Summer is almost over!

I can't believe how fast this summer has gone and how fast my little man has grown! I have loved being able to be home with him all summer....and it makes me so sad to leave him as I return to work.

Today was his first day back at the babysitter so that I could go to school and work in my classroom and he did not have a good day. I put him down to nap before I left and she said once he woke up he was crying. She was really sweet and tried everything to get him to be happy but she said he kept looking around then looked at her and would start to cry. Luckily daddy got off work early and went to pick him up earlier than I was able to. Poor guy, I guess it is going to take some time to transition from being away from mommy & daddy all day! It breaks my heart but I know that he will be fine after a few days and he gets in a routine, and realizes that we will pick him up. I didn't realize seperation anxiety could start so young.....so poor Mrs. Rachael (babysitter) got to listen to Drake's high pitch scream for most of afternoon!! It is an awful scream, but my mom says it is payback cause I would scream like that as a baby as well.

Tonight is night one for Drake to sleep in his crib in his room. I know, I know he is almost 6 months but I loved him being so close to us at night. So he is out of playpen by our bed and into his own room and crib!! Luckily we have one of those camera baby monitors so I have the little tv by my bed so I can check on him throughout the night. He is the best thing in the world!

Okay well I will write again soon and let you know how sleeping goes in his crib. He has been sleeping so good at night (8 or 8:30pm until 7 or 7:30am) so hopefully he will do just as well in crib! Have a great night!
