New Daycare

So how did Tommy's first week go at his new daycare?
He can't really tell us how it's going because the only words he says are dada and GO! But let's look at some baby indicators.

1.)  Eating
Old Daycare: Tommy was eating maybe half or less of a small container of baby food.  Plus he often didn't finish his bottles that I sent.  Oh yeah, and did I mentioned the EGGS????
New Daycare: He eats a whole medium sized container of baby food, crackers, teddy grahams plus both his bottles.... and no stinking eggs.

2.) Sleeping
Old Daycare: He would take an hour long nap a couple times during the day. The week we were moving into our house, the afternoon lady decided not to put him down for an afternoon nap because (she hates us?) she thought he would probably nap once we got home and we would be able to get more stuff done.  Thanks so much, lady.   That really worked.  *eyeroll*
New Daycare: He sleeps for 2.5 hours usually at lunch time.  They have a separate room for the cribs.  It's dark and quiet.  He goes down really easy. It takes him about 5 minutes to fall asleep on his own.  Good boy!

3.) Diaper Changes
Old Daycare: He was changed maybe 4 times a day.  He always came home in different clothes because there was poop on his clothes somehow.
New Daycare: He is changed 6 times a day and always comes home in the same clothes.

4.) Sleeping at Home
Old Daycare:  He would wake often at night.
New Daycare: He sleeps through the night.

So yeah, I would have to say that things are going very well at the new daycare.

 Tommy loves "gym time" in the morning.

 He doesn't cry when we drop him off or pick him up.  He does whine a little bit to let us know that he will miss us.  (He's a good boy!) But he usually crawls to the nearest toy and puts it in his mouth.

 He's in a class with other one+ year olds.  He is by far the youngest.  But he doesn't seem to mind.

 He has to wear shoes because they have slippery floors.  Check out that shoe wearing kid! He's looking over his report card for the day.

Apparently he doesn't think he ate enough.  Yum Paper!

He is having a little trouble with the transition and all the changes of late (new house, new daycare, new schedule).  He's pretty grumpy at night when he comes home.  I can't put him down or he cries.  But as soon as I nurse him, he's completely back to normal.  He's as happy and fun as can be.  He just needs his mama.  :)  He won't say it though.  He's still stuck on saying dada all the time.  One of these days... :)

But after the first week, we are totally pleased with the new day care.  Hooray for Kiddie Kollege! (Do you think that's been trademarked by the K-loving Kardashians???)
