My first day at daycare....

Today was Meredith's first day at daycare. Todd and I both went to drop her off and as soon as we got to her room Ms. Liz took her and Meredith turned to me and Todd and gave us the cheesy face, as to say you can leave now.

That was 7:45 am.

Todd and I headed off to work just waiting for our cell phones to ring being the daycare telling us to come and get her. But as we wait the call never came. I finally couldn't wait any longer and at 9:53am I called to check on her. The director said that she hadn't cried at all and she ran to the room to look in on her and she just started crying because someone took her block.

At 1:00pm I leave work so that I can pick up Meredith sparing her from a full day her first day. I got to the daycare and Meredith is asleep on her cot. Ms. Liz asked me to come back at 2 because that is when nap time is over. So off I head to the house to load the dishwasher and eat some lunch.

At 2:00pm I returned and there she sat all smiles and ready for snack time.

Ms. Liz said she ate really good and had some difficulty with the sippy cups. We knew this would be a problem because Meredith only likes cups with straws. So I've been given special permission to bring Meredith's sippy cup from home. But other than that everything went great. Now as for tomorrow, it all my be different when she realizes that we are leaving her again. We'll just have to wait and see.


Here is Meredith getting ready for her first day of daycare. Thanks Aunt Lib for this really cute outfit.

Veronica, what a great transition she has made!
I am sure it is because of you and Todd and your loving parenting ways. :)

We want to come and visit and finally get to meet Meredith.
Email me and let me know when is a good time.
We also could do the zoo or a splash park that Roxanne had shared with us last summer.

I'm sure daycare was harder on you than it was on Meredith. ;) I'm glad the day was easy on her.

We've made it past the 7 week mark....

how many more to go??? That's the million dollar question. We are just sitting and wondering when will we get out. We are still hoping and praying for a previo free stay in PGN. I find myself hitting the send/receive button on my email every couple of minutes, and ever time my cell phone rings my heart drops. This waiting is almost unbearable. But everyone tells me that NO news is GOOD news where PGN is concerned. On a down note, my friend Keely found out yesterday that she received a previo on Friday for something totally ridiculous. But thankfully she went right back in that day. As for our weekly update, it was the same as it has been for 7 weeks. We are still in PGN waiting for approval.

Busy Busy Weekend..

Well Todd and I have had a very busy weekend. Ever since we found out that Meredith is here we've been going in overdrive. As you can see we finished up the nursery this weekend. We will put the changing table together sometime this week, the crib was challenge enough for one day. Oh and the border (that one piece deal didn't work too good Becky). Oh and Todd says if he sees one more thing Hello Kitty, he's going to hurl. hahaha But anyway the room is painted, the border hung, and the crib is put together. The only thing that's missing is Meredith!!! We haven't heard anything else since Tuesday, I'll try to get some more information this week, but it's doubtful that the agency will know anything new. They said we would get our next round of pictures in about 5 weeks.
