A whole new world!

On August 23rd, 2011, Gusley started Pre-School! We have been talking about this day all summer long. I think he was very well prepared. Mommy on the other hand, not so much. I did hold all my tears back, but it was not easy leaving my baby bear on that first day, or any day so far and he only goes 2 days a week and we just finished week 4!  He tells us he "can't want to go to school", but once he is there and I leave his teacher says he is great!  After the first day, he told Jake that he was "all done"!  Oh to be so naive!  The first 2 weeks he teared up when I would pick him up and he would tell me that he needed to hug me.  The last 2 weeks he tears up when I am leaving in the morning and still wells up a little when he sees me in the afternoon.

First Day of Work and Nursery School

Today was a big day for both Gus and myself. I now have a part-time job at a local daycare center and today was my first day. I am fortunate that Gus is able to come with me to work and his class is right next door to the class that I am in. Here we are getting ready to walk out the door. I love how he is yawning before we even leave the house!

Well our first day on the job was not too bad. Considering he had his shots yesterday I think he acted pretty reasonable. He went almost 6 hours with no nap and when he crashed he crashed, but other than that the day was pretty uneventful....just more rain from Fay.
