First day of Mother's Day Out



It was this cute boy's first day of Mother's Day Out Program.  He had a blast!  He cried loudly for a bit when I took him in, but he quickly warmed up to his new teachers.  They said he made friends with a little girl in his class named Piper and they talked jibberish to each other all day.  How cute is that?!

They were also impressed that he ate every last bite of his lunch.  No surprise to me though.  Declan loves to eat.

He colored his very first picture for his mommy today.


Yes, I teared up a bit.  And, yes, it is already hanging on the refrigerator waiting for a proper picture frame.  What can I say?  I am a proud mommy.

Can we also talk about these moms who have small children and somehow manage to look fantastic all the time?  Clearly they must know some secret that I do not.  I am lucky if I manage to look semi-decent.  I usually go out wearing yoga pants, whatever shirt is clean, hair pulled back in a ponytail, and no make-up. ( See first picture.)  And this is after I spent half an hour showering, trying to dry my hair,  and successfully straightening exactly one half of my hair before I have Miller crying and Declan trying to lick the dog.

Maybe someday I will go somewhere looking like I didn't just roll out of bed but until then, it's a ponytail and yoga pants for me.
