The End of Maternity Leave

Today is the last day of my maternity leave. The closer and closer it got to it, the more and more I couldn’t stand the thought of leaving my little girl. So last Friday I went into my work and told them I just couldn’t come back to work. It’s a bit scary to quit my job but I don’t want to leave Irelynn and I don’t want to miss anything right now. I know I won’t regret being with her but I would regret missing out on seeing her grow. So I will be a stay at home mom for now. I’m very happy about it. We will see how it goes and hopefully I won’t have to go back to work too soon. I will be doing a few minimal things from home for my job at the City. So that will be nice to still be on the City payroll. If I need to look for another job someday I will still be in their system. For now, I’m so happy that I get to be with Irelynn everyday!

Irelynn was perscribed baby Zantac for her reflux. We'll see in the next few days how it works on her. She doesn't seem to like the taste too much. I tasted it and it was pretty gross.

She also had another bath last night and she just loved it this time! When I washed her hair she was all smiles and cooing. She really liked the head massage. Bath time is alot easier when she isn't screaming:) I love her spiky hair after her baths.
