I'm back to work, doing full time even though that was not my intention. Someone quit the day after I started and so... boom there I was with full time hours. Maggie has been having a lot of fun playing with Christopher all day long now that Katherine is watching her. I have been coming home on my lunch breaks to feed her and she seems to be ok. Last night I couldn't get her to go back to sleep when she woke up at 11:00 like I had been and I was so exhausted I gave up and brought her to bed. Hopefully that isn't the start of a pattern. We're settled into our house and have all the essentials out. Now, we just have to find places for everything else.
Katherine told Matt that Maggie stood on her own for a few seconds yesterday. Every day she is making progress, getting more and more mobile. I'm upset that since I'm working now I will miss firsts of hers. I want to share everything with her.
I thought it would be harder to go back to work, but it seems right. She's not having too hard a time so I don't get upset about being gone when I get home. And, since I am working at Rite Aid where I am familiar with the work I don't have to learn anything new. It feels a little like going back in time and while I am there it seems almost odd that I am married and have a child.
