I started back to work at a quarter time this month and we gradually got more organized about me working and trying to do other things as well. After the trip to San Diego, we did a lot more trips out of the house that were longer and filled with more things to do and a few feedings on the run.

I got more exercise, did more cooking by myself, and gradually found that working really was something I needed to do. Still, taking care of Jet has been a real treat, too, even with the middle of the night feedings that did continue through his fourth month.

Jet got a lot bigger, and has started to completely fill his bassinet, so we went on some expeditions to find him a crib that we were happy with.

I also experienced my very first Mother's Day as a mother. That was quite the trip.
