Daycare

AJ started his first week of daycare.  Steve took him his first day.  He stayed for a little while to make sure he was settled.  When he left he was already playing.  He picked him up for lunch and he snoozed the whole time.  So far so good.  The plan was to have Steve pick up AJ that night.  As I was walking to my car at 615 I got a text from Steve saying his car wouldn't start!  I work 30 mins from daycare and they close at 630.  So I started heading that way while Steve scrambled to get his car jumped.   I didn't get there till 645!  So embarrassing and upsetting on his first day.  Of course AJ didn't care. He was just rocking away in his chair.   But Steve had the car seat so we had to wait for him to get there.  Once in the car AJ started crying.  The worst cry I've ever heard him make!  So I started crying.  I was so flustered from being late.   I had to pull over and nurse AJ in a parking lot.  He nursed for 20 mins.  Poor baby.   Then we headed home.  Not the best first day.  On his second day Steve picked him up early!  And Friday I left early so I could make sure I was there on time!  AJ seemed to like daycare.  He drank well and napped well.  When I picked him up Friday he was asleep at 615 and slept till 830!  Being away from AJ sucks but I'm glad he's happy at daycare.

  1. It's a tough transition so try to be easy on yourself. I have nursed Keira in countless parking lots ;-) you're doing great!
