Another
week has flown by. Our baby girl is now ten weeks old and she is making more
sounds every day and she is definitely finding out that those arms and legs
belong to her. I can honestly look at her all day. It’s just so fun watching
her discovering new things. I’ve also been spending more time on tummy-time
with her. She hates it! But slowly on she is getting better at it. And they say
it’s good for her, so we’ll keep practicing. I’m also still reading to her
every evening. I keep changing between Dutch and English books! And I’m having
a lot of fun with these stories, she definitely starts watching me more and
more. It’s possible that she’s just fascinated with the voice that tries to do all these different voices but fails miserable. LOL!!
On Tuesday
two of my colleagues came to visit. It was nice to see them again and hear how
everything is going at work. But it honestly also made me wish my maternity
leave could last even longer. LOL! There’s still a big problem with getting
enough nurses to keep everything going. But I won’t think about that too much
for now! Still 6 weeks to go before I have to go back.
Thursday my mom and I took Rosanne on her first Zoo trip. It was fun! We walked
and talked and enjoyed watching our baby girl sleeping in her stroller. I just
love the Zoo. I really hope to be able to go much more when Rosanne is older.
some episodes of Friends and Elementary this week, and I squeezed some reading
time in before bed. Hopefully I’ll be able to read a little more next week, I
just keep getting distracted a lot! But it was definitely a good week.

Delightful post. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Joanne 😉
Going back to work after maternity leave sucks but it doesn't take long to settle back into a new rhythm. Still, you have more time before you have to worry.
She's adorable, btw. 🙂
Thanks Nicci. She is definitely already a little heart-breaker. Everyone keeps telling me it will be nice too when I'm back to work etc. So I'll try to believe you guys. 😉
Happy Reading!

Oh, I like the look of Balancing in Heels. I'll have to check it out. Have a lovely week! Here's my Sunday Wrap Up Post. Hope you can drop by!
Thanks. I can't stop looking at her, especially when she is grinning. 😀

So hard to believe it has been 10 weeks already! Enjoy the time Maureen.
Crazy right?! Time sure goes by fast.
Oh wow, how does time fly this fast 🙂 your baby is seriously cute!!! (And I rarely find babies cute. I know I'm a horrible woman, but at least you know I truly mean the compliment! xD)
I hope you have a wonderful week 🙂
Aah Thanks Evelina. And you're definitely not a horrible woman. Before having Rosanne, I rarely thought babies were cute too. 😉
Happy reading!
Cute photo! I’m glad the baby is doing well and you had fun at the zoo. Have a great week.
Aj @ Read All The Things!

Maureen Congratulations on your beautiful baby girl. They are such a blessing 💞
Wow, that's a short maternity leave, here in Australia we get 6 months fully paid or 12 months half pay. I didn't realise how lucky we are.
Angelica @ Paperback Princess
Wow.. that's amazing. Here we have only 12 weeks maternity leave. I still had a lot of vacation days so I added those to my leave, but 15 weeks is definitely the max. But compared to other countries I hear we are lucky too.
