This was a big week for all of us ... Mommy was going to be heading back to work ... so we spent a lot of time cuddling this weekend ... and going to Target ... Mommy and I went on Saturday, Sunday and Monday ... buying stuff, returning stuff ... she knew it was going to be a while before she could go so she had a lot to take care of ... besides I love going to Target ... there is a lot for me to look at and I always fall asleep by the end of the trip ...
Tuesday morning Mommy woke up at the crack of dawn and got me up as well and after getting ready we headed off to work ... while Grandmommy is out of town Mommy is taking me to work on Tuesday and Friday ...
Having me with her made her transition back to work a bit easier ... and everyone in the office was so happy to see me ... it had been a while and I am much bigger now ... and I smile more too ... they also LOVED seeing me sitting up in my bumbo seat ...
Wednesday was much much harder on Mommy ... it was the first day she had to leave me for the day ... my new nanny Berthe was going to spend the day with me but mommy was a wreck about it ... Daddy had to be at work early so mommy stayed home until Berthe got here at 8:30 ... Mommy showed her around and told her all about what I like and when I eat and all that good stuff ... then she kissed me about 100 times and said good-bye ... and she didn't start crying till she got out the front door ... but she did cry almost the whole way to work ... and she called home several times to see how everything was going ...
Meanwhile Berthe and I went on a walk and went to the park ... she is very sweet to me and loves to dress me up to go out ... I like hanging out with mommy but Berthe is pretty great too ...
Thursday Berthe came again ... this time though Daddy hung out with me in the morning ... got me up and changed me and fed me ... it was nice having time with Daddy ... Berthe and I played in my exercaucer and we went to the park ... but I was happy to see Mommy when she got home ... anytime I see her now I get a huge smile on my face ...
Friday I got to go to work with Mommy again ... I didn't sleep well Thursday night so I was a bit cranky in the morning ... but eventually I fell asleep while everyone was holding me ...
I had my 4 month check up on Friday afternoon ... I had to get 4 shots which I was NOT happy about ... but the doctor said I am doing great ... I weighed 18 pounds 4 ounces (up from 16 pounds 4 ounces at my 3 month appointment) and I was 25 1/4 inches long ... but the nurse said she thinks I was mismeasured last month because it says I was 25 inches which was a growth of 3 inches from 2 to 3 months ... the doctor said I could start having solids sometime in the next month if Mommy was ready to do it ... I've already had a little rice cereal but in the next couple of weeks Mommy is going to make some that isn't so runny to see how I like it ... I don't have to go back to the doctor until my 6 month check-up ...
