I made it through my first day back at the office without having a meltdown. It was sad to leave the girls this morning, but I was so busy all day that I was heading home before I knew it. Caroline was of course up screaming at 5am. I tried rocking her, hoping she'd go back to sleep so I could get ready but she wasn't having it. So by the time 6am rolled around I fed both of them and then thankfully they played on their mat for a while so I could get myself together. The Nanny arrived at 7:15, I did a quick run-through with her and then was on my way to the train. I missed the girls and glanced at their pictures a few times throughout the day, and I was so excited to see them that when I got off the train at 6pm I was practically running the block and a half home! There is nothing better than walking in your door after a long day and having your babies smile the biggest smile you've ever seen when they see you! I love that by being apart all day, I cherish those couple of hours with them in the evening before they go to bed.
Tonight we tried sweet potatoes for the first time. The girls LOVED them! I think it's their new favorite (just like their daddy). Especially little Caroline, she gobbled them up so fast and we went through a whole jar in one sitting! Then we had to have a bath because there was food all over them, in their noses, hair, even in their ears. It was fun.
Sorry for the dark pictures, we need to replace some lightbulbs in our kitchen.
Caroline
