Welcome Summer!

We'll keep our fingers crossed that summer is here to stay but you never know in this area. Esme and I are still going to the parent-baby class on Tuesday mornings and today there was a guest presenter who taught us all about music and movement with babies. There was a lot of singing and rolling around which pooped Esme out by the end of class. Then we enjoyed a nice walk along Lake Washington and some play time at the park. Once we got home we layed out under the big tree in the backyard cause she loves to look at the light that comes through the leaves.

The transition to daycare has gone really well. I drop Esme off around 8am, unless I have to do newborn rounds at the hospital in which case it's earlier. I fill out a "communication sheet" with the times of her last feeding and last diaper change, and then give Faye the 3 bottles of my pumped milk. She's the only infant there and everyone seems to love her. Then Allen picks her up around 4pm and they get some bonding time before I get home. Faye sends the paper home letting us know how much she ate that day, the times she napped, and how many wet and poopy diapers she had. She got a little cold from daycare in her second week but it passed without any issues.

Ooohhh, and here's some good news - broccoli is back! I stopped eating it for awhile since it made Esme fussy but I reintroduced it without any issues. At most if makes her toot sometimes and I can definitely handle that :)
