Transitions & Changes, and Time for Friends

We have had a lot going on at our house. The weather has been nicer so that means more time for side walk chalk and playing with neighbors. Also special treats of ice cream and stopping by friends houses to chat.



We decided to transition Adlee to a full service daycare/early childhood development facility last week.  We are very grateful for her first and only in home daycare provider but decided it was time to move her into something more structured with more activities and learning.  She is doing exceptionally well and seems to really enjoy it.  I was nervous about her taking naps and eating the food but she napped well the first day and has ate really well.  She comes home talking about certain friends she has met and their names and such.  The good thing is this facility is 20 minutes from GC so she gets to ride with me half of the trip to work.  We can chat and listen to music and sing songs.  Right now her favorite song is The Wheels on the Bus.



We did not intend to have 2 major changes in Adlee's world at the same time but it so happened that she was climbing out of her crib so we had to transition her to a Toddler bed.  I can't say that that transition is going as smoothly right now.  She has a hard time going to bed at night and also staying in her bed during the night.  I am hoping this phase does not last very long.  I know with both transitions it is asking a lot of her little self to deal with so we are hoping that a little patience and time she will do better in her big girl bed.
