Week of the Young Child

Week 4 into the back to work/daycare adventure and we are doing pretty well. I'm getting the hang of a loose morning routine and Augie is excelling at daycare. At the end of each day I get a sheet telling me when he napped, had diaper changes, ate (and how much), etc. The sheets also have an area for the child's disposition (i.e. fussy, happy, etc).  Up until last week nothing has been circled. I think everyone was still getting an idea of his personality. Last week Augie came home with three papers stating that he was cheerful! Awe...love it. I thoroughly enjoy having a smiley kiddo.

The past week was Week of the Young Child at the Ryan Jury Center and nationally. The theme: "Early Years are Learning Years." To celebrate the week each different day had it's own dress up theme, which not only did the kids participate, but the teachers did too. Here's a run down of the days:

Monday-Pajama Day



Tuesday-Team Day-We aren't so into sports teams, so Augie wore a "Daddy's Allstar" sleeper. No picture...sorry...there will never be a picture of Augie wearing this outfit, because it was the first outfit to ever be thrown away. Augie had a MAJOR blowout at daycare, successfully covering Miss Jen, who was "this close" to giving the guy a bath....haha.

Wednesday-Crazy Mismatch Day




Thursday-Dress up Clothes Day-I was off this day so Augie didn't "dress up"

Friday-Tie-Dye Shirt Day- We were asked to bring in a white onesie or shirt so the teachers could dye them the room's colors. Augie's room color was purple. I was being frugal and took a white polo onesie that we already had and had them dye that. Augie looked pretty cool in his purple get up.



One a side note, I think the Ryan Jury Center is fabulous. The teachers and administrative staff have been nothing but nice. There is a parents room, where I can feed the munchkin at lunch time. They have an open door policy for parents to come and go throughout the day. Mostly Augie is having fun...

38 Weeks (and counting) Belly pic

Now we're getting antsy. I hit uncomfortable a few weeks ago...I can deal with that. Now we are just antsy to meet the little guy and introduce him to his family and friends. I think Andy & I are in fast forward mode all of a sudden, just wanting the time to fly by... Looking at pictures from last week it appears I may have dropped slightly...maybe?...maybe not? I guess I can sort of breath a little easier. I'm not waddling like many people say you do when this happens...I'm just slow...haha. I'm not nesting either. I've posted to Facebook to tell friends what I've been up to and they say I am, but really that's just me. I'm totally anal retentive and a perfectionist and have to have things in their place. This is my norm. Not anything new.  38 weeks 37 weeks As the time draws near my patients at work continue to say things like, "You're still here?" and "Had that baby yet?" (most annoying question ever). Ye...

4/17/11: Carlyle Pizza Scramble

A & I went to Carlyle Brewery last night for dinner before hitting Spring ArtScene 2011 . Dinner was great, as was ArtScene, where we ran into some old friends. We had some leftovers of our pepperoni, green & black olive and mushroom pizza and instead of hitting our usual Sunday morning breakfast spot, Mary's Market , we decided to re-create our amazing pizza scramble. Just added red peppers, green onion, a dash of zesty pepper jack cheese and eggs to the mix w/a side of avocado and toast w/honey.....mmmmm. Oh yeah and a bit of Carlyle Stout to round out the meal. What a great way to start a stay at home Sunday!
