Back to Work

Today is my first day back at work after my maternity leave. I am back part time, for three days a week, so I still get to spend a couple of days with Holden. I always intended to take the full year off but I ended up having 13 months in total, including all of my accrued holidays, so it was a bit of a shock to the system having to set an alarm to get up this morning. I had to go and wake Holden up but I managed to get us both ready, drop Holden off with my dad and get to work on time. Hopefully I can manage the same tomorrow and Wednesday when Holden will be going to nursery. So far I'm getting used to all the systems again and I'm pretty sure that very soon its going to feel like I've never been away.

Holden: Twelve Months / One Year

Holden's twelfth monthly photo, taken on the 1st of every month.     Holden turned twelve months old on the 1st of February. It's hard to believe my little boy is 1 already, its been such a fast year with so much happening, but we made it! January was fairly quiet and Graham spent the first week in Denmark with his work. Our flat was put up for sale on the 9th and sold within 3 weeks which meant we only had to do 3 open viewings but it was definitely a lot quicker than we expected. We need to move out by the 8th of March so as our new house wont be ready until July, we are moving in with my parents for a few months. Holden loves his grandad so I think he will love it and it will also be a lot easier when my dad is looking after him one day a week. Otherwise we went to a 1st birthday party, had a couple of trips to the soft play centre, some lunches with friends and lots of planning for Holden's birthday party. Then we got to celebrate Holden's 1st Birthday. He w
