Grace is hopeful that they’ll get to play with bubbles again today at daycare– they make her laugh out loud; especially yesterday when one landed on her nose and *POP* away it went. (It’s the small things in life)

You mean you’re leaving???

So Grace found out today that several of her day care friends are ‘graduating’ at the end of this week. Come March, Diana, Emerson & maybe Sam are all going to the 1 year old room. This is nice from the biting perspective, since we know that one of the older kids was the biter, [...]
5 months old!

Grace likes her Bumbo seat; it allows her to get in on the action and sit up all by herself. At 5 months old, she’s almost able to sit up by herself, she’s a champ at rolling over, she’s drooling as if she’ll cut a tooth any day (although we still don’t see where it [...]
Bite, Growl, Bite.
Posted in daycare, Greg's Take on February 7, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Grace was bitten at Day Care. Makes you think — why do people bite each other? The developmental psychology speaks at length of indetermined expression, anxiety, inability to represent feelings of frustration, etc. Some references even maintain that it’s a sign of affection. Hmmm. It is indeed a threatening thought to consider one grown-up biting [...]
Cowgirls rule!

Today, because Grace is going to see her Great Aunt Jenny this weekend, Grace opted for her cowgirl outfit complete with boots (that she had not yet had a chance to kick off in this photo). While Mama loves the outfit for the cute little horses all over the overalls, Grace likes the sweater. She [...]
Substitute teacher

So I remember being that kid that tried to push the envelope, just a little bit when there was a subsitute teacher. Nothing outrageous, just a little, to see what I could get away with. I wonder if Grace will be this way. Today when we went into daycare, Ms. Fiori wasn’t there, and Katina, [...]
Play time!

Grace is starting her morning off right– she’s the darling of the infant room, surrounded by AJ, Sam and Emerson (who is not in the picture). What more could a girl want? Perhaps a tasty toy to play with. Yesterday when we came to pick her up, Brandy had two soft dolls that she was [...]
Back in the saddle again

Grace is back at day care full days and is doing well. In honor of being ‘back in the saddle’ again, she wore the cowboy boots her Godmother Wanda gave her. She immediately kicked them off upon entering the infant room (she was just following Mama & Daddy’s lead– because so many of the children [...]
Grace misses daycare

Grace is confused by the fact that she got the typical two days home with Mama & Dad, but now, she’s having a 3rd day home. She likes Mama & Daddy, but her friends at daycare taste better. She’s looking forward to tomorrow with hope. Until then, she’ll have to settle for this picture with [...]
Commentary on sleep
Posted in daycare, Grace and Abby on January 15, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
For the first week or so of daycare, Grace was only taking tiny little cat naps– 25-35 minutes 3 times a day. At home, she was taking 45 minute to 1.5 hour naps (also 3 times a day). This was a concern for me, but I was assured that sometimes there is just a period [...]
