For 3 nights now Peyton has slept for 8 hours during the night, WOW!! The first night it happened I woke up to hear grunting around 4:50am and freaked out thinking oh no I slept through her cries, poor baby is probably starving. I even woke up Scott asking him if he had got up with her but he had said no. I could not believe she has slept for a solid 8 hours, which meant I had got 6 full hours of restful sleep. It was so nice the next day to feel a bit more refreshed and energized after getting a better nights sleep. She has been staying up more during the day so I'm sure that has helped contribute to it. I have tried to keep the schedule the same or close at night so she gets used to it and will continue to sleep through the night. I am sure that will change especially when I go back to work in 2 weeks.
Speaking of work, I took Peyton up to school yesterday! I had to take a picture with my students for the Harvest Festival and it was sooo good to see them. They were all so excited and jumped out of their seats saying Mrs. Carney, Mrs. Carney are you staying today... poor things I had to tell them no but in 2 more weeks. I was so touched to see their bright smiles and all the hugs they gave me so ready for my return. I showed the little one around to my team and the ladies in the office, but not the kids. I did not want them to be around her yet especially with flu season starting. After she gets her shots Ill be able to let them see her, so a few more months.
I can't believe how fast my maternity leave has flown, in 2 weeks I go back. Even though I am looking forward to being with my students I know that it will be so hard to leave my baby girl. I do look forward though to the holidays and the days that I will get to be home with her and off of work!
