Separation Anxiety

I can't believe that I'll be going back to work soon (this week, for 1.5 days). I stay up late so that I can make the days stretch longer. Dylan had his 4 month check up today, and as expected, he just fussed a little bit during his shots and was a perfect patient. He really is such an easy-going and happy baby. I miss him when I go to sleep, and I miss him even when I'm driving and he's in the back seat. I like having him near me at all times... I decided that I will start taking a lot of my vacation days this year. I'll have 6 weeks this year, so I plan on taking 5 weeks and rolling another week over to next year, so that I can take 5 weeks the following year too, although I hope to be pregnant again in 2013. 2 weeks are already bookmarked for Europe, and I will take at least 1 day off a month so that I can have 3 consecutive days with Dylan. I don't want to dwell on the fact that I'll be going back to work soon, because I feel like it will and has dampened my holiday spirit, so I will keep it tucked away in the back of my mind for as long as possible. I figured in January I'll start adjusting my schedule, feeding and putting him down earlier and waking earlier myself in the morning to start the day at a more workish time. I know, all good things must come to an end.
