Dunne Family: This week vs last week

This week was quite an adjustment week for the Dunne family. I started work on Monday and that was extremely HARD on me. Marcus did OK though. My mom took care of him on Monday and Tuesday and Curtis took care of him the rest of the week. Luckily, I don't work a typical 8 to 5 type of job but nevertheless, I think it was the hardest week of my life.

The week before last was MUCH better. I was really trying to savor everyday with Marcus since I knew I was going to be going back to work. One of the most exciting things we did was we went to the pool at Grandma Betty's (Curtis' grandma's house). It was super warm...like a bathtub...he was practically falling asleep esp since it was close to his naptime. Here are some pictures from that day...

Aww...this is our little family...do u think we are happy?

We also gave him his first food, rice cereal! I think that was the highlight of our week. Curtis was home so he got to share in the joy with me. Here are some pics of that...

Then on Easter Sunday we drove down to Santa Barbara to meet up with my brother, sister-n-law, neice and my parents at Bacara for brunch. It was fabulous!! I was determined to eat 3 plates. I've lost all my baby weight and I don't seem to be having any problems losing more so I am pretty proud to say I ate all 3 plates plus dessert and still lost 2 pds. he he :) What can I say, other than I LOVE breastfeeding!!! One of the many perks of breastfeeding...fast weight loss for the mommie. Well here is a picture of my mom and him from brunch...
