Day 2

Another day at work; another day away from my little man :(

So Owen wasn't so happy today. He slept until I had to wake him up to get ready. That really made me think about how happy I'll be when we have a nanny. Never wake a sleeping baby!

Actually, Owen was quite happy this morning. He got dressed and went to Raj's. He was happy to see Raj and wasn't sad when I left (although I was). Unfortunately, he protested throughout the day for her - wouldn't eat, wouldn't nap and did a good amount of crying. Poor baby.

I was so sad when I called around noon and heard he wasn't eating well. I had a hard time concentrating... but since I had so much work it was easy to get distracted. However, I felt guilty the whole time. My baby is starving at a stranger's house and I am developing a sampling scheme for a plastics company. What kind of momma am I?!?

When I arrived home Owen was napping - thanks to good ol' Dad. When he woke up he was very smiley and happy. I nursed him and he ate with vigor. For the rest of this evening he has been very happy and laughing. I guess he is no worse for it.

I am so nervous about tomorrow though. I really hope he'll eat better. I don't want him to have a dramatic change in his eating habits - especially since he's been doing so good. I know he has to adjust but it doesn't make this process any easier.

Well it's Owen's 17 week birthday and I made sure we got a family picture. I look a little ragged but so happy to be with my family.
