It's mad just how fast time has gone. I've been working for just over 3 months now. Christmas has been and gone, I've passed my probationary period and it's just six weeks to Teddy's second birthday! Other than that, I have to say not much else has happened. It's just been a focus on getting into a routine to ensure I get Teddy and myself to where we need to be on time.
Thank goodness Teddy absolutely loves nursery. He goes in just 3 days a week and has made lots of little friends. He knows when he's going and asks to see the babies, and even gets upset when it's our day off and he has to spend the day with me. Charming! I'm just so happy and relieved at just how much he loves going. It's really helped with his development in all areas and getting him used to not being with me twenty-four-seven.
It feels awful to admit, but I've really enjoyed getting back into work. As much as a love being with Teddy and miss him when I'm not with him, it's lovely to be out of the nappy and dinner time routines for a few hours, to have uninterrupted adult conversation and to feel like I'm succeeding at something. The guilt eases a little seeing his happy little face when I go and pick him up from nursery, the way he jumps up and runs to me with his hands in the air, all excited. It's my favourite part of the day finding out how he's been and what he's been up to.
Sundays have now become our family day. It was difficult to begin with to muster the energy to do anything, with working through the week myself, and Adam watching over Teddy on the Saturday. We just wanted to curl up and have a lazy day. But the last few weeks we have made the effort to get out the house and go for walks. Teddys been in his element, but a got a little annoyed at the ducks last week because they didn't want his Pom bears. Fussy little buggers.
