Yesterday was my last official day of maternity leave. I had visions of taking Vivian for a nice leisurely stroll in the September sunshine, having lunch downtown with Keely and maybe even squeezing in a nap. Instead, I got:
Half an inch of rain
Two clothes-staining diaper blowouts
A trip to urgent care with a streppy kindergartner
A subsequent trip to get antibiotics in the downpour with a fussy baby and the other with a 104 degree fever.
And for lunch..wait, did I even eat lunch yesterday?
Yep. I think it is time to go back to work.
Oh, no fun. The clothes-staining blowouts are the worst (I've had reasonable success with a combo of Oxyclean and Zout, but nothing is guaranteed). And a 104 fever? No good. I hope Stella recovers quickly and, even more importantly, that Vivian doesn't come down with it too!
