1st Day Back to Work


Yesterday was the dreaded day, I had to take Brynn to the babysitter and go back to work. I tried not to let it effect our weekend together, but of course I was so depressed all weekend long. In all reality, leading up to it was alot harder than actually taking her to the babysitter. I know that she is in good hands with Suzanne and also know that it is just 3 days a week, I figure if I have more days off with her than I have to work that is better than most people have it.


Then today we had to go for her 2 month appointment and 1st round of shots. It was so hard seeing her cry like that and be in pain, but luckily it was short lived at the doctors office and she has just been a little fussy this afternoon. The doctor did detect she has a heart murmur though. She didn't seem overly concerned but does want to look into it further. Next Friday she has to get an echo cardiogram done, they will send it off to Riley for one of their cardiologists to read and then we will go from there depending on what they find out. I talked to my sister-in-law this afternoon, Jana, who assured me that it is fairly common in newborns and usually something they do outgrow so we are hoping for the best.


Our nephew Brady is getting along just fine with his cast. Jana says he is now doing an army crawl around the house. I didn't figure he would be able to sit still for too long considering before he was a little boy always on the move.


I am excited about this weekend. Kristine, Lincoln and Little Lincoln are flying home for the grand reopening of Dairy Master. We have gotten so spoiled seeing them so often since Brynn has been born. Unfortunately no visits are scheduled after this one, so I am hoping it wont be too long until we can all see each other again.
