Here we go again, 5:30am on Wednesday...day three of full time. Tuesday went a bit better then Monday I suppose. We dropped Peanut off happy and ready for the day. When I went to feed her at lunch she didn't eat all that much because she still wasn't use to the idea, but I did get to play with her and some of the toys there while I was waiting for Mike to pick me up. I also go to talk to some of the ladies so that was kind of nice. She ended up napping more yesterday then Monday so that was a relief. She napped for a total of an hour and twenty minutes, much better then 35min! Although they did say she was fussy in the afternoon and just wanted to be held. We did have another stage 10 meltdown in the car though and we didn't even use the "little blue hat" (I think that can cause the meltdown most of the time). Once we got her home and out of the car seat, aka "mini prison" in her opinion, she was a happy little girl. We actually made it about 15 minutes later for bedtime last night so that was something (yes it was still light out and the blinds had to be closed to pretend it was actually night). She took longer to get to bed last night so that wasn't much fun for anyone. It seems her crying has increased in volume lately, I don't know if she's learning new tips and tricks from her friends at school or is just getting stronger lungs but let me tell you, when she is having her bedtime meltdown my ears ring! She finally fell asleep being bounced on the ball around 9:30, yes we started almost 3 hours before that. Some days we wonder what on earth we possibly did with all of our free time before Peanut joined us. Work is going alright, mostly it's still an adjustment so my eyes are falling out of my head by the afternoon but eventually I'll get used to it. I asked my manager about 4 - 10 hour days and she is okay with it but is going to check with her manager.....so I am waiting patiently in hopes that I can work 10 hour days, if only i could do 4 - 8 hour days instead! Today's picture is the infamous "little blue hat" that can cause stage 10 meltdowns. This picture is from the morning and we don't have meltdowns then...just smiles so that's much better. Happy Wednesday!
