To help my transition back to work, I'm working 4 days a week initially. I'm planning to take Wednesdays as my day off most weeks so that I only have to work two days in a row (though the day will vary depending on what Carter needs and what I have going on at work) . Yesterday was my first Wednesday off. It was also Carter's first day at daycare. Since I was off, I just took him in for a few hours to get us acclimated. As the daycare director suggested, I kept myself busy and distracted while he was there. Dad and I ran some errands, took a nice bike ride up the Hudson and had lunch. Carter seemed to do just fine.
Today was my first real day back in the office. I was very busy, and I am glad to be back working, but it is actually so much harder to be a couple of miles away and not be with Carter than it was to be a couple thousand miles away earlier in the week.
Thomas and I took Carter to "school" before work this morning, but he didn't do a full day at daycare because his Daddy Phil picked him up early for some grandaddy-grandbaby time. Carter was all smiles when I got home from work.
School makes Carter very, very sleepy...
