Big Week of Firsts

We survived a number of firsts this past week:

Mommy's first week back at work (which I thoroughly enjoyed).  It is now clear to me that I am not the type of person that can be a full time stay at home mom.  It was pretty easy to leave Lily behind while I spent the day with walking, talking adults.  I think people are shocked when they learn that I love being back at work but Lily hasn't really been the easiest baby.  

Lily's first time with a sitter other than family.  Our new babysitter Liz will be coming three days a week to watch Lily until she goes to Appletree at the end of July and we love her.  I know we will be spoiled after these next few weeks of having Liz come to our house - especially Diesel.

Mommy and Daddy had their first night out without Lily.  Thanks Auntie Kait for getting married so we could party all night!  I think it's also safe to say this was our first night up past 10:00pm.  And Lily had her first overnight stay at Grandma and Grandpa's.  It was nice to get some stuff done around the house (as much as I could after a night on the town) but it was strange to not have her around for a few days.  I'm glad she recognized us today!




And probably the most exciting first - sleeping through the night!  Lily actually had two or three nights in a row of bedtime at 8:30pm and waking up at 6:00am.   Unfortunately for Grandma this hasn't been the case the past couple of nights.  I'm hoping it's because she's not at home in her own bed and she'll fall back into the new routine when we return home after the holiday weekend.  Keep your fingers crossed!
