Daycare

Cooper started going to daycare last week, and I headed back to work. So, needless to say, the last couple of weeks have been pretty emotional around our house. The place where he is going is great, don't get me wrong. The teachers are nice and loving, the other kids are happy, it's just more difficult on me than I thought it would be. I miss him so much during the day! Luckily his daycare is just around the corner from work, so I can go check on him at any time, and so far I've gone almost every day to see him during lunch! It helps me get through the day. I know we will all adjust...eventually...I think.

Cooper's room has eight children (ages three months to 10 months) and two teachers (plus one "floater" teacher that comes in to help with feedings).
That's Cooper on the little yellow mat!

This is how Cooper was during one of my visits. I waited as long as I could, hoping he might wake up. But, he didn't! But I still gave him a little kiss to let him know I was there!
Cooper's friend Caden is going to start going to the same daycare this week, so that will be nice to have the boys together. Caden's mom, Erin, works with me, so I'm sure she will join me on my daytime visits! Plus, it's just another set of eyes to check on things!
