Mike and Henry started daycare this week. They went Mon-Thursday for a few hours to get used to it. I needed at place to take them so I could go to my dr appts now that Joe is gone. The first few days Mike went right in and started playing. Then out of no where I took him and he started sobbing and saying "no, don't go. I berry love you." It was so sad. I felt like the worst parent on the planet. Henry on the other hand cries everyday I take him. His teacher said on Thursday that he finally was down on the floor playing with the other kids. He usually just wants to play in the crib. I think this is a direct result of his bother terrorizing him at home so he is afraid to be on the ground and prefers to be where he feels safe.
They are extremely professional. Each day they make a report card telling what the kids ate, what time, when they had their diaper changed etc. And for Henry they change his diaper every 1/2 hour. That seems a little excessive but I guess that's what they like to do. They even have internet access so I can go and check on them during the day.
The only down side is GERMS! They have only been for a week and Mike already has croup! We spent 4 hours in the emergency room last night. That was after I had already been at the dr that morning and they said they didn't hear anything wrong. Maybe I should get a new dr! :)
So, the first week without Joe has been kind of lonley. Everyday around 5 Mike starts asking where his dad is. So we go on the computer and look at picutres of the helicopter and the ship.
Joe seems like he's doing fine. He says life is a little boring, but I am thinking he could probably use a little of that. They are starting to plan for their mission now so things should be picking up. He flew last night but I haven't heard how it went yet.
That's it for now!
