Daycare update~

I just can't say enough how happy I am with our new daycare situation. Everything has been wonderful so far, but take a look at the road that leads to Miss Amy's house!!! This pic was actually taken after I dropped him off and I was headed to work. This gravel road runs into a very hilly, narrow farm road (pic to the right) that leads to another farm road that leads to a main highway. The road to her house is pretty scary, especially in bad weather, but in most cases of bad weather, school will be cancelled and driving won't be an issue. It is a small price to pay for daycare that you trust and feel comfortable with though.
For those of you that have wanted an update, here goes:
Amy has texted me between 3 and 15 times per day all week. She sends me pictures and updates on what Tanner is up to. Let me just say, I LOVE THAT!!!! No more than a couple of hours seem to go by without me knowing what he is up to. Tanner was in her care all five days this week and I do not have one single complaint! Everything went quite well. Some days I dropped him off at her house and took
her middle school kids to school; other days I met her at school and she took him back home after dropping off her children. Some days I took the kids home after school and picked him up then, and some days she brought him to me as she picked up the kids. We text each afternoon to figure out a gameplan. Next week will be different as the other baby she watches (14 mo old) will be back in town. I work with his mother and they have been on vacation, so this was a good week to start on since it gave Miss Amy more one-on-one time with Tanner, and Tanner got to know her 10.5 mo old son, prior to having all three together. All in all, I am very pleased with our new situation.Things have been busy around the house...Tobin got his deer mounted for his Christmas present. He stares at it all evening kind of like I look through my scrapbooks. It's funny to me, only because I cannot even begin to relate. But, it makes him happy as a lark and therefore, I am happy. It was cute hearing him show it to Tanner! We are both off tomorrow and I can't wait to try to sleep in somewhat!! I hope everyone has a great weekend!
