeding this week, but will start going in earlier next week. i just love the morning with them....they're in the best moods and are so excited to see you!
i must say...i was very apprehensive about going back to work, but surprisingly, it's good to be back. the week was insanely busy so it flew by, but nice to be challenged again and learn something new. don't get me wrong...it was extrmely rough being away from my babies, but they are in very good hands and seem to be just fine without me (much to my dismay!) i don't know how many times i called lin (our nanny), but you can only ask so many times how things are going and the responses don't typically vary too much! they either ate, napped or played or they didn't!
i'm still attempting to nurse even though i've gone back to work and so far so good. we have a great mother's room at the office which has hospital grade pumps and they provide all the attachments, so they make it relatively easy to do. i've learned though time management is going to be critical between trying to learn a new job, pumping and getting home at a reasonable time!
welcome to motherhood!!
