I start work tomorrow! So many mixed emotions with this one - I am excited to be doing work again, never thought I'd say that, but I'd honestly rather be with Oliver. I am NOT excited at the thought of leaving him. Not one bit. I could and will cry about it tomorrow...I just know it. I know, though, that once the schedule works itself out, it will be a good job to be in. It is only part-time, though the month of September is orientation so it's full-time. After that it will be an average of 24 hours per week, but with a 24-hour weekend (2 12-hour shifts) every third weekend. Make sense? So with that added in, I only need to do 2 days a week. One will be a day shift, (6:30-3) and one an evening shift (2:15-11:45). So in reality, between Jeremy and I Oliver will only be in day care one full 8 hour day and then another day for only roughly 3 hours. Not too bad. I've just really gotten used to being here with him day in and day out. And it's not so much that I'm worried about Oliver and day care, but I'm worried that *she* won't know what to do - she doesn't know what he likes or how to make him stop crying. Oh...I hate that thought. Him just screaming his little head off and her snapping and doing something horrible.
Ugh.
I gotta go to bed...I will write when I got home from work tomorrow and will also post some pictures from our trip to Minot! Oliver did great - even gave us our first 6 1/2 hour stretch of sleep! Yeah!!
TTFN. :)

Your schedule doesn't sound half bad! I'm sure it will be an adjustment, but in time you just may come to appreciate it.
Garrett and I traveled your way yesterday. Went to Grand Forks to meet his cousin. What weather you had! Maybe you missed it because of your trip?
I love now going back and reading your old posts. I am 8 weeks today (about) and so I love to see your belly pics and hear your symptoms for the corresponding times. How fun!
Take Care!
