I have hardly anything to wear, but I guess the good news is that I get to go shopping.<\/p>\n<p>I still haven&#8217;t decided if I am going to work full-time or not. I am wavering.  On one hand, I feel so guilty even <em>thinking <\/em>about going back to work full-time and leaving Adrianna with our neighbor, Janette. On the other hand, I would continue to make the sacrifice of getting up at an ungodly hour (which will become even more ungodly due to the longer commute time) so that I can be home by 3 and spend all afternoon and evening with Adrianna. And Greg doesn&#8217;t take her over there until 9, so she wouldn&#8217;t even be there full days. That helps appease my guilt somewhat, but it is just such a hard decision. So I keep putting it off, but I cannot get it off of my mind.<\/p>\n<p>Another plus is that Adrianna loves Janette and all the little boys that are in her childcare with her. And she learns from them too, I think. I cannot make up my mind. And we like Janette too. She has been such a blessing to us. She is a great neighbor, a Christian, a friend, and very affordable too when it comes to childcare. And I guess I should mention that I do really enjoy my job and it pays pretty well. So there really are a lot of pros to going back full-time. But then I picture my sweet baby&#8217;s face and the guilt comes flooding back like a tidal wave. Does that feeling ever go away?<\/p>\n<p>Can someone make up my mind for me? *sigh* I know, I know, I need to make my own decision. Greg has already told me it is up to me. He is totally fine with me working full-time. How come this type of decision is so much harder on mom than it is on dad?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So we found out last week that our team has to move to our new building in Aurora this coming Friday, which means my commute time is going to double.
