We start our new daycare on Monday!?! OMG, I am so nervous, scared, sad, etc... It is the first non-family member who will care for E. I just know she is going to *LOVE* it so much. She is going to love playing with all the other kids and doing crafts and learning activities. I just hope the first morning goes smoothly and she doesn't really care to much about me leaving. If I have to leave her crying out for momma... I am going to bawl my eyes out in front of the staff. Not something I want to do. I'm sure they'd expect it from a mother of a 3 month old... not a mom of an almost 18 month old! When I say staff, I mean she has a couple girls who work with her in her home. This woman runs 2 daycares in her home. One upstairs and one downstairs. The home is beautiful. The yard is enormous and covered in toys. We drove by just to check it out ahead of time and are going over there tomorrow night to meet her and get a tour. Then on Friday I took off the afternoon and we are going to go spend the afternoon there. Just to let E play and get a bit more comfortable. God I hope I don't break down in front of everyone. I am so hormonal during certain parts of the month... luckily by Monday I will be just finishing up with aunt flo... (TMI,sorry) so my emotions will most likely be in check by then. (Let's hope!)

Today I met with the woman who does all the daycare licensing in our county. She was able to read me some parent evaluations. This daycare has had no complaints... in over 20 years. That is pretty awesome. The woman I met with said that this provider goes at everything 110 percent. She also told me that often when a new popular toy comes out this provider will go to the store and buy 5 of the item, so that the children don't have to fight over 1. Everything I'm hearing is making me feel better and better about this daycare thing... although I still wish I could be a SAHM. I'll fill you in after our meeting tomorrow. Think positive thoughts for us please!

Ok, totally different topic... I didn't create my blog until a year after my wedding. So I thought I'd go down memory lane and share some of my favorite pictures.

My friend Melissa took all these pictures. She is an awsome photographer... I'd highly recommend her!
