Oh how I loved my sweet sweet vacation time, but as of this past Sunday l was officially back to work. My lovely vacation from work ended and it's back to juggling childcare, extreme multi tasking and those dreaded night shifts. Lucky for me, the time off work left me feeling rejuvenated and I feel like I got a lot of things accomplished.
Heading out to The Wedgewood Hotel for Afternoon Tea with a girlfriend.

Back to work day 1. Big white shoes and all! 
Looking for something?
Well, Hello There!
Mama in the City since 2008 and blogging since 2009!
My first apartment baby is now a full on boy and we struggle with finding space in our condo for his growing toy collection. I'm also a new mum to our second apartment baby, born January 13, 2012!
I have a husband who is an excellent cook and takes amazing photos. I work as a labor and delivery nurse and really love the work that I do and gave birth to baby #2 at my work place.
I use this space to write about my family and to share my passion about breastfeeding, birth and parenting. I have a fantastic purse collection and have loved watching it grow, mostly lovely gifts over the years from my husband. I currently have a closet full of purses that are too small or impractical to fit a diaper or sippy cup in, and so they are on hold for future years.
Have a question or a comment? Email me! I also love to read comments left on posts, so feel free to leave me a note!

To be honest, the second picture isn't really horrible nurse shoes...sort of sporty like! LOVE the first pair. Is that orange color?
May 18, 2011 at 1:35 PMAt least you get to wear somewhat comfy shoes at work. I'm stuck in heels! UGH!
May 18, 2011 at 2:17 PMI love your "tea" shoes!!
May 18, 2011 at 9:05 PMThat's a fun post!
May 18, 2011 at 9:38 PMHope it doesn't take long to get back into your "working" groove!
Yay for ticking off boxes on the to-do list!
Love that! Clever. I bet dressing off work hours must be fun for you. Those shosies are adorable. I heart flats.
May 19, 2011 at 9:17 AMHello fellow Vancouver Mom blogger! Just found your site and love it. I so know that feeling of returning from vacation feeling rejuvenated and not wanting to go back to work and return to reality.
