Mommy's back to work =0(

So this week was my first week back to work. Two weeks earlier than I was suppose to. Glad I called the District though because they would of put me on the sub list when I would of came back the 7th.
When the summer was nearing in May I went to the District to talk to them about me being on Maternity leave and how that would work. They said they would get me a sub starting in Aug. because I wouldn't be coming back when school started because that would be the time when the Dr. would take me off anyways. But they told me to call as soon as I get home from the hospital and let them know so I can start my 6 weeks or 8 weeks off. So I did, I called and I was told to come back Nov. 7. and then the odd thing is they said that I might not go back to my student Erica because her sub might be working out. So then I thought ok.. so then will I not have a job. So I decided last Friday to call and see what was going on. They told me that her sub was working out perfectly and they had 3 positions to fill by Mon. but since I won't be back until the 7th they will just put me on the sub list when I get back. Meaning I won't work everyday.. just when someone is out sick. So I told them well I need a job, so I will call my Dr. and see if I can be released early. So my Dr. faxed the released to Ro's work and I went to go pick it up and then dropped it off Mon. morning and went to Mary Lou Dietrich and told them I was the new aide in Mrs. Velarde's class.
The great thing about my new job is I already know the teacher and classroom aide. I worked with them about 5 years ago. They were Katie's teachers but I wasn't in their room, when she was in there. I just helped them out time to time. I also subbed in there a couple times. There are 17 kids in the class and 6 adults. The teacher, teacher's aide, and 4 one on one's. I am working with a girl named Alissa.. It's Erica's little sister. They look a lot a like and they do a lot of the same things by the way they eat to certain mannerisms. The main thing how they are a like is that they aren't potty trained. So changing diapers again.. =0/ So diaper changing at home and at work.. FUN! lol
The first week was hard for Jossy, as soon as Mommy came home it was like I can't go to sleep Mommy's home. So she was up from 3:15pm-10 pm. She would fight and fight to stay up. I guess since hearing Mommy's voice all day long to only hearing it part of the day was hard for her. But yesterday when I came home she was already asleep so she slept for awhile and then went back to sleep after she woke up for awhile. I guess she must of heard it was Fri. and Mommy would be home for the weekend. ;0)
Hopefully this weekend she will go back to her sleeping schedule. We will see.

First time at a restaurant..

So the 19th was my Dad's birthday and we went to Modesto Sukiyaki on the 20th to celebrate. Of course Jojo slept the whole time except when Uncle David messed with her feet. :0/ Stinky Uncle Dad made her upset! It was nice to go out to dinner with the whole family for her first time. My Dad, Step-Mom, my Sister, Uncle David, and Aunt Kim. We got a lot of special dishes not on the menu, they were so yummy. Even I got to eat sashimi which I have missed so bad. It was so fresh it was like it melted in my mouth! YUM YUM! We had a lot of fun and Dad got some nice gifts.

Mommy and Daddy's first date night

She was the perfect angel for Va Va and Grandpa Hal last night. Mommy and Daddy had their first date night. We went to see 50/50 at the theaters. It was a really good movie but I had to use at least 3 tissues. Then we went to do some shopping. Ro bought her a drying rack for her bottles and some candy corn for Grandpa Hal for watching her for us. We were going to go to dinner but we had a late lunch about 2 or so. Maybe next time. Before dropping her off at my parents we met one of my friends from high school and bought her pack and play from her. We needed one but had put it off till the day we needed it. LOL It's a very nice one with a bassinet and diaper change part to it. Thank you Alysia! Ro and I are still doing our weird sleep schedule. I go to bed at 11 and wake up at 3 am. and then he goes to bed and I stay up with her till she goes back to sleep. Then I try to go back to bed too. Sometimes she stays up from 3am-7am. But since I'm going back to work Nov. 7 we are gonna have to figure something new out. Then when Ro goes back to work in Dec. hopefully we will have a sleep schedule down pat.

Jo Jo is holding her head up longer now and we put her on her tummy time mat and she kept putting her legs under her like she was trying to crawl. Crazy girl! She's eating more and more and staying up longer. Still loves her bath's and her Boppy.

3 more days and my baby will be a month old..


WOW! Time has just flew by. 3 more days and my baby will be a month old. She's staying up more often and sleeping a little more. Also eating more. She can hold her head up more longer too. Ro and I are getting used to our weird, non-existing sleep time. LOL Ro stays up late with her, and I get up about 4 am and stay up with her till Ro gets up again. Around 1 or 2 or so.. Everyday isn't the same though. Sometimes one of us gets a little more sleep than the other. ;0) We are enjoying the visitor's and Josslyn is enjoying meeting friends and family.

I've only driven once, down the street to Grocery Outlet but the next day I was sore. So I'm still weary about driving quite yet. But I do feel like I'm healing more and more each day. I'm finally getting my nails done today. Man this is the longest I've gone without getting my nails done. They are so long!!! I'm actually gonna drive to Turlock by myself. So hopefully I won't be sore tomorrow.
