Well, I returned to work for my second Friday yesterday. Kevin decided he needed some help to deal with Corinne until she gets used to me leaving once a week. So, he, his mom, and his dad spent the day with our beautiful little girl. Again, when I left everything seemed promising... By the time I returned home they were all exhausted. She did eat while I was gone, that is a huge step. She even took two little nap. However, she also WAILED for multiple hours. I had no idea what to say to try to make them all feel better. All three of them tried everything they could think of to comfort her, to no avail. She is "too young" for separation issues like this. However, it does just seem that she is upset I am not with her. Corinne was excited to see me and remained in a good mood until she slept through the night. I was able to get back to counseling at work. It was nice to get back to work for a few hours.
Today Kevin and I took Corinne to Kensington. We saw lots of critters and other babies while we strolled in the sunshine. The whole family had a good time. It was nice to go do something together. It has been hard to get everything done we want to squeeze into the weekend and find time to go out and do things together. We are trying to think of fun family outings for the Winter...any ideas?
