I am glad I started back to work a couple weeks before they started daycare. I had time to adjust to being away from them. I knew they were in good, loving hands when they were their daddy.
Tuesday, our world and their world changed. They are attending a Christian based school three whole blocks from our house. The women there are amazing and so caring. Although that makes it easier, it is still so hard to accept the fact that they are essentially being raised by other people.
Tuesday, Jeremy got them dressed and ready for their first day of "school". As he set them down in the infant room. He handed over the last of the supplies we needed to bring. He kissed them and started to prepare to leave. Harper gave him the frowniest frown and let one tear drip down her cheek. This act, of course, left Jeremy feeling awful. Although, he swears he didn't cry-cry...he did leave in a hurry. Luckily, I will hardly ever be the one dropping them off in the morning.
I get the pleasure of picking them up and seeing their sweet faces. I swear they look at me like they are SO happy to see me. They seem to love daycare and they have them on a pretty strict schedule. We thought we did but they take scheduling to a whole other level.
I can't get over that they are "teaching" 3 month old babies. They have done all kinds of activities this week. Here are their day sheets we get each day:
Colors in Spanish! What?! We are going to have genius babies!
They are still sleeping through the night and going down for bed with no issues. They are just awesome babies!
More twin spam for you. Have a great weekend!
I think I will be like you and have a difficult time going back to work. At least when the are still babies, I want to be the one home with them! I don't think we will have a choice though, financially. We'll see....Amazing what your daycare is doing with them though! Incredible that they are already working on those types of things when they are so little. Pretty cool actually.
ReplyDeleteMax and Harper are adorable and getting so big! Is it just me, or do they really look a lot alike? They are definitely brother and sister, tha is for sure :)
