My top five favorite things about not working for the past eight weeks:
1. being able to read a book in the middle of the workday
2. being able to clean the bathrooms or vacuum the living room in the middle of the workday (thus leaving Saturdays free for fun stuff)
3. helping H with his reading, writing, and math before he goes to kindergarten every day
4. taking T and the babies to meet my husband at work for lunch
and my most favorite...
5. relaxing on the couch every afternoon while T and the babies snooze away. And then I get to take a nap as well.
My break from working ends on Monday and I will admit that I'm nervous about starting back up again. Thankfully it's only part-time, which with the new demands on my time, is about all I'll be able to handle. Here's to hoping for a good first week back!
P.S. N seems to be eating a little better on the whole, although I never know how much she'll eat at a particular feeding. She might calmly eat four ounces without putting up a fight, or she might eat two ounces and freak out if I try and make her eat more. Yesterday, every other feeding went well, and this morning, she finished her bottle before her brother. Keep your fingers crossed that it continues!

i am sorry you have to go back to work! i hope it turns out to not be too stressful. one can hope, right?
Good luck with work! I'm so glad N is eating better.
Good news on the N front. I'm so happy. You are in my prayers over going back to work. I'd hoped you'd be able to swing something more project based. But you're in my prayers all the same. love you!
Best of luck with work ... just know I know exactly what you are going through trying to work from home (minus two newborn twins of course!) May the force be with you.
Ughh. I have totally dealt with the eating thing, along it was a little different because my kids SEEMED to be eating, but weren't gaining weight. Such a stresser. I'm glad she's eating better and good luck with work.
