Back to Work

Wow, my maternity leave went by so fast!! After 12 weeks off, I'm back to work. Before I had Ella I had planned soo many projects for my time off... and I got none of them done. Instead I spent 12 amazing weeks hanging out with my new baby girl, which was so much better!!!

I am very lucky to work for a great company and they are letting me bring Ella to work! At first, I was a bit worried about how I would get anything done with a baby in the office. And the first day was definitely a trial... Ella was off of her routine and was fussy most of the day. But on day two she settled in and everything went smoothly! Now she's back in a routine and loves going to work with me.
