Zeeke
started day care this week, just Thursday and Friday, but it was a
big deal for all of us. Zeeke cried at drop off (as did we all) and
then again when we came to pick him up, a sort of emotional release,
we think, combining a lot of feelings. Still they say he did great
and they post pictures every once in a while so that we can see what
he's up to. Zeeke has started to go to to bed without crying some
nights, which is lovely.
Zeeke's favorite book of the week: Jazz Baby by Lisa Wheeler & R. Gregory Christie.
Monday, Karen's mom came to help Karen work on the garden. Zeeke was very unhappy while they worked. Later they had a play date with Erin & Kate where they traded some toys.
Tuesday, at their weekly library visit, Zeeke did really well playing on his own and trying to mingle with the other kids. That night, we all went to Trader Joe's to find new things for Zeeke's lunch.
Wednesday, Karen took Zeeke to Chestnut Hill for one last visit with Jen & the twins before she has to return to work. Zeeke refused to nap with the twins as he has been doing the last 2 weeks. After dinner, they met up with Steve at the park.
Saturday, we had a great trip to the Please Touch Museum with Tara & Moira, then had lunch at Han Dynasty.
Sunday, Lindsay & Dena babysat while we brunched at the Moshulu.
