Tomorrow Lola will be having her first official day care experience. I will be going downtown for 1/2 a day to get everything sorted and settled for my first official full day on Monday. I admit, I'm a little nervous. I'm writing lists for our daycare provider of alll Lola's likes and dislikes. I have all the usual parent fears, what if she cries, what if she won't eat, what if she misses me. Or what if she DOESN'T miss me!! I know, she'll be fine.... but she's still so little to me......
It's been a busy week trying to get everything ready. I hosted my first and last Wednesday baby group meeting at our place. I am really going to miss those Wednesday afternoons with ladies and babies. We even had a story time in my honour called "when Momma comes home tonight", which made me feel much better about the process of leaving Lola. But I look forward to staying in the loop and joining in on activities when I can. Wil had to head off to Vancouver today for work but he will be back in time for the weekend. My parents have been down helping me to clean, cook and pick up furniture for the livingroom( they have a large truck!). As well as showering their only grandchild with loads of hugs, kisses and praise for her new tricks. It's been fantastic to have them here. For those of you that have parents closeby-I am offically jealous.
We also bought Lola a jolly jumper today. We got the expected results. Total uncontrolled bouncing and giggles. PERFECT!
It seems that this blog will be evolving into a working Moms' take on life. Expect some good stories as Lola, Wil and I get settled into our new routine.....

We will miss you guys at our Wednesday group too! I'm still emotional when I think about it... which doesn't make sense to me. Someone told me that weaning a baby can make you more emotional than usual. If that's true, I'm over the top. One more week to go and then I should be back to my "normal" self.
