Tribute to Mr. Mom
It is pretty clear by my lack of posts and commenting that I am back at work. Unfortunately, my work computer blocks all blogs, so I can't even look at work. The good news is that my blogging addiction as ceased, and I can go an ENTIRE day without looking at a computer. The bad news is that I miss out on all the goings on of my blogging buds.
I think Justin has been the most effected by my return to work because he ends up keeping Henley several evenings a week and one weekend a month. I have given him the nickname Mr. Mom. He carries all the baby accessories just like a pro, and his only request was a manly diaper bag which I granted. There is nothing cuter than a man and a diaper bag. His evenings no longer consist of ESPN and Fox soccer channel, but now dirty diapers and driving Henley to and from Kmart for me to feed her. I'm always anxious to see what Henley is wearing, because he always seems to find hilarious ensembles to put on her. It leaves me asking where did he even find that. Henley is smitten with her Daddy. Justin can make her smile like no one else, and she laughs out loud when he sings the Harlem Globetrotter's theme song. Who knew that could be SO funny? It makes my whole day when they come see me at work, and even the worst days miraculously get better. Justin has been wonderful and seems to enjoy every moment he spends with Henley.
Does anyone else notice Henley's attire? She is a girl--I promise!
I think we already have a Daddy's girl on our hands.

that made me cry! so sweet--there is NOTHING sweeter than a daddy and his little girl.
Too sweet. I'm NOT surprised that Justin is a good daddy. It cracks me up that he puts crazy outfits on her. I think Mike would do the same if given the chance. I know returning to work was bitter sweet for you , but she is in good hands. Have a great Christmas!!!
What a sweet post! I laugh thinking of Justin rolling up to K-mart for Henley to nurse - what a dedicated mother you are!!! I'm so sorry we haven't gotten together - where does the time go? Hopefully 08 will be a little slower! Looking forward to catching up with you guys soon!
So sweet!! Paul was the same way when Sophie was little bitty. One night he brought her to see me at work in only a diaper! My co-workers still talk about that!! I hope you are adjusting to being a working mom alright. It's such a hard transition.
Anyways, I've missed your blog. Keep the posts comin'!!!
Daddy's just do not know how to dress babies. Everytime Matthew dresses Brooks it is hard for me to go on without mentioning to him that nothing he put on Brooks matches. What is bad is that now he even tries and I still laugh when I see the outfit. That picture of Justin and Henley is so cute. Hope getting back to work is going well.
That is the sweetest post! You are very good with words, it made me feel alittle emotional!
