Maintaining

It has definitely been a few weeks since I posted. I have survived my first two weeks back at work and Evan is surviving daycare. It does break my heart that he cries every morning. But I am assured that he stops in a few minutes and generally has a great day. We have our new morning routine down. Sometimes he wakes up on his own and other times he needs a little nudging (of course, he still ends up sleeping with us every night). Luckily he generally wakes up in a good mood. Since he is so used to eating when he gets up, I generally give him a yogurt drink and a few cheerios. We leave the house by 7:20 to head to daycare and then I am off to work. I will be starting a new project at work next week so definitely say a prayer for me on TWTH’s as those days are going to be pretty stressful.

Since Evan loves the water so much, Granna (my Mom) has started taking him to the YWCA and has signed him up for lessons to help him get used to the water. He will be able to take swimming lessons once he turns 3. She said he had a grand time the other day. He splashed, laid on his back, pushed off the side of the pool and jumped in. Mom said the staff was very impressed with his love of the water. I hope he does well and doesn’t develop a fear of the water. Someone said he might be the next Michael Phelps. Maybe so! Wouldn’t swimming be cheaper than golf?
