Working Mommy

 I'm officially back to work this week and it's been a bowl full of varying emotions. On one hand I've missed my job and the people I work with as well as the consistent routine that makes my life seem to run smoothly, but on the other hand I keep having these bouts of serious sadness as I know that this is our last baby and I want to savor every moment as much as possible. When they are this little and they depend on you for everything, and not just anyone, but ME, she depends on me. I am her source of nourishment and her source of comfort.  

As I sit here writing this blog I have her snuggled up in my arms. That's right, as a mom of 4 I have learned how to multi task, work with only one available hand, and write a blog post on my cell phone....be impressed! 

In all seriousness though, I have learned something new with each child and have become more and more laid back in nature. My babies sense my calmness which has made my baby now pretty cool and calm....well, as long as Mommy is around. She's pretty much obsessed with me, lol, and I with her. 

I can't tell you how much fun I've had having a little girl in the house. Dressing her every day is like an event. I spend way too much time looking through all of her clothes deciding which outfit she will grace us with each day. 

She is the perfect completion to our family and all of us are so in love with her. Even my precious baby boy Oliver loves her so much. 

I am so blessed and I know that everything I have is because of the Almighty One, our awesome Father in Heaven. 

I am hoping to get more blog posts out and be much more frequent with my postings. I already have a book's worth of funny stories since I've last posted. My kids make for great comic relief. I've always thought we would have a hit reality show if people could see into our day to day happenings at home. 

I'm also planning to keep everyone up to date with my weight loss postpartum and the daily struggles. I'm an open book and want to let people know what real looks like.
