Our Cute Little Bunny all Dressed up for Halloween!

WORK!!!! I return to work a week from Thursday. I wish I could go back part time but with my current job that is not something they would let me do. It's going to be so hard to be away from her all day, 5 days a week! She is my little buddy and I am afraid I will miss a big milestone when I'm at work like the first time she rolls over or her first word. She is going to be with my Mom full time till January and then she will go to daycare 4 days a week and my Mom will have her on Fridays. It's really nice that she will be with someone she already knows for a while before the big transition into day care but I will miss her so much.

Sleep: Another worry I have about going back to work is the lack of sleep. Juliet is getting way more predictable in her sleep patterns but still is not sleeping totally through the night. She goes to sleep around 7:30 or 8PM and wakes up around 2AM, goes back to sleep within 20 minutes, wakes up at 5:30AM, goes back to sleep within 20 minutes, and then wakes up for good around 8:30 AM. So not too bad but I wish I could get it so she only wakes up once in the night, twice is hard sometimes b/c I will have trouble going back to sleep at least one of the two times she gets me up. Oh well!!! She is getting better and better.

Naps: I am also working on getting Juliet to nap longer than 30 minutes and for the past two days she has take at least one long 2 hour nap!!! 2 hour naps are amazing and it helps me get things done around the house, plus she is so much more happy and playful when she gets good naps in during the day.

Juliet still loves her play mat the best during the day and loves grabbing her animals and moving around. Tummy time is still a very unhappy time for Juliet and she can only handle being on her tummy for a few minutes at a time or she will start to cry :( I try my best to get in her tummy time but it's hard when she hates it too much! She is such a happy baby and even happier when she gets good sleep during the day and night. I am truly blessed to have such a wonderful baby!!! Being a mom is the best :)
