Daycare and Jumparoo

Well today we had a staff develpment day so lunch on our own. So I went up to Katie's daycare and hung out with her for a little bit. She is doing so good there. When I got there, she was in the exersaucer. This is a new thing. She's really good now at holding her head up so Andy and I tried to put her in her jumparoo last night. She's not quite tall enough for it so we put a foot rest under her to sit on. But Andy told them at daycare this morning that they can start letting her play in the exersaucer now. She loved it.


After I ate my lunch I held her for a while then put her down for a nap because she was getting fussy. She had been up 2 1/2 hours which is a pretty long time for her. Now at home I think she knows that if she cries long enough, I'll pick her up. She usually cries for a few minutes and sometimes for about 5-10 minutes and that's all I can take before picking her up. Well, at daycare, she was fussing when I put her down and before I even walked to the other side of the room, she had stopped fussing and gone to sleep. She does better there than she does at home!



I got to meet her lead teacher and visit with the 2 teachers in there for a while. I feel really good taking her there now. The teachers are really nice and have lots of experience with babies in daycare. Both have grown kids of their own and one has grandkids. I'm so glad I got to spend some time up there with her and getting to know her teachers.
