We all survived our first day in daycare!

We got to daycare yesterday and they had a big sign saying "Welcome Logan! We've been waiting for you!"

I cried when I left him, but once I was at work it got much better.

I went over at lunch and peeked in first - he was in the bouncy chair and was laughing at the daycare worker.

I walked in and when he heard me speak, his face got really serious, he looked around and when he saw me he broke into the BIGGEST smile. Chat Icon

I fed him his lunchtime bottle, and then they took him back to rock him to sleep.

When I picked him up at 3:00, same thing. He was all happy and smiley.

And on his "report card" it said he took an afternoon nap...IN HIS CRIB!!!

He NEVER does that for me!! Chat Icon

They sent me picutres via email all day so I could see what he was doing and when I picked him up they were all hugging and kissing him goodbye.

Then I got to play with him from 3:30 to 5:30, he took a quick nap, bath and bed. He passed out at 8:00.

I really couldn't have asked for a better day.

It was so much better than I thought it would be. Chat Icon

Thanks for everyone who talked me through it. Chat Icon

OMG that sounds like the BEST DAYCARE EVER!! Pictures all day! You are a lucky girl. I am lucky if I call and get the manager to tell me whats going on.

I am glad you got through it.

How wonderful of them...it is nice to see that they are really in tune to your needs as well in trying to make you feel more at ease. You'll have to tell me again who you're using just in case my daycare doesn't work out. Photos during the day is so above and beyond. I love it!

I'm so glad it went so well for the both of you!! I'm sorry I didn't see your post from the day before - I've been SO busy... I would have wanted to respond, being that I just went through this in August.
