Daycare!

This week the girls started daycare at a Kindercare near our works. It has been a rough transition but I know that it will get better. The first day was probably the easiest for the girls. I cried a little. Camille doesn't really understand what is going on so I hand her off and go take Evelyn to her teacher. That sounded bad. I tell her I love her, give hugs and kisses and then leave her with her teacher. Evelyn was good the first day but the 3rd was HORRIBLE!!! We were both in tears. I think it was because I sat down with her for a few minutes. I was thinking that would help but it didn't. Today was better, she still cried but I said a quick goodbye and left. When I picked her up her teacher said that she was better soon after I left.

Camille has been drinking from her bottles really well. I am glad as this was one of my main concerns. She has been taking shorts naps but that is better than none at all. She is doing well, although as soon as she sees me, she starts crying. It is the sadest thing in the world having to leave them everyday.

Week 1 done, many more to come. I took a couple of pictures on their
first day so please enjoy them. These were taken when they were still happy.

School starts Monday and I think I am ready. I have a GREAT group of teachers I am working with and the entire staff seems really great and supportive. I am looking forward to a good year. I am so thankful that I love the job because it makes it a LITTLE easier to drop the girls off than if I didn't like the job. So I am very thankful for that. I will try to keep this up to date but it may be harder so I am sorry.

Camille is 22.9lbs and now has 2 teeth. Big girl growing up so fast. My baby is not going to be a baby too much longer.

Evelyn is 23.5lbs and doing great (other than daycare). She is talking up a storm and loves her Camille. Camille is the first thing she talks/asks about when I pick her up at daycare. It is so sweet that she loves Camille so much. I am thankful.

Have a great weekend. I am off to enjoy the girls.
