3 Months old






I LOVED being home with Colton for 12 weeks and as much as I love my job and it brings me a lot of fulfillment, I get so much joy from being a mom. I've always thought it was such a big part of GOD's purpose for me and everyday I know this more and more.  I went back to work 2 weeks ago and it was sooo hard to leave him!!! I cried several times but the worst seemed to be when I was getting ready to leave and when I got home (which Bobby thought I'd lost it a little) but it was these times I realized how much I'd missed of his day and it made me so sad. It's gotten better gradually and he has a great time at daycare part of the week and with grammy 1 or 2 days. I want to be with him but I'm grateful at least that he's happy and sleeping through the night which is awesome!  I cherish our evenings and weekends and maybe some day we can get out of debt enough that I could be home more.  Work has been going very well and I enjoy it while I'm there, I just miss my guy.  Colton smiles all the time now and loves to watch everything. It's so much fun to watch him bond with Bobby more now that he is more interactive.  Colton's a bit of a stinker when I'm taking pictures, he'll smile and laugh and then I go to take a picture and he stops, I'll catch more soon:)
