Nicholas starts daycare tomorrow

[debithaa]

So, I know I have whinned about this in the past but the time is here. Tomorrow Nicholas starts daycare. He will start at 2 days a week and gradually increase to full time - I am guessing sometime around March. I am really comfortabel with the provider I choose and she truly seems to really care about the children. She has four other children

oh i know just how you feel about leaving nicholas in daycare.
i felt the same exact way. then after the first day when i went to pick her up, i felt much better. i saw how much fun she had there with the kids. it made me feel so much better. i just had tons of mommy guilt for making her stay somewhere other than with me during the day.
take him a little early on his first day and you can sit and watch him and how he plays with the other kids. this helped me adjust to the daycare. in fact, i still go and sit to watch her. before and after work.

i love the vocabulary they are starting to use now. what happened to our babies? :( but so much fun right now!
the mall sounds like fun. i think i am going to go that way tomorrow. i have never tried scrapbooking, it kind of intimidates me. hopefully you can go out and have some time to yourself today.

How did it go? Transitioning to a new daycare is so hard. I bet that he will grow to love it soon, though. I agree that getting a chance to watch him a little without him knowing would be great. When I go to pick Sarah up I will stand at the door and watch her for a few minutes before she realizes I am there and it is nice to see how much fun she is haivng.

That is so cute about all his words - I can't believe how much language these little babies are gaining every day!
