First Day

Hannah started her first day of day care today. Sandy, a woman who lives about 3 blocks away and runs a daycare, is caring for Hannah. Sandy reminds me of Olga Trudeau, my grandmother, who also cared for me and taught me to play an assortment of card games. But enough about me...Four other girls attend Sandy's daycare and three of them live in our neighborhood. Sandy said that Hannah enjoyed watching these other girls during the course of the day

Sandy also created a log of Hannah's first day at daycare. I thought it was really sweet. Part of me thinks that Sandy prepared it to ease my discomfort of handing off Hannah for an entire day. Regardless of her motivation, I found the note touching and thought it was another milestone and a "first" worthy of recording in this blog.

4 months old

Hannah weighed in on June 30th at 14 lb 5 oz and 23 inches. She is a very sweet, happy girl and loves to laugh and socialize, but has been known to be a party pooper from time to time, literally speaking. She is not ashamed to drop a massive BM in even the most formal events. Hannah is still sleeping 10 - 12 hours a night. Around the 4th of July she seems to be teething.
