After my 3 month maternity leave from work, I went back to the bank at the beginning of this year. We were lucky enough to find a wonderful woman who runs an in-home daycare to watch Rylie. As much as I hate leaving Rylie during the day...Brian and I decided that it would be best for me to return to work this time around- only to start better preparing ourselves for me to stay at home when we have our second child (probably in about 3 years). It was never a goal of mine to be a "stay-at-home-mommy". But having Rylie has completely changed around my priorities in life. Plenty of things could change in 3 years, but at least I know I will have more of an option to stay at home next time, if I wish to!
Anyway...the point of this blog entry is to thank my step-mom, Peg, and my mom, Laura, for taking a week of vacation to come to OKC and baby sit Rylie (and Griff)! Our daycare provider was closed for 2 weeks and I knew the two of them would love the opportunity to spend some alone time with their granddaughter. Rylie was really able to bond with each of them and we were terribly sad to see them go!!
During Peg's stay...she found a bib that she had to buy for Rylie. The bib reads "I'm a McCutie!" And if you know my maiden name, you know why I love it so much!
She is a McCutie!! Love the blog! Grandpa and Granny miss you, Rylie!!
