I did better than I thought I would...

Yep, today was the day I've been dreading for weeks... Not only was it Deagan's first day in daycare, it was also my first day back at work. I got up and we (and by we I mean Deagan only, lol) ate breakfast. I got all his stuff together, with mom's help of course. We were out the door by 7:15-ish. Deagan was fast asleep when I dropped him off. I got my code for the door all worked out and I'm able to clock him in and out of the computer at drop off and pickup. Talked to the girl that works in the infant room for a little bit, let her know when he ate last and let her know that he was a slow and messy eater. She loved how tiny he was, she scooped him up and cuddled him while I put the carseat in the closet.

Whoops, time for Deagan's bath... I'll come back as soon as he's asleep in his crib.

Ok, I'm back. Anyway, so I gave him a kiss goodbye and told her to call me if she had any problems or questions. I got in the car and started heading the 10 miles to work. I started tearing up just about the time the daycare sign was out of sight. :o( It's hard leaving your baby with stangers! I know they won't always be strangers, but it's like leaving your arm or your leg. I need those to function ya know! I think if he would've been awake when I dropped him off it would've been harder. I tried to check on him on my first break and again at lunchtime. Both times the line was busy. I figured if they weren't callin me then he's probably just fine.

My first day bac went pretty good. There's only been some minor changes since I was last there. I had Emily with me today so she was telling me all of the new things as she remembered. I pretty much jumped right back into my normal routine. Did my monday reports and reconcilations, looked at the supplies to see if any needed ordering, followed up on the third party orders and then started on the orders left over from the previous night. All in all it was an ok day. I saw one of my regulars and had to bust out the pictures on my phone, lol.

So then I went to the GYM today, yay!! I did pretty good, but I didn't want to overdo it. So I went on the stationary bike for 25 minutes (9 miles), then did some lower body weight lifting. I am SO much weaker than I was a year ago... but I'll get there. It felt really good to sweat, get all that stress out. The whole time I was on the bike I was imaging that I was riding on my bike on my way to get Deagan. It was good motivation to go fast! Lol. I have a meeting in Austell tomorrow, it's a Copy Center Specialist and General Manager meeting so I get to ride with my honey! We'll both take Deagan to daycare tomorrow, that way I can show him how to clock him in and out and where to put the carseat.

When I picked him up there was only one other baby there, he seemed about 3 months I guess. Deagan was just alert and awake sitting there looking at the daycare lady. She was a cute girl, he was probably trying to flirt, lol. I scooped him up and loved on him for about 5 minutes before putting him in the carseat. As soon as we got in the car he was passed out. When we got home I loved on him a little more, then let mom love on him. After she had only had him about 3 minutes, I pouted my lip and said, "I want him back..." Lol. I missed him so much! I am so glad I got those precious 6 weeks with him where I snuggled him as much as possible. I know that now that I'm back at work the days will just fly by and he'll just get bigger and bigger. :o(

So that was my day...
