Incident at Daycare

Last week, Kiley was bitten by a little boy at daycare. My first question to Ms. Kim was, "Did Kiley do something to get bit?" As we all know, most kids bit for a reason. Well, Kiley was trying to take the little boys cookies at snack time. Can't say that I blame the kid for biting her. I ask for them to be separated at snack time because I can't guaranty that my little piglet won't do it again. Kiley and I had a talk about taking things that aren't hers, but not sure she understood a word of what I said. I had to chuckle a little at the situation. My little one likes to eat!

Is that MY daughter...

I have been saying for months now that I am not cut out to be a stay at home mom. I just like to be on the move, socializing, and have somewhat of a routine. I hated to say it, but I was ready to go back to work. Kiley was becoming a little "needy". I also felt that she was just "over" me. Boy, I couldn't have been more right. It has been 2 days now, and she cries when I come and pick her up from daycare. She acknowledges my presence, brings me a toy, and then she goes on about her business. Can we say that she pretty much resembles my habits? So, I guess I have to continue work, while my daughter enjoys her work (school) as well. She has also started going to bed with out being rocked or cuddled. Tonight when JC and I told her night- night and put her in bed, she didn't even cry. Kind of makes me feel a little sad.

Family Fun

Well, I can't believe that Kiley and I made the trip to Illinois by ourselves. Was I crazy? However, the 12 hour car ride was not so bad. Kiley was a trooper! We are so happy that we were able to visit with family. I don't think I have ever packed so much in one week before. Unfortunately, the weather didn't quite cooperate with all that we had planned. It rained everyday, with 90% humidity....yuck! We were able to find time to shop, swim, play at the park, go out for pizza (twice), attend a carnival, and visit with family and friends.
