First Week of Daycare

Maylee is being watched by our neighbor Allison who is a stay at home mother with three young girls.  It is so nice to be able to just walk across the yard to drop her off and pick her up.  Her first week went really well.  Maylee takes a bottle and sleeps great for Allison.  Her little girls really like Maylee.  I think having Alison watch Maylee for 4 half days towards the end of Kevin and me staying at home with Maylee helped with the transition.  We also started practicing with a bottle after she had a great established latch and was about 2 weeks old.

We had arranged for a lady up the road to watch her.  However, when I called this lady to see if they could meet and get to know each other she informed me that she decided to go back to work two weeks prior.  I wanted to say "You didn't think about calling us since you knew we were planning on you for daycare since August!"  Kevin and I panicked since many places don't take newborns.  We probably just dodged a bullet with that situation since Allison is working out so great!
