My maternity leave came to an end on June 30th as I went back to work. I knew it would be hard to go back to work but I never dreamed it would be as hard as it was. I was sad to leave my baby for the whole day. I had left her for a few hours at a time but not for the whole day. I wasn't sure if June 30th at 4:30 pm would ever come! Thankfully my mom watched Madelyn on June 30th & July 1st plus then we had a 4 day weekend ahead so those things made the transition back to work a little easier.
Madelyn & I had such a great time while I was off work. We were busy almost every day. We visited Auntie Carla for lunch a few times, we had play dates with the Papke's and some of my other friends as well as lunch dates. My mom came up quite a bit which was fun for all of us.....she was able to spend time with Madelyn & I was able to rest and do some errands. Ryan's mom, Emily, came up and spent a couple days with us and we met Ryan's family at the Mall of America in May. We visited Great Grandpa & Grandma Bishop and Cousin LeeAnn for lunch one day. The time went so fast. I know everyone says it but it is amazing how quickly Madelyn is growing up and all the things she has learned to do in only 11 weeks!
This is why I can't wait to get home!
