Last week Layton cried way more than I was use to! This week he has done much better. Yesterday he started when we were walking back to his room. Today when we walked into the room is when the tears came. I always watch him through the window before I pick him up though to see what he is doing and how he is. Every time he is happy, playing and interacting. Today he was reading a book all to himself, my little super reader. It's amazing how much he loves to read. There are days when I read the same book 15 times. I can read Goodnight Moon without the book!
Daycare does have it's downsides. Layton came home with a little cough and runny nose last week. We are still trying to kick it this week so I guess it's time to head to the doctor tomorrow! Hopefully it's nothing major just a worried momma.
Layton's transitions between his dad and I are still a little tough on everyone involved. When Layton's not at my house I feel like it's too quite so I run errands and hang out with SV. I'm sure that with school starting and everything else I will by thankful for the downtime but every time is just as hard to say good-bye. This experience has defiantly taught me more than I ever bargained for. I'm it, the one-and-only. When Layton is at my house I have to run this ship on my own with no help. It has been a learning curve but we are working out the kinks and everyday gets even better. I'm also a technology nerd, being on my own has taught me more about putting down the electronics and turning off the TV more than any lecture. Quality time is the best time.
Today we played in the rain. Best day ever. I wish everyone could have seen the joy on that little boys face! Gave a whole new meaning to "Dancin' in the rain." All the neighbors were stoping, watching and laughing. Layton had not a care in the world... One of my favorite memories ever! =)
