Maternity Leave

I have been on maternity leave for about 7 1/2 weeks. It's awesome and I have LOVED having the time with Adam. We keep pretty busy by visiting friends and family or just running errands around River Falls and Hudson. Of course, I take plenty of pictures of Adam too. He must be sick of me shoving the camera in his face! Here is a recent shot:

We have been so lucky to have such nice weather this fall. Today is a bit on the chilly side so we have stayed inside. Adam has actually be sleeping for a while now which is why I have some extra time to blog. Granted the kitchen isn't cleaned up and the laundry isn't started...but I have enjoy scrapbooking and some TV time. My latest show is LOST. I watched it while it aired on TV but it's been fun to re-watch it. I have a lot of downtime for TV when feeding Adam or pumping so I get to see quite a few episodes in a day. Next up for TV series viewing will be Grey's and then Parenthood.

I am looking forward to going back to school and will be ready when the time comes. I think I am most anxious about the transition and figuring out everything that comes with the change of going back to work; getting Adam to daycare, pumping, getting enough sleep, and lesson planning! I know it will all fall into place but I can't help but be a little anxious already. Of course, I am going to miss being home with Adam and having so much time together but I also really miss teaching at this point and am excited to get back!
