3 Months

Dear Leo,

It's hard to believe that I delivered a teeny baby 3 months ago.




You are growing so fast. I now know what people mean when they say the time flies with a baby. I'm constantly attempting to memorize your coos, laughs, faces of glee and worry. It's a never-ending battle against time.


Thanks to your brother, I already know how to do most tasks one-handed. You're pretty easy-going to let me do what I need, as long as it only requires one hand. : ) For instance, right now: I've become an incredibly efficient one-handed typer. For this reason, I've been using my wraps a lot and they've been worth every penny.

In a couple of weeks, our world is going to turn upside down: I'll return to work, and you'll start spending your days between day care and Nana's house. Luckily, for both of us, I'll be able to visit you every day at lunch, and I think we will both be thankful for that. By the time Isaac was your age, I had already been back to work for five weeks. The decision to stay home with you longer was an easy one to make.

I just realized that today is our last full day together by ourselves at home. Daddy is taking off work between the holidays and Isaac will be home with us for part of the day tomorrow. I'm glad to have realized this before it was too late.

Life for us now is one big transition after another and I can't imagine what it would be like in any other way.

I love you very much, Leo.

Love,
Mommy
