Back in the saddle

I’ve officially returned to work after a month off for paternity leave. While I’m enthused about being able to take a month off, it hardly seems like enough. Ella is just getting to the point where she’s going to be smiling and we’re getting our “routines” down pretty well. I think Michelle is also a little concerned about not having me around to hold Ella when she wants to accomplish tasks that require two hands or exclude holding a baby.

Luckily, I still have a fair amount of sick/vacation time I can use, so I’ll be taking 1 day a week off until Thanksgiving. Michelle is convinced I’ll still work this extra day, but I’m certain I’ll need the time for classwork instead. This is going to get interesting.

  1. You should try ditching the whole working thing and just go back to school full time. It’s definitely the best course of action. And you can totally find baby clothes at the Salvation Army for Ella in the interim.
