Big Changes at Chez Meeks
Today was the first time Sarah and Lucy were away from Sherri and I and not with anyone we knew. Actually let me rephrase that slightly so you don't think we are terrible parents. Today was the first time Sarah and Lucy spent time with their new day care person. Sherri is back to work on Tuesday and I am back to work next Monday, so we are trying to introduce them slowly to the concept of not being with Mummy, Daddy or either of their older sisters.
We got a few names of day care people in our area via a service called WeeWatch, which puts families in contact with day care people. They vet all of the providers and do the necessary background checks. The two we interviewed were in our area, but the one we chose is just 2 streets over from us, so I will walk the babies over in the morning and Sherri will pick them up after work.
Today we left the babies over there for just an hour, which was still a bit of a wrench when we had to leave, but they seemed happy enough. The hour flew past. When we went to pick them up, it was like we hadn't left. In fact they seemed happy to staym but we are going to the Ottawa Ex today, so wanted to make sure they had a bit of a nap before we left. The Ex is like a big fair that happens in Ottawa every year. We haven't been for a few years now, so it will be nice to see how it has changed. I'm sure the babies will enjoy seeing all the people and fun things to do.
So there you have it, big changes at Chez Meeks. Oh by the way, I'm now using Google's PicasaWeb to upload new photos. I'll try to get them amalgamated into the main site soon, but in the mean time you can view them by clicking HERE. Let me know what you think.
