The El was pretty empty this morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mondays-after-a-holiday#post-1254112 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 14:43:50 +0000 cascademom 1254112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a tough morning with LO this morning. He didn't want to get dressed or his jacket on. The straps were tights on his car seat, so I woke up DH to help. All of this was around 7:30am. So, I was running super late as well. I swore a few times. LO gave me a look when I did. Ugh, bad mom there. I got home, didn't wash sippys, and got out of the house as soon as I could.</p> <p>I have a ton of work to do too. I did some Cyber Monday shopping as well. That and the Pitch Perfect soundtrack made me less stressed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mondays-after-a-holiday#post-1254098 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 14:41:02 +0000 PurplePumps 1254098@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's why we decided to take today off! :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mondays-after-a-holiday#post-1254093 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 14:40:11 +0000 LuLu Mom 1254093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Monday sucks but a Monday after a 5 day weekend TOTALLY sucks :) I want to go home and relax with my family some more...too spoiled this weekend with time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mondays-after-a-holiday#post-1253986 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 14:08:09 +0000 doodlepoodle 1253986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I miss j and this week SUCKS at work.

Monday after 4 awesome days with my super cute baby DOUBLE SUCKS :( Wah.</p> <p>My work friend is back to work for the first day after maternity leave though, so I know her day is worse. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mondays-after-a-holiday#post-1253070 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 09:18:24 +0000 autumnlove 1253070@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>awwwh, Friday- Sun were great because DH was at home. I'm kinda sad to go back to work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mondays-after-a-holiday#post-1253054 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 09:13:46 +0000 blackbird 1253054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>aw thanks. </p> <p>man, my kid was freaking PSYCHED to get dropped off, haha. I think she missed T and her little friends over the holiday. As soon as I set her down, T got a giant grin and she started wiggling her arms to get picked up :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mondays-after-a-holiday#post-1253049 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 09:12:31 +0000 MsLipGloss 1253049@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: @littlek: BabyGloss did well at drop off . . . no tears, just big sad eyes as she reached for her teacher. It is still hard for me, but I know she has fun there and that it is the best place for her.</p> <p>@blackbird: *augh* I'm sorry you are still sick! That's such a crappy way to start the week. Feel better!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mondays-after-a-holiday#post-1253045 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 09:10:53 +0000 MsLipGloss 1253045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This morning was brutal (in terms of wakeup time and mama sadness), but LO did pretty well. The only reason I am glad to be back at work today is that I am almost done weaning, and having 4 days together was hard for LO (and for me . . .). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mondays-after-a-holiday#post-1253044 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 09:10:30 +0000 Smurfette 1253044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: R either. She was smiling at her teacher. It makes me feel better she missed her, at least I know she likes it there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mondays-after-a-holiday#post-1253038 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 09:08:17 +0000 mediagirl 1253038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Today was tough but not as tough as other Mondays I have had. M was a pistol this long weekend and I think she needs her routine to get back some of her happiness! </p> <p>I am just about to get started on work stuff now, though...I've been talking to coworkers for the past hour and a half. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mondays-after-a-holiday#post-1253036 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 09:07:25 +0000 littlek 1253036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: booo.. feel better </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mondays-after-a-holiday#post-1253035 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 09:07:14 +0000 littlek 1253035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: I know... it's sooo hard leaving them...

I'm also sick still, so I just want to curl up into a pile of grossness on my own couch </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mondays-after-a-holiday#post-1253022 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 09:00:58 +0000 Smurfette 1253022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: That is great!

Four days together was AWESOME! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mondays-after-a-holiday#post-1253018 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 08:58:52 +0000 swurlygurl 1253018@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>These next few weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas are just awful for me.
