Moore Gossip: 3 Months

Well...I thought it would be easy to post once a month on this blog. Turns out motherhood takes more time than I thought! I write this with baby sound asleep on my shoulder. Feeling his steady breaths on my chest, smelling his baby smell, it is pure bliss. It even outweighs my desire to pee... bad timing there.

We have had a summer of adventure, learning, and fun. I am officially going back to work this Friday. Am I scared? Hells yes. Am I ready? Actually, yes. It has been almost 9 months of time off, and I am excited to get back to it. Tonight I am going in for a few hours to dust off the cobwebs in my post-pregnancy brain, figure out where everything is, what my passwords are and maybe read a few thousand emails. I have been told it will all come back to me, but I have never been away from any job this long, so we shall see.

I am excited to be settling into my new lifestyle and role as a part-time nurse and full-time mom. It still sounds weird to call myself "Mom," but I love it nonetheless.

I am overwhelmed by the idea of explaining all of the adventures we have been on, so here are some pictures.

Camping with a five-week old was a success! His onesie didn't lie, a "Happy Camper" he was!

Our tent (that Sean has had for 20 years) leaked...surprise, surprise. Sean's middle of the night creativity kept us dry!

We visited Aunt Bryn and Uncle Rod. Bryn introduced herself appropriately as his Auntie Mame and he looked up at her and smiled a huge gummy grin. "You just bought yourself a trip to Australia," she replied. We even realized that Jay looks A LOT like Rod's baby picture!
